We designed this lookbook around the heavyweight rugby shirt—a cornerstone of the 2025–2026 Collegiate Sporty revival. With its structured woven drill collar, concealed rubber buttons, and substantial cotton jersey drape, the striped rugby shirt bridges the gap between a casual sweatshirt and a collared button-down. Tuck or drape it over high-waisted pleated dress pants and finish with leather penny loafers and a silver signet ring for elevated campus poise.
