Northampton Saints are delighted to announce a new two-year relationship with Raging Bull, with the lifestyle clothing brand joining the Club’s stable of suppliers to provide casualwear for the team, coaches and support staff.
Founded by former England and British & Irish Lions prop, Phil Vickery MBE, Raging Bull is an established lifestyle brand – with customers across the globe who are attracted to their focus on quality and timeless style.
Following a distinguished playing career, which saw him pick up a Rugby World Cup winners medal in 2003, Vickery created the brand with an aim to keep its principles in line with those of rugby players and clubs – integrity, pride, and passion.
As official casualwear supplier to Northampton Saints, Raging Bull will provide clothing for the men in Black, Green and Gold to wear post-match, while the Club’s supporters will also be able to take advantage of discounted prices on Raging Bull’s online store in the coming months. Raging Bull are also an affiliate on the Club’s Membership programme, meaning Saints supporters can also earn extra Reward Points when shopping online with them.
“We’re thrilled to begin a new relationship with Raging Bull, a clothing company where rugby is part of the fabric of the brand,” said Ulundi Makhanya, Director of Commercial Partnerships at Northampton Saints.
“Elite rugby creates some unusual body shapes, and producing clothing which not only fits everyone from a nimble scrum-half to a towering lock, but also is both practical and fashionable, is no easy task!
“In Raging Bull, we have a supplier with rugby at its core, who pride themselves on being able to kit out people of all shapes and sizes.”

“So, we are very excited to be working alongside them from this season onwards, and are confident we can help them to grow their brand through a number of innovative activations with our supporters and players.”
Raging Bull are dedicated to constantly improving their products and finding new ways to reduce their impact on the planet, by dropping their carbon footprint and creating sustainable habits for the future.
As well as traditional styles, Raging Bull also offers fashion-led garments which appeal to younger audiences and they are constantly evolving their range.
Vickery said: “In my 15 years as a professional rugby player with Gloucester and then Wasps, I had the pleasure of running out at cinch Stadium at Franklin’s Gardens on many occasions, and I am thrilled to begin this new relationship with Northampton Saints.
“It is a Club steeped in history, always looking for ways to improve both on and off the pitch, with an incredibly dedicated and passionate group of supporters. So, to see the Raging Bull being worn by Saints’ players and staff at the Gardens will be an honour for me.”

“Given our heritage in rugby, the opportunity to work with Saints is ideal. Offering premium-quality clothing which is also great value for money is always at the core of what we do, and we’re excited to grow this new relationship and show Northampton’s supporters what we’re all about.”
