Official Nike France home rugby shirt from 2010. The jersey was a special edition version, manufactured for France's match against England in the 2010 Six Nations.

In the context of French rugby, particularly in social media banter before matches against England (known as "Le Crunch"), the term crémaillère is used in the phrase "pendre la crémaillère" to mean "hanging" or "hooking" the English team.

This is Nike's superior 'player issue' version of the jersey, as worn by the players. It features a tight fitting design, an upgraded material mix, reinforced panels & stitching for increased durability.

The condition of this vintage rugby jersey is 9/10 – Superb (see photos).

During the opener of the World Cup 2007, Argentina defeated France 17–12. However, after defeating Ireland 25–3, France qualified for the quarter-finals. After defeating the New Zealand All Blacks 20–18, they lost to England 14–9 in the semi-final. France then lost for a second time to Argentina 34–10 in the third-place match. In 2010, France won its ninth Grand Slam.
