Benetton Formula Team-Issue Rugby Shirt | Mal Lang Collection

A rare Benetton Formula team-issue rugby shirt from the Mal Lang Collection.

This original rugby was issued for use within the Benetton Formula team and comes directly from the personal collection of Mal Lang, whose career with the organization began during the Toleman years and continued through its evolution into Benetton Formula.

Included with the listing is a period photograph of Mal wearing this exact shirt, providing documented provenance and a direct connection to its original owner.

Constructed from heavyweight cotton and finished in Benetton’s distinctive pink and green colorway, the shirt features oversized Benetton Formula graphics across the chest, a traditional rugby collar, and the bold design language that became synonymous with one of Formula One’s most recognizable teams.

Unlike licensed retail merchandise, team-issued apparel was produced for those working within the organization and was never intended for public sale. Examples with documented provenance are increasingly difficult to find, making this a compelling piece for collectors of vintage Formula One memorabilia and Benetton history.
