The 2022 Wallabies First Nations jersey is designed by Dennis Golding, a Kamilaroi/Gamilaraay artist from Redfern in Sydney. Golding’s artwork pays tribute to the 14 past Indigenous Wallabies, with the designs pictured alongside the natural ochre tones of the jersey.

Mark Brunton, Managing Director for ASICS Oceania said

“For this new iteration of the classic design, we leaned into the heritage of the gold that connects us all. The 2022 Wallabies jersey is dedicated as much to the fans as it is to the players. Not only are we, as spectators, inspired by the incredible athletes on the field, but the athletes are inspired and motivated by the fans. This is the uplifting power of sport in Australia and this gold jersey has the ability to unite us as one.”
