Rugby Australia CEO Phil Waugh said: "Few things capture the Australian spirit quite like the gold jersey and R.M.Williams boots. It's a privilege to extend this iconic partnership, ensuring that whenever the Wallabies and Wallaroos represent Australia domestically or overseas, they carry the very best of Australian craftsmanship with them.
"This renewal is a testament to our shared values of grit, excellence, and an unwavering commitment to Australian quality. To have a partner that supports both our Wallabies and Wallaroos with equal passion is vital as we continue to grow the game. We look forward to seeing the gold jersey and the iconic R.M.Williams boot side-by-side for years to come."
R.M.Williams CEO, Paul Grosmann said: "R.M.Williams was built on the same values that define Australian rugby - hard work, resilience, and an uncompromising standard of quality.
"Renewing this partnership through to 2029 is something we're genuinely proud of.
"Seeing the Wallabies and Wallaroos pull on our boots before they walk out to represent Australia is a moment that never gets old.
"This next chapter is about taking that pride further - bringing fans into the story and building something that goes well beyond the boot."
