Absolute Jaffa is a cricket and citrus brand born from a grove that has been in the family since 1877. We grow fruit encased in hand-stitched red leather, with a raised seam that runs from pole to pole. When a bowler sends down an absolute jaffa (a perfect, unplayable delivery) it is because, whether they know it or not, they are bowling with one of ours.

We make grove workwear and artisan citrus provisions for the people who love cricket and everything around it: the afternoon light, the sound of leather on willow, the second glass of something cold at the interval. Our workwear is not for the players. It is for the people who watch, who care, who know exactly what a jaffa is and why it matters.

We are not a sportswear brand. We are not a performance brand. We are the people who would rather talk about the tea interval than the run rate, and we make things for people who feel the same way.

The Members' Enclosure

For five generations, the grove has kept its own counsel. The gates stayed closed, the harvest stayed quiet, and the secret of the seam remained between family. But some things are too good to keep to yourself forever. We are opening the gates. If you love cricket the way we love cricket (more than is probably reasonable) then you belong here. Leave your name at the gate and we will let you know when the Members' Enclosure opens.
