The Chiefs play their home games in predominantly black shirts with red around the collar and down the sides, white sleeves with yellow flashes. The team emblem is a warrior looking to the sky holding a Maori club. The supporters are well known for brandishing inflated versions of the club and also ringing cow bells to drive their team to greater exertions.
