Manchester United x Originals | adidas bring us down memory lane
What do we love the most when looking back at football in the 90’s? Is it the legends? Maybe the classic boots or the matches? It’s all of the above but we can’t forget the amazing kits that were used! Time to take a step back and look back at the good old days - the 90’s.
Manchester United x Originals
The oversized shirts with the very different patterns and designs is something we all wish to see more of these days and therefore we’re very happy to see that adidas are bringing back a 90’s inspired shirt with Manchester United!
A red and white home shirt with a darker red graphic just works so well and it really makes the retro-logo stand out with its white details. Adding the sleeves and collar we really have that 90's feeling we all adore and miss.
The inspiration behind the shirt is the 90/91 shirt that were used by legends such as Steve Bruce, Paul Ince and Lee Sharpe as Manchester United ended their 5 season trophy drought by beating Barcelona 2-1 in Rotterdam for the European Cup Winners' Cup.
Take a look at the shirt below and we’ll look more into it further down

We can’t talk about retro kits and not mention the goalkeepers. The ‘keeper shirts in this era were always something special. With the green and black stripes that look like sound waves and the high collar this shirt really is something for the retro fans that wish to wear something special this summer.
