Manchester United Football Shirts
Manchester United are the most
successful team of the Premier League. Since the inception of the Premier
League in 1992, they have won the division more times than any other club.
During this time, they won a historic treble in 1999 and famously won the
league in 95/96 when Alan Hansen, a Liverpool legend turned pundit claimed you
would never 'win anything with kids'. This team are still remembered today as
the 'Class of 92' which included some legends of the modern game such as David
Beckham, Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs.
The Old Trafford turf has been
graced by some of the greatest players of any generation - the likes of George
Best, Cristiano Ronaldo, Eric Cantona, Sir Bobby Charlton, Wayne Rooney and
more recently Zlatan Ibrahimovic have all dawned the famous red jersey. With
over 600 million fans worldwide, the United shirt has always been a top seller
and has no signs of slowing up any time soon.
Man United Home Kit
During the wars, United didn't
have such a successful time on the pitch and experimented with alternative
strips. It wasn't until just before the start of the second World War when
United settled on, what is now, an iconic red home shirt. The 1992-94 home
shirt with the smart lace up white collar helped United to win their first
title in 26 years and was also the strip that helped them to a double win in 1994.
The home shirt is always red and
is worn with white shorts and black socks.
Man United Away Kit
The away kit has been variable in
recent years with United mainly settling for Navy, Black or White. An all black
away strip in the 93/94 season was the first of its kind and saw a relaxation
of the rules allowing teams to wear such shirts in the Premier League. In the
2001/02 season, Manchester United famously produced a reversible shirt of White
and Gold - this allowed fans to purchase their away kit and 3rd shirt at once.
This was popular amongst the United fans but hasn't been repeated since.
One of the most infamous kits was
the famous grey kit. With United trailing to Southampton, Sir Alex Ferguson
demanded the kit be changed at half time as he felt the players couldn’t see
each other. Suffice to say, it was never seen again!
Man United Kit History
In the early days where United
were previously known as Newton Heath, they had a green and gold top. However,
it wasn't until 1902 when John Henry Davies invested in the club, changed its
name to Manchester United, the club colours would change to red. Ever since
then apart from a couple of brief spells, the home shirt has always been the
iconic red most commonly associated with the Red Devils.
In 2008, 50 years on from the
Munich Air Disaster, Manchester United played against Manchester City in a
Premier League matched where they dawned an exact replica of the shirt worn by
the Busby Babes.
United have had a number of kit
suppliers, with Umbro backing the club in the 1990’s, including the famous
Champions League victory over Bayern Munich in 1999. The club then embarked on
a long and successful partnership with Nike. However, in 2015, Adidas signed up
to become Man United's new kit manufacturer in a world record £750m 10 year
deal.
