Classic kit

Apparently Arsenal will revert back to this absolute classic next season.

How good would it be if we dug out the ribeiro!?

The Ribero one was minging, even at the time. The Birdshit kit.

I’d buy one of these and sit and watch Fever Pitch on repeat

The Adidas quartered home shirt from Waddle’s era please.

Ribero kit was horrible
The adidas quartered shirt was also rubbish....i was gutted because when we had adidas we had a great opportunity to design an absolute classic and we mucked it up coming up with a bast-ard rovers replica !

Would love us to do something to replicate our brilliant V strip and another classic one would be the simple claret "frank casper" crew neck.

I like to see us in the 73 kit with BFC instead of the badge blue cuffs and blue band for the collar
Loved that strip

1994, commemorative Wembley shirt I think.

My mum’s washing machine chewed one of the arms up on mine.

We put out a rancid limited addition kit for the 93 94 playoffs final at wembley
Theirs one going for 80 quid on ebay

moaninclaret · Post by **moaninclaret** » Fri Jan 18, 2019 2:08 pm

Thanks BurnleyFC, my lads still got one although hes out grown it now, wont part with it though

Surely the Green and Black Half shirt was terrible... I cannot remember us winning away in it.

It might be a false memory ... but I seem to remember a team arriving without their kit for some reason .. and they wore that kit, and we beat them

That's the one. They were horrific to look at when you had a hangover. My missus threw mine away - along with the 1993-94 Mitre shirt, the 2000 promotion shirt and some classic Iron Maiden tour t-shirts - by going to one of those places where they weigh in the clothes.

Remarkably, we're still married.

Gets mentioned every now and then on here. I think it was Southend and I think they were top of the league at the time. Think it was 4/5 - 0 to us.

We had an away kit that was yellow with black stripes at one point. Think it was the season back in the Championship after we beat Stockport at Wembley. 94/95 maybe?

Sausage · Post by **Sausage** » Fri Jan 18, 2019 2:49 pm

It was definitely Southend and we beat them 5-1. I think they turned up with their red away kit and the ref wouldn't let them use it. So we gave them the green and black kit (which was the previous season's 1993-94 away kit; the 1994-95 kit was yellow with black stripes).

Love the Aresnal kit in the opening post - reminds me of the 'good old days'! I can picture Ian Wright and David Rocastle in it now!

Our '92 Ribero home kit wasn't a nice kit...but was synonymous with an incredible season. I had all 3 kits that season as an 11 year old - really liked the away kits actually.

I suppose

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Fri Jan 18, 2019 3:59 pm

The yellow and black one was 1994 95. Classic kit that would still look good now. Remember getting the full kit for my birthday and playing out in it despite it being winter and then going to a reserves match in it.

I loved the jade and black one. Even if we were awful in it.

The limited edition yellow one was awful. We didnt even wear it thank god.

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Fri Jan 18, 2019 3:59 pm

As for Arsenal. All of there yellow kits especially 80s and 90s were amazing.

Me too. I thought it was really cool.

My favourite top from recent decades was the one from the Kevin Ball era, the one with no sponsors logo on.
(The one he was wearing when he booted fat Dunn up in
the air.)

I maybe wrong but think the limited edition kit was meant to be the away kit for the following season. Mitre produced a good number before the design was turned down by the club. The yellow and black striped kit was then made as an alternative but wasn’t available to but until a good few months into the season.

Agreed about the 'V' strip, best by far to me, made us look a bit continental or South American. And what brain dead fool thought up the quartered strip that made us look like a Claret version of Rovers? That was truly dreadful and an insult to fans.

I seem to remember us winning away at York in an FA Cup replay in that kit.
Can't remember any other win though?

moaninclaret · Post by **moaninclaret** » Fri Jan 18, 2019 6:05 pm

Thats the one my lads got, going for good money on ebay someone on this site has seen, i think it looks ok unless you stare at it longer than a few seconds lol.

That’s how I remember it as well

I did get the “Wembley” shirt

Sold it a few years ago on eBay for £30 to a guy in Brazil when having a clear out

The limited edition kit had red writing embroidered on the sleeve as well.

I must be the only one who still really likes it! Wish mine didn’t have to go in the bin, although it wouldn’t fit as I was only 13 at the time.

The Spall away kit from when we were promoted to division two in the 80s

White shirt with a Claret v-neck and Sky Blue pinstripes. We wore it once in a 3-0 away defeat to Barnsley before we reverted to the classic all Yellow kit with Claret and Blue trim to the front shoulder area

Bloody Nora bought that kit when it was going for about £5 on offer. Oh and no I ain't a closer gooner I just idolised Ian Wright at the time. So imagine what I was like when we signed him!!!

The shirt the team actually wore during the 93/94 season and also wore at Wembley when we beat Stockport was my all time favourite.

Hsd loads of classic kits
Including both of these. And the away ellgren one. But dont know what ive done with any of them.

Had every home and away one from late 80s to mid 90s and god knows where any of them are.

Usually keep anything like that too.

cricketfieldclarets · Post by **cricketfieldclarets** » Sat Jan 19, 2019 12:46 pm

That elgren one is amazing. PROPER claret.

Yes, I bought one! I was wearing it when I took my 10 year old son to Dean Court and saw us win 2-0. I've looked it up and it was 14th October 1995 and Chris Vinnicombe and Kurt Nogan scored the goals. Easily spotted myself when they showed the goal on South Today, as I was the only bugger jumping up and down clad in yellow and black.

UTC

Edit - mine wasn't the limited edition one - just plain old yellow and black stripes.

It's not from our club unfortunately but this Company do what I like in terms of original design and Cotton material which is better next to the skin and so much more comfortable.

Yes. The Ribeiro one is more purple than Claret.
