SS24 has made one thing abundantly clear: the demand for retro football shirts is through the retractable stadium roof.

Luckily for us, noble streetwear tycoons with an eye for reimagination have consistently stepped up to the mark and plugged this gap which has been left wide open by modern teams who, these days, tend to opt for more technical jerseys which favour performance as opposed to originality.

PUMA Players Boulevard

PUMA’s Players Boulevard collection pinches themes from vintage football stylings and reengineers them through a modern lens with renewable materials. There are strong aromas of AS Roma colour codes and slight hints of a lesser-known Lazio jersey from the 79-80 season.

Reebok Farrow Football T-Shirt – size? exclusive

The Reebok Farrow Football T-Shirt – size? exclusive delivers a vintage aesthetic reminiscent of legendary football kits. Reigniting the brand’s football glory, this jersey borrows patterns from the ’90s while a v-neck collar and Reebok branding add the finishing touches.

Nike Dri-FIT

Nike’s Culture of Football Jersey is a Dri-FIT composition which loosely reminds us of a certain 1996 Scotland national team jersey – minus the tartan – alongside the more obvious Inter Milan influences. It employs raglan sleeves, ribbed details and a definitive throwback feel.

adidas Originals

A verdant aesthetic that’s reminiscent of Bundesliga team Hannover 96’s jersey in the 86-87 season, adidas Originals’ Adicolor Pique Football Top is a V-neck open collar silhouette with Trefoil chest embroidery and a plush-to-the-touch feel.

NST Radio

Perhaps not premillennial, but the adidas Originals x NST Radio collection definitely evokes some strong 2006 World Cup vibes. Think of those kits that were prolifically worn by Zidane, Klose, Torres… beauties.
