PREMIER LEAGUE

Arsenal is built on the Bergkamp and Henry years, home and away shirts from a side that went unbeaten in 2003-04, plus a Fabregas 2008-09 away jersey and a Lehmann goalkeeper shirt from the same Invincibles squad. Manchester United runs longer, from Cantona's Umbro shirts in the mid-nineties through Beckham's number 7 and Keane's number 16 to Ronaldo and Rooney before either left Old Trafford, one of the deepest single-club runs the shop holds, with a full kit sitting alongside the shirts for anyone chasing the complete set.

Chelsea and West Ham United fill in the rest of the capital, from a Zola number 25 home shirt to a Torres third kit from 2011-12, the season after his move from Liverpool, and a plain Pony-branded West Ham home shirt from the mid-nineties that says more about the era than any player name could. Pony's spell as a Premier League kit supplier didn't last long, which is part of why a shirt like this rarely turns up.

Manchester City, Liverpool and Newcastle United cover the rest of the north, including a Gerrard 2008-10 home shirt from Liverpool's Adidas years and a Player Issue Cisse shirt from Newcastle's 2015-16 relegation season, the kind of detail that separates a retail jersey from one closer to what a squad actually wore on the pitch. City's stock is smaller than the other two clubs on this page, a fair reflection of how recently the club's collecting demand caught up with its results.

Tottenham Hotspur sits alongside clubs with thinner runs but genuine history behind them, a reminder that this page isn't only built around the sides that won things. Manufacturers changed across these shirts as often as sponsors did: Nike, Umbro, Adidas and Reebok all appear within a few seasons of each other, sometimes on the same club within a single decade, which is one of the easier ways to date an unlabelled shirt at a glance.

Every shirt here carries its own condition rating and its own photography, and since almost all of it is one of one, a search by size will only turn up what's physically on the shelf right now. Measurements are given as pit to pit and top to bottom, flat, because old English sizing rarely lines up with a modern label, and a boxy nineties Umbro cut sits noticeably differently on the body than a slimmer 2000s Nike template in the same letter size. Checking those numbers against a shirt already in your wardrobe is a better guide than trusting the tag, especially on anything from before the mid-2000s. Search terms like "1996" or "2004-05" tend to turn up specific seasons faster than a club name alone, since the shop's stock changes week to week and a season search narrows the grid to exactly what's available right now.
