West Ham has launched its new home shirt for the 2020/21 season, commemorating the club’s 125th anniversary.
The stripe by the kit manufacturer Umbro is reminiscent of the heyday of the hammer and even has a new retro-inspired club badge.
Simple, clean and crisp, the classic design in red and blue was designed after consultation with the supporters.
The shorts are white, with Vista blue and a new red wine contrast on the side walls.
The socks are also white, with contrasting double tires in red and Vista blue and “WHU” embroidered on the back.
A statement by the club said: “Inspired by the club’s greatest time, when the world-famous triumphs of the Football Academy, the FA Cup and the European Cup winner were founded and three hammers led England to the glory of the FIFA World Cup, the home to 125 -year anniversary kit is a modern classic alluding to our glorious past. “
And it seems that club captain and lifelong hammer Mark Noble is a big fan …
“As a boy, my father told me everything about Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters, and the Academy of Football,” he said.
“This kit immediately reminds me of the legends when they won the FA Cup and the European Cup Winners’ Cup.
“While we all want to be more successful in the future, West Ham United is a club that always remembers its past and respects its heritage, and this kit makes it perfect.”
