The history of football shirts dates back to the late 19th century when players typically wore heavy cotton jerseys in their club’s colors, often featuring collars and laces. Early kits were simple and practical, designed for durability rather than performance or branding. As the game professionalized in the mid-20th century, synthetic fabrics replaced wool and cotton, allowing for lighter, more breathable shirts. The 1970s and 1980s saw the rise of shirt sponsorships and manufacturer logos, transforming kits into commercial assets. Technological innovations in the 1990s and 2000s brought moisture-wicking materials and tailored fits, while modern football shirts now blend fashion, function, and fandom—often re-released as retro editions to honor their evolving legacy.
