THE NATION’S GREATEST FOOTBALL SHIRT 2020-21 from wisepowder's blog

The museum’s expert team pored over hundreds of shirts from Premier League, WSL, Women’s Championship and non-league and finally settled on a Top 25.Get more news about soccer training suit for sale ,you can vist futbolucl!

After weeks of scrutinising home, away and third shirts, museum curators have judged Bristol City’s away offering – a purple and lime creation designed by Hummel – as the most striking of the 20/21 campaign.

The Championship side fended off stiff opposition from Manchester City away (2nd), Everton third (3rd) and Arsenal home (4th), who all boast smart shirts this season.

Four non-league clubs make the Top 25: North Ferriby away (6th), 1874 Northwich home (10th), Bury AFC away (19th), Halifax Town third (21st).

Manchester United’s third strip – the ‘zebra’ was described by judges as ‘undeniably striking’ and finishes 13th.

The museum’s Top 25 comes at a time it has extended its Strip! How Football Got Shirty exhibition until Spring 2021. The exhibition has more than 200 shirts on display.We loved last season’s Umbro offerings for the Tigers with the home shirt featuring in the exhibition. Yet again this shirt incorporates some of their identity as vibrant amber leaps out against a charcoal and black canvas with the KCom stadium stanchions acting as an understated pattern. (Jon)

It’s great to see Bury return and their new bespoke kits hint at a bright future. Eco-friendly as it’s made from 16 recycled plastic bottles, the shirt was selected by members of the Shakers community. Maroon and gold are a stylish colour combination and should be a hit both on and off the pitch. (Jon)

I don't think I can remember a United shirt that has divided opinion so much as this. Whether you choose to describe it as zebra stripes or the dazzle-camouflage from a WWI battleship, it is undeniably striking. While it will likely be worn only a handful of times this season, it’s bound to become a cult classic, remembered for years to come. (Tim)

No curatorial bias needed (Jon is a Blackpool fan), this is smart. Even though it’s simple and sleek, the vivid tangerine really pops against the shiny navy backdrop. A very under-utilized colour combination, we featured a late 70s Shrewsbury Town shirt in the exhibition that made me think why it isn’t used more. This is further evidence! (Jon)
