Adidas has recently collaborated with Roma to remake and re-release a classic kit, sparking excitement among Manchester United fans. The Italian club will be receiving a new version of their burgundy home kit with orange accents, originally worn between 1992 and 1994. This retro kit will feature Adidas’ trefoil logo and the iconic Luppeto badge from the ’80s and ’90s, along with their old sponsor, Barilla, making a comeback after 30 years.
Footy Headlines leaked the remake of the kit, revealing that it will cost £90 and be made with a thicker material to stay true to the original design. As one of Adidas’ ‘elite teams,’ United could potentially have one of their classic kits remade in the future. The iconic 1990-92 away shirt, sponsored by Sharp, is a strong candidate after inspiring the design of the 2021/22 season’s away shirt.
In terms of home kits, a relaunch of the 1992/94 design with the classic lace-up collar could be a leading contender for a remake. United may consider following Roma’s footsteps and releasing a retro kit of their own to kick off the new decade of their partnership with Adidas. It remains to be seen whether United will go down this path, but it is definitely a possibility for the future. Fans are eagerly anticipating the potential release of a classic United kit, similar to the excitement surrounding Roma’s upcoming retro kit revival.
