Football Shirts: From Terrace Fashion to Global Streetwear

From polyester tops on the terraces to Paris Fashion Week collaborations, football shirts have always been more than just kits. In this episode, we trace the history and culture of the shirt — from terrace style in the 70s and 80s, through the replica boom of the 90s, to today’s global streetwear phenomenon.

Along the way we share:

• Match Talk: Premier League & EFL weekend results
• Transfer Deadline Day drama
• The Halftime Pint: our worst and weirdest kit stories
• The Away End: listeners on the shirts that shaped their football memories

Football shirts are memory, identity, and belonging — time machines stitched in polyester.
