Arsenal 88/90 Home

The adidas Arsenal F.C. 1988–90 home shirt is one of the most legendary kits in the club’s history, forever associated with one of English football’s most dramatic title triumphs.

Worn across the 1988–89 and 1989–90 seasons, the shirt featured Arsenal’s traditional red body with white sleeves, complemented by adidas’ signature three stripes, a smart V-neck collar, and the iconic JVC sponsor across the chest. Its clean, timeless design has become one of the most recognisable Arsenal shirts ever produced.

Managed by George Graham, the squad featured club legends including Tony Adams, Alan Smith, David Rocastle, Michael Thomas, Nigel Winterburn, Lee Dixon, and David Seaman.

The shirt is forever remembered for the unforgettable 1988–89 First Division title victory, when Michael Thomas scored in the final seconds at Liverpool F.C. to secure the championship in one of the most dramatic finishes in football history. Arsenal followed it up by successfully defending their crown, winning the 1989–90 First Division title.

Today, the 1988–90 home shirt is regarded as one of Arsenal’s greatest ever kits. Its classic adidas design, iconic JVC sponsorship, and connection to two league titles make it an essential piece for retro football shirt collectors.

More than just a shirt, it represents glory, history, and one of the greatest title-winning moments football has ever witnessed.
