KIDS ENGLAND 1998 HOME

£24.99

The England 1998 home kit is a legendary Umbro classic: the iconic crisp white base with subtle shadow pinstripes, bold red and navy side panels, distinctive navy winged V-neck collar featuring three navy lions on a red insert and a small St George's flag tag, matching navy striped sleeve cuffs with red and navy accents, Umbro logo prominently above the crest, and the proud Three Lions badge with light-blue lions and the France 98 tournament patch.

This shirt became eternal as England (The Three Lions) competed at the 1998 World Cup in France under manager Glenn Hoddle, producing memorable moments including Michael Owen’s stunning solo wonder goal against Argentina in the last-16 thriller and a dramatic penalty shoot-out exit after David Beckham’s red card — moments that defined a talented generation and captured the nation’s imagination.

The Three Lions blended experience, flair, and steel: captain and prolific striker Alan Shearer, teenage sensation Michael Owen (the dazzling goal machine), creative midfielder David Beckham, midfield anchors Paul Ince and Paul Scholes, rock-solid defenders Tony Adams, Gareth Southgate, and Sol Campbell, dynamic winger Steve McManaman, plus key contributors like Teddy Sheringham, Darren Anderton, and goalkeeper David Seaman.

A symbol of England’s enduring passion, the emergence of a golden generation, and one of the most dramatic and fondly remembered World Cup campaigns in national history — pure retro glory for any England collector.

SWAG RATING 91

Swag Rating Explained

At Swag Football, we live and breathe kit culture: the style, heritage, and iconic moments that make every jersey special. That's why we've developed our own Swag Kit Rating system scored out of 99 to celebrate and rank all our kits with the detail and passion they deserve.

Why out of 99? 

This scale gives us room for real precision and excitement. Unlike basic 1-10 ratings, out of 99 lets us highlight true standouts while keeping things aspirational like reaching that elite 99 overall in your favourite football game. It's the ultimate mark of swagger: rare, high-stakes, and always open to discussion (because even the best kits have their own unique story).

How We Score?

Every kit is evaluated across consistent, weighted categories to ensure fairness and transparency:

Design & Aesthetics (up to 30 points) - The overall look: colours, patterns, balance, and the perfect blend of modern edge and timeless appeal.

Details & Craftsmanship (up to 25 points) - Badge quality, embroidery, sponsor integration, fabric texture, and those subtle finishing touches that elevate a jersey.

Historical & Cultural Impact (up to 20 points) - The legacy: unforgettable matches, legendary players, World Cup triumphs, or pure nostalgia that keeps fans connected.

Player/Star Fit (up to 15 points) - How seamlessly the kit complements the icon who wore it does it amplify their presence on the pitch?

Overall Swag Factor (up to 9 points) - The intangible magic: street appeal, visual impact, and that "must-have" coolness that turns heads.

Maximum: 99/99 – Saved for the absolute legends (think Brazil 1970 or other all-time masterpieces).
