From the pink jersey donned by Sicilian hardmen to the strip that hid blood on George Best’s ankles, The Times has made a selection of the Top 50 Football Kits in history.

As usual, this ranking (just like any other type of ranking involving football) has to be taken with a grain of salt: some fans will feel outraged that their favorite jersey has been forgotten, others may not agree on the selection, etc. but it’s always interesting to see what other people think.

Just like the article’s authors state, if we have forgotten anyone’s favourite, let us know.

Personally, although I’m a die-hard Juventus fan, I’ve always had a soft spot for the Parma jersey: bright yellow & blue colors and a nice design with horizontal lines. For national teams (other than the Azzurri shirt obviously) I love the Brazil jersey… you can’t beat that bright yellow.

Here’s an excerpt from the Times article, which you can find here (the article also contains about 40 pictures of the shirts being worn by players). By the way, it took me quite some time to dig up all the kit images, so I do hope you appreciate the effort here…
