The kit launch season continues with the arrival of West Ham United’s 2019/20 season with the UMBRO-made home and away kits.
Inspired by the Hammers’ historic 1980 cup-winning team, the kits are a modern twist on the iconic colours worn by Billy Bonds, Trevor Brooking and company on the road to Wembley, climaxing in an unforgettable win over 40 years ago.
The Home shirt features a claret V-neck and sky blue chest featuring a tonal stripe design, sky blue sleeves and claret cuffs and the Umbro diamond motif design on each shoulder. The West Ham United crest is in full colour with an embroidered frame, while the cup winners are honoured further with a 1980 crest graphic on the back of the neck. Finally, the kit is finished with claret shorts featuring a full colour crest and claret socks.
The all-white Away kit brings back memories of that sunny afternoon at Wembley. The V-neck and cuffs use claret and blue stripe detailing and the 1980 crest graphic on the back of the neck. The look is completed by classic white shorts and socks.
West Ham United’s 2019/20 shirts feature under arm body mapping for ventilation, while all shorts and socks are made using lightweight, highly technical performance materials.
