100% Authentic Genuine Vintage Original — New With Tags (NWT) Deadstock Condition
Up for sale is an absolute holy grail for vintage football shirt collectors: an original 1995–1996 England National Team Goalkeeper Jersey. This features the legendary, vibrant "Skittles" or "Fruit Salad" abstract geometric design famously worn by David Seaman during England's historic Euro 96 tournament run.
This is NOT a modern remake, retro reissue, or reproduction—it is a true archival piece manufactured in 1995 by Umbro in the United Kingdom, preserved with its original retail tags intact.
Key Features:
• Authentic Details: Features the official embroidered Three Lions England chest crest, stitched Umbro lettering, and official Euro 96 sponsor product graphics.
• Premium Fabric: Woven with the iconic, subtle "FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION" text and diamond jacquard pattern running through the red polyester fabric.
• Original Retail Tags: Cardboard string tags match the neck tags perfectly, highlighting Style 1812 (ENGLAND GK REP) with a period-accurate mid-90s barcode.
Measurements (Laid Flat):
• Pit-to-Pit: 24.5 inches (Fits with a classic, loose 1990s silhouette)
• Length (Top of collar to bottom hem): 31 inches
Detailed Condition Report (Please Read Before Purchasing):
• Overall Aspect: The colors are incredibly vibrant, bright, and completely unfaded. The jersey has never been washed or worn.
• Back Panel: Features a few minor, light fabric snags/pulls on the lower red back panel resulting from decades of shelf storage (clearly highlighted in close-up listing photos).
• Elbow Padding: Due to natural aging and a process called hydrolysis over the last 30 years, the thin layer of internal foam padding inside the elbow compartments has completely dissolved and crumbled into dust. This is a universal trait for deadstock 90s goalie kits. The jersey looks immaculate on display, but if you intend to wear it, the sleeves will require a thorough shake-out or a careful interior rinse to clear out the residual internal foam dust.
This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of English football history in deadstock condition. Perfect for serious collection framing, archiving, or display.
