Umbro Celebrates 95-Years Anniversary With Special Exhibition Featuring 95 Iconic Kits

Iconic brand Umbro celebrates its 95th anniversary this year. For that occasion, Umbro has teamed up with quarterly football lifestyle magazine MUNDIAL and retailer Classic Football Shirts for a special exhibition in Manchester.

Umbro is an English sportswear and football equipment supplier based in Cheadle, next to Manchester. In 2007, Umbro bought by Nike in a deal worth GB£285 million. Since 2012, the company has been a subsidiary of American company Iconix Brand Group.

Umbro '95' Exhibiton

Called ‘95, the new Umbro exhibition celebrates the influence of Umbro in football by displaying 95 of the brand's most iconic shirts while telling the story of the Double Diamond brand.

The exhibition features a lot of rare archive jerseys and jackets, alongside photos and the stories behind some favorite Umbro shirts, old brochures and adverts.

The Umbro ‘95’ exhibition is free to enter and will run from Monday 8th of April to Sunday 14th April at 23a Princess Street, Manchester, M2 4EN.

For that occasion, Umbro and local illustrator Tom Nicklin also created a huge mural to celebrate Manchester's love of football.

Arsenal Switches to Home Kit for Title Celebrations

After securing the Premier League title while playing in their Trefoil-adorned third kit, the Arsenal squad made a deliberate wardrobe change into their traditional 25-26 red and white home kit to actually lift the trophy.

This evokes memories of FC Barcelona, who famously wore orange but switched to their home shirt for the title lifting. In contrast to Arsenal, Barcelona just switched the shirt and kept the orange shorts and socks.

Do you like teams switching into their primary colors after the final whistle to ensure historic celebrations are captured in their iconic home kits?

Atalanta, Marseille & Wolfsburg Change Logos for 26-27 Season

Vietnamese kit freaks Chuyện Áo Đấu have created a nice infographic of three European teams' logo changes for the 26-27 season. All of them have one thing in common - they are circular.

The underlying reasoning for this widespread circular design trend across modern football is primarily driven by digital functionality and commercial scalability. Circular, stripped-down logos provide a sense of visual balance and are significantly easier to apply across various media, ranging from tiny social media avatars to global lifestyle merchandise.

However, this rush toward extreme minimalism is increasingly alienating traditional football supporters and risking a severe homogenization of the sport's visual landscape.

For Wolfsburg, the change was praised by fans, as the Zinnen crest has been the fans' favorite design ever since. For Atalanta, it was also rooted in history, while OM was the biggest update.
