Check out Football Kit Archive Now
Football Kit Archive is a website dedicated to the history and evolution of football kits. The aim of Football Kit Archive is to showcase how the designs and details of soccer jerseys have changed over the past, with a clear focus on the recent history and high-quality images that show off the details of the kits - We think that the football kit design game really really started in the 1980s when brands put more focus on the designs.
We think that a website about classic jerseys like Football Kit Archive does not have to look like a vintage website - it therefore has a modern look and feel that can be used instinctively and also works seamlessly on all devices, ranging from the big screen to mobile devices.
Our goal for Football Kit Archive is be the definitive website for everyone interested in the evolution of football kit designs worldwide since the 1980s, when the design game really started. Of course, we also want to add more teams, older kits and leagues in the future. We have some other ideas in our mind for the website as well.

Nigeria Women Update Crest With 10 Stars
At the 2026 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), defending champions Nigeria featured a special detail on their shirts: 10 stars added above their crest. The "Super Falcons" had never worn stars on their kits in previous WAFCONs.
The 10 stars represent Nigeria's 10 continental titles, celebrating their history as the most dominant team in African women's football. Big thanks to our Vietnamese partner @jerseystory_vn for the collage image.
