Closer Look: Stunning Kappa Mid 90s Football Shirts
Updated with even more Kappa mid 90s football jerseys. Thanks to BurningHammer, Saulo and William.
Recently, the world's largest retailer of classic football shirts (@classicshirts) shared a picture of 5 Kappa football shirts from the mid 90s to ask their followers if this is potentially the best era a football shirt supplier has ever witnessed. This article was created in collaboration with Football Kit Archive.
Classic Football Shirts chose Italian sportswear brand Kappa and their efforts for 3 spanish (Athletic Club Bilbao, FC Barcelona, Real Betis), 1 Italian (Juventus FC) and 1 Serbian (Red Star Belgrade) side. It has to be said that CFS decided for a reasonable balance between traditional home shirts and outstanding efforts for away or third shirts to fully showcase the portfolio potential of Kappa during the mid 90s. We added a few more examples to underline the argument.
