These Are the 20 Most Valuable Football Shirts of All Time
After already trying to determine what preconditions need to be in place for a football kit to become a future classic, we also want to take a look at what inspired us to do this: football kits that managed to become iconic over time. In the meantime, they multiplied their original RRP. Data via Classic Football Shirts.
Disclaimer: Of course, all of these football shirts were produced during a time when replicas were not as common and brands produced less football shirts in general, which obviously makes them scarce in a good condition over time. The prices set by Classic Football Shirts are only estimations and should only be a point of reference.
Additionally, we still believe that there are recent football shirts that will become iconic over time, such as Internazionales 19-20 third shirt or Manchester City's 2020-21 away kit. Given today's production volume of replica football shirts the effect will not be as immense, and it will take time (i.e. decades) to see how exactly it pans out.
