Footy Headlines can exclusively reveal that Adidas is set to delve once again into Manchester United's rich kit history to re-release the iconic 1990-1992 away shirt, famously known for its "Snowflake" pattern.
Manchester United 1990 Snowflake Away Remake Kit
The original Manchester United 1990-92 away kit features a striking and intricate blue and white sublimated design, which quickly earned it the "Snowflake" nickname. It was a bold departure at the time and has since become a cult classic.
This iconic "Snowflake" graphic has been a consistent source of inspiration for Adidas' design over the years. Examples include the 2015-16 third kit, the 2017-18 away kit, and even this season's 2024-25 away shirt, all of which draw from this heritage.
Moreover, Adidas is set to continue using this pattern for the yet-to-be-released 2025-26 away kit. This means that for two consecutive seasons, Manchester United's away kits will share the same design inspiration.
The original "Snowflake" away shirt holds a special place in the club's history. It was notably worn during Manchester United's successful 1991-92 League Cup campaign, including in the final where they triumphed 1-0 over Nottingham Forest at Wembley.
This upcoming remake follows the recent re-release in late April of another classic from the same era, the Manchester United 1991 European Cup Winners' Cup final jersey, which was also part of the 1990-1991 season's lineup.
