The closest we've gotten to that was the FIFA centennial match in 2004 between Brazil and France. Both teams played the first half with kits based on their first-ever international kits.
I seem to recall that in 1985, Aberdeen (playing as Bon Accord) and Arbroath re-created the legendary 36-0 match in old style kits and some players even wore walrus moustaches.
As a Bolton fan I would love to claim we were in a World Cup final. Pretty sure you meant 53’ FA Cup final. Who cares, Joe, you’re voice is like velvet.
Quite a fall from grace for Bolton - going from having their own World Cup place and tournament in '53 to whatever they're up to now. How the mighty do languish now. And yes, I am a Man United fan
I started to question if there was a whole part of football history I wasn't aware of, when the Wanderers were taking on the likes of West Germany and Brazil!
6:12 Castolo. That Brazilian chap PES United legend. Alongside Spanish Ordaz and the Portuguese Minanda..man the memories "watching" them play together
Fun fact: The first names on the back of kits came, just as numbers on the back (edit: was corrected, the numbers are from 🇦🇺 pre-WW1), from the US also, but from the North American Soccer League in the 1970s, which folded in the 80s. That league had a history of buying tons of players from abroad, so having the names of the players on the shirt would help identify the players, especially international ones.
But numbers on the backs of the kits first appeared in Australia, not the USA... 3:11 Australia pre first world war, then USA in the 1920's...just so you know, the first world war was in fact before the 1920's 😅
From 1927-1929 in the Scottish Football League the management committee introduced a bizarre rule stating that clubs should wear white shorts when at home, black when playing away. It was so unpopular with clubs and fans and even influential clubs flouted very openly the ruling so much the ruling was rescinded in the SFL's AGM in 1929.
My Favourite World Cup Kits: 1. West Germany 1990 2. Netherlands 1974 3. Argentina 1978 4. Brazil 1970 5. Croatia 1998 6. Denmark 1986 7. France 1998 8. Mexico 1998 9. France 1982 10. Argentina 2010

In September 1979 Scotland became the first international team to wear names on the player's shirts when they played Peru in a friendly at Hampden Park. The idea was the brainchild of the SFA's secretary at the time Ernie Walker after he spent the previous summer in the USA and attended some NASL matches. He thought the names on shirts would be a good idea. However it didn't last on Scotland shirts too long and the idea was scrapped in 1981. However Ernie Walker did say that names on shirts will be commonplace in 20 years. That foresight was off by just over 10 years as teams in Euro 92 wore names on their shirts and numbers on front as well, also the Premier League teams started to wear names from the 92/93 season
Fun fact: Although shrit numbers were made a requirement Celtic did not put them on the back of the hoops until the early 90s before that they only had them on the shorts
It's a shame polka dots never caught on, but that also makes Heerenveen's kit so lovable imo. They've got little red hearts all over the shirt and crest that make them so iconic and recognizable. It's nice to see kits like those stick around in top flight football, and in the Eredivisie no less.
Tailor: Good day sir, what can I help you today? Me: I would like a football shirt with a distinctive colour. Can you do that? Tailor: Of course sir. What colour would you like? Me: I would like a white shirt with soggy watermelon coloured sash on and a black shirt with a toxic daffodil coloured on the collar. Tailor: Excuse me sir? Me: You can't do that? Tailor: Yes. Currently we only have a bananananana and scorpion yellow sir. Me: Then bananananana it is!
I'm surprised you didn't mention the banned Cameroon sleeveless shirt from 2002! My favourite shirt has to be CR Vasco da Gama's for the mixture of sash, badge/crest and pure simplicity.
They didn't mention the black shirt with the yellow sash they had for their first season either when they went by the now less than PC name 'Black Arabs'. The pirate logo on the current club badge still wears it.
Favorite kits 1. Adidas Teamgeist Shirts from 2006 2. Nike Total 90 Shirts from 2004 Those for me are the most iconic designs of the modern era, I’m a collector as well and nothing has come close to those years
@@nadadur actually we have plenty of green kits in Brazil. Last year we had 4 or 5 in first division, including Palmeiras, which recently played Chelsea in Club WC. Unless you're almost blind, it doesn't overlap, since most use a darker shade of green and/or white/yellow shorts
I wish an association would mandate that clubs retain their kits for more than a season, therefore making them a worthwhile purchase for fans as well as making sure the design teams actually use some deliberation. Should there be any changes in sponsorships, clubs must retain the same kit design but with the new sponsors plastered on until they're allowed to release new designs. If clubs think it might make old kits purchased by fans obsolete, just release plain versions of the kits, which usually look more palatable because of the lack of corporate shills on them. The only exception to this rule is when clubs change their kit suppliers on unprecedented circumstances.
MLS is already applying it. The mandate all of their teams to switch kits every 2 seasons. So, a club can change their home kit on year 1, and their away kit on year 2.
Football kits always amuse me. Got a nice collection of kits myself but nothing focuses. Just tend to get the kits that I like. Tends to be championship teams more often than not.
Awesome vid! I hope you can make a follow up video about the shorts part of kits. It seems odd to me that basketball and football kits are not shifting to tight fitting or more protective shorts or pants a la American football.
Originally, knee lengthed shorts, described as 'knickers' (knickerbockers) were worn and available in only three colours, white, navy and black. Clubs wearing dark shirts opted for white, teams with light shirts opted for navy or black and teams wearing stripes wore either. It wasn't until the sixties when Revie used all white for Leeds (aping Real Madrid) and Shankly followed suit at Liverpool with all red. Chelsea chose blue shorts and slowly other clubs followed suit.
I guess prior to assembling a squad of the best players a national association can gather from several clubs, the club deemed the best over the stretch leading to said world cups became the country's representative.
You didn't include the origin of players surnames in the back of shirts which originated in baseball in the USA. I believe the Chicago White Sox were the first professional team to incorporate players names on their shirts.
I like how they introduce Adama Traore to show that the football kits nowadays is strong and not easily torn.
it truly is the little details that make Tifo great

They should absolutely do a throwback match where players have to play in suits and top hats, or dressed like miners from 1901.
Lol. Great idea. Give the proceeds to charity.
The closest we've gotten to that was the FIFA centennial match in 2004 between Brazil and France. Both teams played the first half with kits based on their first-ever international kits.

Mexico ‘98 for me.
Spain 2012 for me
I tip my hat to whoever came up with some of the colour names at 2:40. Definitely worth a pause to have a look

Criminal to not have Cameroon in this list.

Finally a proper video about football kits, been a collector for 7 years 🙌
What did you obtain in your collection?
how many do you have? what's your favourite?😅

Yeah the colour names were fantastic. Flatulent Pistachio and Elizabeth Moss XD
Don Revie of Leeds United was the person who come up with the idea of selling shirts.

Ah, that sleeveless one, right?
@@amiryusuf8815 yes, the sleeveless one.👌🏾
@@tebogoletsoko1342 Why the ban though, since it didn't exactly violate the attire regulation of FIFA, or am I missing something here?

why did kits changed from bodyfit in the 70s and 80s to oversized and baggy in early 1990s up to early/mid 2000s?

So that it does not overlap with pitch
In any league you won’t see many, it’s to avoid confusion or overlap with the green of the pitch
