What to wear to an Arsenal match? A vintage shirt guide
One question we often get asked by fans is what is the best thing to wear when going to a live match? Whether to wear a modern classic or vintage shirt?
There’s nothing quite like walking up to the Emirates on matchday whether you're making your way through the tunnel by the Tollington or Gillespie Road where Highbury was .
What you wear matters – not in a try-hard way, but in a you know football way. At Football Shirt Collective, we believe Arsenal matchday style is about history, authenticity, and wearing something that actually means something.
What should I wear to an Arsenal match?
Wenger era shirt
If you want instant respect, start with a late 90s or early 2000s home shirt. Think bold reds, clean whites, and designs that defined modern Arsenal. These shirts represent the shift to beautiful football – Highbury nights, title races, and a club playing with confidence and identity.
Classic Arsenal away shirt
Vintage Arsenal away kits are elite. Yellow, gold, bruised banana – these shirts stand out without trying too hard. Perfect if you want something different from the sea of red while still staying loyal.
90s Arsenal Home Shirt by Nike
Few shirts capture Arsenal identity quite like a 90s home shirt. The deeper red, heavier fabric, oversized fit and bold detailing feel unmistakably of the era. In the mid 90s these shirts were designed by Nike designer Drake Rahmberg, who broke the mould by adding lightning bolts and big features.
Thierry Henry classic shirt
Few players transcend clubs. Thierry Henry is Arsenal. A vintage shirt with Henry 14 on the back isn’t just about a player – it’s about an era when Arsenal were feared across Europe. This is our most popular Arsenal name set we have in the store.

Arsenal modern classic
It's fair to say Adidas have done an amazing job with the latest collection of Arsenal shirts. They've been able to reinvent the shirt whilst paying tribute to the clubs heritage. The home ones have been great but I've also got a lot of time for the 2021 away shirt and the 2022 blue and gold third shirt.
