New Home Kit Revealed

West Ham revealed the 2020/21 Commemorative 125th Anniversary home kit and extended their partnership with Umbro as Official Technical Partner. The new kit will come with white shorts and white socks.

The kit’s design reminds us of the Club’s greatest period, which saw the foundation of the world-famous Academy of Football, FA Cup win (1964) and European Cup Winners’ Cup triumph (1965) and also three Hammers lead England to FIFA World Cup glory in 1966 when “West Ham beat West Germany”.

I am very happy with the return of white shorts and socks. I could never warm to the all-claret lower body of our players this season.

I hope the players will be able to sport the new kit in the first tier of English football next season, and that we will be able to watch them from the stands, but who knows?

Come on you Irons!
