The Umbro kit for the 2020/21 season features the club’s claret and blue shirt with a special 125th anniversary two-colour crest, as well as the Irons symbol and ‘125’ on the back of the shirt below the neckline.
Inspiration comes from the club’s most notorious period, which involved the foundation of the world-famous Academy of Football, FA Cup and European Cup Winners’ Cup triumphs and three Hammers leading England to World Cup glory.

The home shorts are white, with vista blue and new claret contrast tipping on the side panels, and the two-colour crest.
The home socks are also white, with contrasting double hoops in claret and vista blue and ‘WHU’ is embroidered on the back.

It was designed and finalised following consultation with supporters.
Club captain, Mark Noble said: “As a boy, my dad would tell me all about Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters, as well as the Academy of Football.

“This kit instantly reminds me of those the legends wore when they won the FA Cup and the European Cup Winners’ Cup.
“While we all want to experience more success in the future, West Ham United is a club that will always remember its past and pay respects to its heritage, and this kit does that perfectly.”
The kit will be available from the official club stores from Wednesday, 15 July.
