In this episode, we dive into the bold brilliance of the Netherlands’ 1988 shirt—an iconic blend of style, swagger, and silverware. From its geometric genius to its place in football folklore, this kit changed the game for fans and shirt collectors alike.

Plus, this week's modern classic features a look-back at one of the best games of football ever played (aren't finals supposed to be cagey?) containing one of the best saves, best penalties, and worst pieces of co-commentary that we've ever heard.

And it's live! This is a brand new podcast for football romantics, shirt collectors and anyone who remembers the sponsor just as clearly as the scoreline. Each week we'll be pulling one vintage football shirt off of the hanger (or out of the laundry basket) and delving deep into its fabric, its folklore and its feeling. From bold designs and brilliant goals to collars, crests and cult heroes, this is the place to discuss the football shirts we wore, and the things that happened while we were wearing them.

First up it's the shirt that sparked it all for me back in the mid-90s, aka the golden era of a bloke-core staple - the baggy football shirt. Was it the most iconic collar - and greatest comeback - in Premier League history?
