1980's Umbro City Shirts

I must get in the loft, I've got a bag full of old shirts. I've kept most from around 81 onwards. Don't really want to sell them but I could do with storing them properly instead of being stuffed into bin bags.

Would be rude not to as they should be seen and shared ;-)

There's no match worn, just replica ones. I know I sold the white saab one with pinstripes and the black red checkered one on Ebay 15-20 yrs ago, think they were worth bout 100 each at the time. Obv worth more now but I needed the money.
Wish I still had my first one, the shiny home one late 70's I think, dunno what happened to it.

1986 Full Members Cup Final Graham Baker match worn shirt….One of the most difficult City shirts of the 1980’s to obtain, Baker would replace Nicky Reid in the 58th minute of the inaugural Full Members Cup final against Chelsea, played at Wembley just 24 hours after City had drawn the Manchester Derby at Old Trafford.

The shirt is the 1984-86 away shirt design which had the coat of arms badge heat pressed on for use in the final only.

Replica shirts were available to buy from the souvenir shop with the same badge applied although the player’s shirt have the white inner fleece lining.

It was proper that shirt. Felt thicker, the pattern on it was deeper and it was dead smart

Yes they were certainly made to last a lot longer back then

Beautiful shirt! Never realised they were quite so rare. Mine’s in pretty much mint condition- I wore it once I think. XL and now wondering whether to keep it or sell it.

Great shirt mate and very much sought after even as replica which now sell for big money.

Shirts give us memories, history and moments that we can all relate to when you see them so sentimental value is much higher. If this shirt has any of that for you then simply keep it in the family and past those memories on with it.

If it doesn't then simply cash in ;-)
