Shipped within 24 hours
A true Chelsea classic from the 90s – the 1996/97 away shirt comes from a season where The Blues took an important step towards becoming the international powerhouse Chelsea would later become.
The Chelsea away shirt 1996/97 hails from a fascinating period at Stamford Bridge. The club had assembled an exciting mix of English talents and international stars, and the season became one of the most memorable in Chelsea's pre-millennium history.
Umbro was behind the distinctive 90s design, while the classic Coors sponsor on the front gives the shirt an instantly recognizable Chelsea look from the period. Away models like this are much rarer today than the traditional blue home shirts.
On the pitch, Chelsea fans could experience profiles like Gianfranco Zola, Gianluca Vialli, Ruud Gullit, Roberto Di Matteo, Mark Hughes, and captain Dennis Wise. It was a group of players with a lot of personality, who helped create a new identity around the club.
1996/97 ended with a great triumph when Chelsea won the FA Cup at Wembley. The cup victory marked the beginning of a successful period and gives the shirts from this particular season a special place in the club's history.
This edition is in size Boys Large and is a nostalgic collector's item for fans of Chelsea, Umbro's classic designs, and 90s Premier League football.
Go back to Stamford Bridge's colourful 90s among our classic Premier League shirts and find original models from some of English football's most iconic generations.
