The third kit features a sleek and modern design while incorporating elements that nod to both West Ham United’s heritage and Umbro’s iconic style. The shirt is predominantly white with a retro maroon and gold collar.
One of the standout features of the kit is the joint Umbro and West Ham symbols subtly embossed across the fabric. This design is a result of West Ham and Umbro’s joint history with each other. The Umbro logo itself appears in gold and maroon on the chest, adding a touch of elegance to the kit.
