The UK-based company, founded by designer and football fanatic James Garley,

RetroFootballTShirts.co.uk are helping to “Bring back the good old days” by stocking over 3,000 t-shirts of former terrace favourites like George Best, Steve Archibald, Kevin Keegan, Ron “Chopper” Harris and Charlie George to name but a few.

The UK-based company, founded by designer and football fanatic James Garley, currently stocks t-shirts for Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester United, Spurs and a whole host of other teams. They plan to eventually stock thousands of t-shirts for every British side!

They use the very best brands for their t-shirts, with American Apparel, Fruit Of The Loom and Hanes all featuring amongst their impressive suppliers.

"I got the idea to set this site up as my sister’s boyfriend is a big Spurs fan and he said ‘I’d love a Steve Archibald t-shirt, that would be so great, a retro type t-shirt. You’d never find one though.’ So I made him one!" said James.

"He loved it so I thought…’Well if he loves this so much, surely other people would love retro t-shirts of their favourite players and for their favourite teams?’"

A particularly impressive feature of the site is the option to produce your own ‘Dream Team’ t-shirt. RetroFootballTShirts.co.uk allow you to simply e-mail your favourite XI players and they’ll produce your dream team on the t-shirt for you!

An enthusiastic James continued, "The ‘Dream Team’ t-shirts are something extra to the hundreds of t-shirts we currently stock. Every football fan has their own opinion and has a side that they think would be world-beaters. We’re giving them the chance to pick that side and then we’ll put the team on a t-shirt for them and let them show the world!

"There is no limit to the side that they can pick – it could be an England XI or a Macclesfield Town XI – we can cater for any team and any players!

"We don’t take responsibility if others disagree with their selections though!" joked James.

RetroFootballTShirts.co.uk also allow their customers to purchase personalised t-shirts. The one-off designs could be of a player not featured on the site that you’d love to wear or perhaps of you lifting the FA Cup for your favourite team!

James said, "The unique and one-off t-shirts are something else that I was adamant on offering. Every fan pictures themselves lifting the FA Cup for their side – or at least I know I did – so we’re giving them that opportunity. All they have to do is to send us a photograph and we’ll depict them lifting the Cup!

"Of course, this is only one possibility. The customer literally can ask us for anything and we’ll make it within 24 – 48 hours. We’ll never sell that t-shirt again, so they get a custom-made t-shirt that nobody else in the world will ever own!"

These products are perfect for wearing to matches, down the pub and as gifts or friends and family. Personalised gifts and gift certificates are also available. Wholesale inquiries are welcome.
