Arsenal 1996/97 Home Jersey

The Arsenal 1996/97 Home Jersey is a triumph of traditional sports design. It features the world-famous red torso with contrasting white sleeves, a silhouette that has defined the club for generations. A standout element of this specific era is the sophisticated tonal watermark—a repeating “Gunners” text and diamond pattern woven directly into the fabric, providing a luxury texture and depth that sets it apart from standard modern prints.

The center of the jersey features the legendary JVC sponsor in a soft felt texture, a hallmark of Arsenal’s most successful decades. The embroidered club crest, featuring the classic eastward-facing cannon, sits proudly on the chest as a nostalgic reminder of the pre-modern badge era. Designed with the signature “roomy” 90s fit, this Arsenal 1996/97 Home Jersey offers maximum comfort and a timeless look for any supporter.
