SPUR KIT 1999–2000, 2000–01

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR SHIRT

1999–2000, 2000–01

Design: ADIDAS
Sponsor: HOLSTEN

Old favourites Holsten returned in the 99–00
season as shirt sponsors. In fact, to the neutral
observer the brand was so linked with the club
that it seemed like they had never been away!
Adidas became the new kit supplier in a threeyear
deal and produced this fine home kit,
which was premiered to great excitement in
the last home game of 98–99 against Chelsea.
The more traditional club badge also returned
this season in preference to the shield design.

SPUR KIT 1998–99

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR SHIRT

1998–99

Design: PONY
Sponsor: HEWLETT PACKARD

The last kit to be produced by Pony for Spurs
(now managed by George Graham who took
over in October 1998) was this stylish allpurple
outfit. Minimal in design with a simple
wrap-over V-neck and restrained white piping,
it saw a return to a more 80s style of kit – a
million miles away from the busy design of the
first Pony home kit! The four-year deal with
Pony was said to be worth ฃ10 million, but
although the club sported some nice Pony
designs, the kits of this era are not the most
fondly remembered by fans.

With Christian Gross installed as manager to
replace Gerry Francis, the club sported one of
the nicest kits produced by Pony during their
relegation fight. This classy navy and ecru
design maintained the same collar and cuff
design as the home and added underarm
panels trimmed with amber piping, which
worked well with the navy and ecru shades.
Although the shirt and shorts featured a more
heraldic Spurs badge, the socks, as with the
home kit, included the earlier, more traditional
variant of the team’s badge.

The last home shirt to be
made by Pony was this nice
blend of retro styling and
modern materials. The shirt
had a simple wrap-over
V-neck and navy piping, combined with a
vertically ribbed fabric. Hewlett Packard
remained sponsor, but the club crest was in a
new heraldic shield design – quite a change
from the minimal style of the previous badge.
Worn in: The 98–99 Worthington Cup final 1–0
win over Leicester at Wembley – the club’s first
major trophy in seven years.

SPUR KIT 1982–83(2)

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR

A 1982–83

Design: LE COQ SPORTIF
Sponsor: NONE

The club switched to light blue, a colour used
early in the club’s life within their 1885 kit, for
their next away kit. It followed the silky and
shiny design of the home, complete with
shadow stripes and non-contrasting V-neck
and cuffs. As with the home shirt, a special
commemorative badge marked the club’s
centenary. This was a great season for the
club, who eventually finished fourth in the
League.
Worn in: Good 1–0 wins over Sunderland and
West Bromwich Albion – rare victories in the
shirt this season.
Worn by: Mickey Hazard, Gary Mabbutt,
Chris Hughton, Alan Brazil.

This classic outfit – regarded
by many Spurs fans as one of
the best the club have worn
– was simple and elegant
with a shadow stripe design
on the shirt, continued on the shorts. The
82–83 season was the club’s centenary and
this special kit was worn for just that one
season to mark the occasion, although it was
revived in 83–84 for the club’s UEFA Cup
campaign.

The first away kit of the 80s was just as good
as the home. A little snug-fitting, it has to be
said, it was nonetheless a shirt of classic
simplicity with just a small navy panel on each
shoulder. As with the home shirt, it featured a
central badge and the Le Coq Sportif logo on
each sleeve – the height of fashion! Spurs
reached the FA Cup final again in 81–82 after
beating both Arsenal and Chelsea en route.

Spurs dived into the 80s
under manager Keith
Burkinshaw with the very
latest in kit design. Gone
were the scratchy cotton,
wing-collared jerseys – in came new sleek,
shiny, polyester shirts. Le Coq Sportif led the
way in kit design in this period and this Spurs
strip is a typical example.
