Our new 2024/25 apparel takes its inspiration from a kit worn by the Busby Babes in the early 1950s that was made from reflective materials.
The reason for those reflective materials? To aid visibility on the pitch, in the early years of evening games being played under floodlights.
Our new kit aims to create something similarly striking, via a myriad of different red shades that create both a glow effect and a connecting line that stands out as the players are in motion.
But the long road to this latest Manchester United kit began way back in 1951, on a cold, dark night at the Cliff, our former training HQ in Broughton, Salford.
