Far from being a club that relies on reminding others of its’ past glories, West Ham have released a commemorative kit to mark their departure from the Boleyn Ground; which has been their home since 1904.
This isn’t just any kit, this is “The Boleyn Kit 2015/16 – The club’s home kit for the final, unmissable season at the Boleyn Ground”. This isn’t just any mass-produced, 100% polyester replica kit; this is a kit “Made using lightweight, highly technical performance materials”. This isn’t just any farewell, emotional goodbye, fitting tribute and commemorative nod towards a momentous season and departure from a historical stadium; this is a kit featuring a “Boleyn Ground detail” on the back of the shirt.
