Arsenal 2002/03 away jersey
Arsenal wore this away in 2002/03. Nike made it, O2 was on the front: blue with navy and red.
First season of the O2 print. Won the FA Cup.
On the garment, the tell is the navy blue with a striking geometric pattern on a broad vertical panel. We read that, the neck label and the tag before we call one original.

The print gets you close, the colour finishes it
Nike made every Arsenal jersey of the era, so the sponsor dates it. Sega Dreamcast runs to the end of 2001/02, and O2 takes over from 2002/03.
Arsenal wore Nike with the O2 print in 2002/03, 2003/04 and 2004/05. Only in 2002/03 was the away blue with navy and red, so the colour settles it. For 2002/03 the tell is the navy blue with a striking geometric pattern on a broad vertical panel.
The six checks we run on any jersey — the label code, the sleeve badge, the print, and what none of them prove.
What an early-2000s original costs — real asking prices, and the reproduction price an original has to clear.
