Arsenal 2002/03 home jersey

Arsenal wore this at home in 2002/03. Nike made it, O2 was on the front: red with white sleeves.

First season of the O2 print. Won the FA Cup.

On the garment, the tell is the white trim on the collar. We read that, the neck label and the tag before we call one original.

How to date one

Neither the print nor the colour dates this one

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 the same home — red with white sleeves — in 2002/03, 2003/04 and 2004/05, all under Nike with the O2 print. For 2002/03 the tell is the white trim on the collar. Beyond that it is the neck label and the tag, which we read before offering you anything.

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.

Have us source it

We do not have this one in hand

Put it on the Want List and it becomes something we go looking for. No fee, no bidding, no obligation — you see photos, measurements and a price before anything is charged.

Club, season and kit is enough. Sponsor or a squad number if you know it.

Early-2000s sizing runs small. Telling us the size stops us offering you a jersey that will not fit.
