Manchester United 2001/02 home jersey

Manchester United wore this at home in 2001/02. Umbro made it, Vodafone was on the front: red with a black V-neck collar and black cuffs.

The centenary season, and the last full season under Umbro. The away and third shirts were a reversible pair. Finished third.

On the garment, the tell is the Umbro black V-neck collar. We read that, the neck label and the tag before we call one original.

How to date one

The print gets you close, the colour finishes it

Two switches inside three seasons. Sharp ended in 2000, so any Vodafone shirt is 2000/01 or later. Umbro made the shirt up to 2001/02, Nike from 2002/03.

Manchester United wore Umbro with the Vodafone print in 2000/01 and 2001/02. Only in 2001/02 was the home red with a black V-neck collar and black cuffs, so the colour settles it. For 2001/02 the tell is the Umbro black V-neck collar.

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.

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.
