Tottenham Hotspur 2003/04 third jersey

Tottenham Hotspur wore this as a third in 2003/04. Kappa made it, Thomson was on the front: purple with white.

Glenn Hoddle went in September, David Pleat took the rest of the season, and Spurs finished 14th.

On the garment, the tell is the Kappa crew-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

Maker and sponsor changed together: adidas and Holsten to the end of 2001/02, then Kappa and Thomson from 2002/03. One look tells you which half of the era you are holding.

Tottenham Hotspur wore Kappa with the Thomson print in 2002/03, 2003/04 and 2004/05. Only in 2003/04 was the third purple with white, so the colour settles it. For 2003/04 the tell is the Kappa crew-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.
