Product Stats
- Manchester United's 1996/98 third shirt was worn during a period of continued domestic success for the club under manager Alex Ferguson, including the 1996/97 Premier League title. Umbro supplied the kit during this stretch, with Sharp continuing as long-standing shirt sponsor, its logo displayed prominently across the chest.
- The design introduces a royal blue base with bold black sleeve panels and angular white-and-black side striping, a striking departure from the club's traditional red home identity and reflective of the more graphic-driven alternate kit designs Umbro produced across several clubs in the mid-1990s. Construction reflects the lightweight polyester fabrics typical of the period.
- This shirt holds interest among Manchester United collectors and enthusiasts of 1990s Umbro alternate kit designs more broadly, given its distinctive blue colorway and angular panel detailing. As with most shirts from this period, value depends on condition, tagging, and size, and collectors should evaluate individual examples rather than assume uniform demand.

Description
This Manchester United third shirt is from the 1996/98 season and was produced by Umbro in royal blue, featuring bold black sleeve panels trimmed in white with angular striping running down the sides of the torso. The black V-neck collar carries white trim, with the Umbro wordmark and club crest centered on the chest above the Sharp sponsor logo, printed in white with a black outline. The shirt reflects Umbro's more graphic, panel-driven template for the club's alternate kits of the mid-1990s, constructed from a lightweight polyester weave.
