Best Aston Villa retro shirts 2022: The 6 best classic football shirts from Villa's history
1. Aston Villa 1996 home shirt
For fans of a certain age, this is the Aston Villa shirt – and that sponsor is just perfect for the club, right? The little lion insignia printed all over the top is a classy touch, as are the gold flourishes.
2. Aston Villa 1994 away shirt
One of the greatest-ever Premier League sponsors. Red, green and black stripes just shouldn't work – but this shirt is one of the all-time great away jerseys in English football.
3. Aston Villa 1994 home shirt
Like the green, black and red? You'll love the home. The thick pinstripes were a staple of the 1990s and the Muller sponsor is one of the finest that Villa have ever had.
4. Aston Villa 1990 home shirt
An all-over pattern that recalls a time of Euro 88 and Italia 90, this top is unmistakeable Villa. The collar is very nice indeed and the blue sleeves are wonderful.
5. Aston Villa 1988 home shirt
Hummel dished out a few of these kits – most notably one to Southampton and one to the Denmark national side. But the Aston Villa version is one of the nicest in the archives and something completely different to most of the Midlanders' tops.
6. Aston Villa 1982 home shirt
Villa wore white when they won the European Cup – a crying shame because the 1982 home shirt is one of the most beautiful you will ever come across. The central badge is iconic, too.
