Best Leeds United retro shirts 2022: The 6 best classic football shirts from Leeds' history
1. Leeds United 1950s 'John Charles' away shirt
Legendary Welsh footballer John Charles was a pioneer. He's still an icon at Elland Road and immortalised with this retro shirt which was worn as a change strip in the 1950s.
2. Leeds United 1975 home shirt
The shirt that Leeds United came oh so close in. This is a remake of the beautifully minimalistic 1970s home top that the Whites got to the European Cup final wearing.

3. Leeds United 1992 home shirt
Leeds were the last side to win the top flight before the Premier League – and they did so in this fantastic jersey with giant Admiral sponsor. The detailing is re-rendered in this excellent remake shirt.
4. Leeds United 1992 away shirt
Subtly patterned yellow with blue trim, this is the pinnacle of Leeds change strips, according to some. That sponsor, too – it just cannot be beaten.
5. Leeds United 2001 home shirt
The adventures in Europe live on through this remake of Nike's early noughties Leeds shirts. Simple, clean and with a brilliant sponsor, too.
6. Leeds United 2002 away shirt
It's hard to put a finger on quite why the Leeds gradient top of 2002/03 is quite so nice – but it's become a modern classic. Arsenal, Inter and Valencia got similar kits on this template.
