Long-sleeved: 2003/04 Manchester United away kit

During the 2003/04 season, this long-sleeved away kit accompanied Manchester United through a period of generational transition and title pursuit, bearing witness to the dawn of a legend. It frequently featured in away league matches against Southampton and Fulham—games where color clashes were common—helping the team secure crucial points. It also took the field in the pivotal FA Cup final, ultimately becoming the sole emblem of the season's sole honor. The long sleeves were tailored for the chilly British autumn and winter pitches, capturing Cristiano Ronaldo's youthful brilliance at 18 during his Manchester United debut—winning a penalty and assisting Ruud van Nistelrooy's winner against Everton. It documented Van Nistelrooy's prolific 20-goal season and Roy Keane's iron-willed defensive midfield, while also preserving the heartbreak of Van Nistelrooy's missed penalty in the 0-0 home draw against Arsenal.
This jersey features a pure white base accented by red and black stripes outlining its classic silhouette.
