Condition - Excellent
Size - Medium / Large adult (42”)
would fit a tight large but I like the fit on a medium, it measures approximately:
Pit to pit 19” (48cms)
Shoulder to hem 27.6” (70cms)
Made by - Skill Leisurewear
Sponsor - Heritage Hampers
Players - Gary Pallister,
Notes - Many football kits are rendered iconic by way of their Umbro, adidas or, more recently, Nike stylings. The Middlesbrough FC design worn in the 1988-89 and 1989-90 seasons is not one such example. The “Skill” design - that’s what the “i” stood for, obviously (!) - featured chest striping probably influenced by a similar approach by The Brand With The 3 Stripes, but it remained distinctive in its time, sitting atop the Heritage Hampers sponsorship logo.
