23/24 European Retro Inspirations

Retro-inspired football kits are rife throughout Europe, with some truly beautiful and historical designs to be showcased in the continent's biggest leagues during the 23/24 season. Here are 10 of our favourites.

Lazio (Home) - Lazio’s second season with Mizuno sees their home shirt celebrate the 50th anniversary of their first Serie A title. Featuring a tonal embossed Olympia eagle on the front of the classic Lazio blue shirt, the design pays homage to the 1973/74 shirt.

Motherwell (Away) - The 23/24 Motherwell away shirt is a modern twist on the club's classic look which was used for the home shirts during the 1970s. The claret base features an amber and white sash in what is a reverse of what The Steelmen took to the pitch in 50 years ago.

Bayern Munich (Home) - Changing their home colours for the first time in a few decades, Bayern have gone for a white base for 23/24 rather than the usual red. The inspiration is taken from shirts worn by Die Bayern in 1965 after their promotion to the first division.

Rangers (Third) - Paying homage to their past, the Rangers third shirt for 23/24 takes inspiration from the 1993/94 away shirt, which is still seen as a massive favourite by fans of the Ibrox club. The bright orange and blue stripes are a striking and unmissable combination.

Lorient (Home) - Ligue 1 side Lorient has drawn inspiration from their 1985/86 home shirt for the design of their 23/24 shirt. In what is almost a carbon copy of the retro version, Umbro has created a beautiful reimagining.
