Manchester City’s home kit for the 1971–72 season (and also very similar in 1972–73) was quite classic and simple, reflecting the style of that era. Here’s a quick description:

• Shirt: Sky blue, long sleeves (though short sleeves were also worn in warmer weather).

  • Plain design: no sponsor logos, no elaborate trims.

  • White round neck collar (sometimes described as crew neck) and white cuffs.

  • Classic round Manchester City crest in the center-left chest area (featuring the ship and red rose)

• Shorts: White.

• Socks: Usually sky blue with white turnover tops.

• This kit was made by Umbro, who were the club’s kit manufacturer throughout this period.
