In this episode of Kiss the Badge, we start with a shirt that instantly became a modern football icon: the Manchester United 2021–22 away shirt, worn by Cristiano Ronaldo during his unforgettable return to Old Trafford. Part of our Future Classics series, we break down why this Adidas design—with its nostalgic 90s-inspired “snowflake” pattern—captured the hearts of United fans around the world. We revisit the electric atmosphere of Ronaldo’s second debut against Newcastle, his emotional celebrations, and the way this kit taps into Manchester United’s rich heritage while feeling fresh and collectible for shirt enthusiasts. Expect talk of retro influences, Premier League nostalgia, and why this shirt is destined to be a must-have for football shirt collectors.

Then, for our From the Vault segment, we rewind to the early 90s and the legendary Barcelona home shirt from 1992 to 1995, worn by Johan Cruyff’s iconic Dream Team. This Kappa masterpiece is steeped in history: it’s the shirt that lifted the club’s first European Cup, defined an era of Total Football, and was donned by greats like Pep Guardiola, Hristo Stoichkov, and Romário. We explore its bold vertical stripes, classic Kappa detailing, and why it remains one of the most celebrated Barça shirts of all time.

From Ronaldo’s Premier League comeback to Cruyff’s revolutionary football philosophy, this episode celebrates two jerseys that symbolize passion, heritage, and footballing artistry. Whether you’re a kit collector, Manchester United supporter, Barcelona fan, or just love classic football shirts, this is one you won’t want to miss.
