This cool vintage football jersey was made for the Premier League soccer team, Arsenal. This shirt is a reproduction of the jersey worn by the team's star goalkeeper, David Seaman in the mid 90s, and the back even has Seaman's jersey number. The back also features the Irish surname, Roney. Considering there's never been any Arsenal players with this name, this jersey was likely personalized for a fan.
It's no surprise that Gooners would want their own personalized goalie shirt, resembling that of David Seaman's, as the English footballer is the second-most capped goalie in the country. Seaman's time with Arsenal is also often considered to have been the peak of his career.
One of his most memorable feats came during the team's 1995 vie to become the first club to ever successfully retain the UEFA Cup Winner's Cup. The Gunners secured their place in the final thanks to Seaman's penalty-saving expertise, as the semi-final came down to a shoot-out against U.C. Sampdoria. Seaman saved three of the five penalty shots, even though he was playing with two cracked ribs.
Fits like a modern unisex adult oversized small. There is some wear on the front, see pics.
