Some of the Tottenham Hotspur home kits Nike have produced have been total flops and the new Spurs 2025/26 design is their worst effort yet.
Tottenham Hotspur have had flashy, bizarre and just plain ugly away and third kit designs in the past few years. Some have been a hit with the supporters, while others have given them the ick.
The home shirts, on the other hand, are often just a bit boring. After all, there is only so much you can do with white and navy. However, people still have their opinions on them, and the most recent addition has failed to hit the mark.
Nike have made the decision to centralise the logos, like the bright yellow 2020/21 third kit and the 22/23 away. This just seems like a tired strategy to make the shirt more interesting. It features navy on the shoulders, which might have looked okay on its own. However, the added grey colour makes the strip look ugly. Other than that, it is just a plain white shirt.
The new home kit has failed to impress, but some historic Spurs shirts have been worse. Here is every jersey which is even more revolting:
Spurs 2009/10 white and yellow home kit
The first few home kits Puma made for Spurs are the most boring you will see. A plain white shirt with a few logos on it, coming up with the design concept must have taken about 10 minutes. The 08/09 got slightly more interesting with a thin strip of navy on the V-neck collar and lower sleeves.
One season later, Puma decided to start getting inventive and the result was a disaster. The 09/10 kit may bring to mind players like Luka Modric and Jermain Defoe, but going off the design alone, it is shocking!
MORE SPURS STORIES
There is more yellow on the shirt than navy and its placement is a little odd, particularly the thin, tilted lines at the top. The Mansion sponsor always looked ugly and it became even worse when additional text was added. Like AIA, it means red must feature on the kit, but at least the current sponsor does not look like an eyesore.
The overall kit looks better with the navy shorts, but it still earns the unwanted spot as Tottenham’s worst-ever home kit.
Tottenham home kit dishonourable mentions
Some past kits are not quite as bad as the latest offering, but they certainly came close. The first two Puma shirts were incredibly dull and the same could be said of the 04/05 Kappa kit, which once again was just a plain white shirt.
The 18/19 kit is another which could be deemed equally as bad as the current one, but for different reasons. The gradient fade from navy to white did not look great and when Spurs wore white shorts in Europe, the kit did not work at all.
One which is dividing opinions here at The Spurs Web is the 15/16 shirt. Personally, this is one of my favourite Tottenham kits. The balance between white and navy is perfect and Under Armour tried something out of the ordinary. However, some are unable to get past the fact the navy stripe looks like a seatbelt and would rank it among the worst ever.
What do you think is the worst-ever Tottenham Hotspur home shirt?
