Description
Match worn or issued AS Roma home shirt from the club’s number #18 during the 1989-1990 season. AS Roma normally used the numbers 1 to 11 for the starting XI on the pitch. The number 18 was most likely issued for or worn by a player in the pre-season because during friendlies numbers higher than 16 were also used by substitute players.
The shirt has all the characteristics of a match shirt: correct player sized number on the back from felt material which is double stitched giving the number the famous Ennerre zig-zag pattern, short sleeved (not commercially available in stores), but above all no internal labels. Fanshop shirts from this period had internal labels with the Ennerre brand logo on it. Furthermore, AS Roma’s club logo, the wolf, was present on the right side of the chest instead of the left side in the 1989-90 season. This was not the case in the previous years and the next seasons.
This model is characterized by the light cotton fabric and the smooth collar as well as the edges of the sleeves. The shirt was bought together with another Roma match shirt.
