Manchester United Kit 2003–04, 2004–05

Manchester United Football Shirt History 

2003–04, 2004–05

Design: NIKE
Sponsor: VODAFONE
Although perhaps not the luckiest of colours
for United, black was chosen as the club's new
away strip for the 03–04 season and was
promoted by a stern-looking Roy Keane in preseason
publicity photos. The kit featured yet
another variation in stitching and trim and
included a trendy round neck, along with a
very subtle shadow pattern featuring tiny
crosses combined with easy-breathe material
panels under the arms.
The shirt was also often
worn with the white shorts from the third kit.
Worn in: A 1–0 win over Liverpool followed by a
4–2 thrashing of Arsenal (both 04–05). Also
that season, the disappointing FA Cup final
defeat against the Gunners.
Worn by: Eric Djemba-Djemba, Danny Pugh.
