Arsenal Launches New Retro Clothing Range Under Ray Parlour’s Direction. Arsenal has unveiled a new retro clothing range under the guidance of former star Ray Parlour. The Gunners are known for bringing out unique clothing items for fans to purchаse, such as their London Underground-inspired Adidas range that was released in January.
The iconic 2001-02 home shirt has been reimaged, and a pop-up store was opened to promote the retro collection. The clothes feature Arsenal’s famous gold away kit from the 2001-02 campaign.
It comes as no surprise that Parlour, who scored in the FA Cup final that year to help Arsenal secure the double, was the creative director for the new range. The club has introduced retro fits to their online shop, all featuring the old badge that was scrapped in 2002.
Parlour recently celebrated the opening of ‘Ray’s Fashion Parlour’ in Soho, offering a variety of clothing items from varsity jackets to tracksuits, sweatshirts, tees, and hoodies.
Parlour expressed his excitement in honoring a heyday in Arsenal’s history and making the new goods available through the interactive web store run by Arsenal Direct.
The new collection was showcased by Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard, alongside defenders William Saliba and Konstantinos Mavropanos. Eddie Nketiah also posed in the new gear, while Parlour channelled his inner Steve Jobs in a black turtleneck.
