Arsenal have launched a new retro apparel collection in association with adidas Originals, which includes a throwback to their 'bruised banana' kit of the early 90s.
The famous yellow away jersey, worn for two years between 1991-93, is part of the collection alongside sweaters and tracksuits which recognise the vintage era of clothing from the 1990s.
And the Gunners have called on players past and present to feature in the photo and video shoot for the launch - Ian Wright, Nigel Winterburn and David Seaman all feature, as do Alexandre Lacazette, Hector Bellerin and David Luiz.
Arsenal legend Ian Wright said of the adidas collection: 'It’s great to see adidas and Arsenal bringing back some of the iconic designs which were such a big part of my career in the 90’s.
'It is probably something a lot of the fans would have been hoping for once the partnership was announced.
'It made sense for the current away shirt to be inspired by the original bruised banana jersey and likewise to bring the old one back as well for a one off.'
