Burton Albion FC has unveiled a stunning tribute to its heritage with the launch of the Limited Edition 1950 Home Shirt. As part of the club’s 75th-anniversary celebrations for the 2025-26 season, this exclusive release reimagines the very first kit worn by the Brewers, blending vintage aesthetics with modern craftsmanship.

Retro Design Meets Modern Craftsmanship
Produced by long-time manufacturer TAG Sportswear, the shirt features the iconic half-amber, half-black design that defined the club’s inaugural look in 1950. The bold split-colorway is complemented by a classic collar and cuffs detailed with the Staffordshire knot—a subtle nod to local pride.
Key design features include:

• Sponsor-Free Chest: In a rare move, club sponsors have stepped aside, allowing a bold, off-white “1950” to take center stage across the front.
• Commemorative Detailing: The reverse of the shirt displays “BREWERS 75” in large retro typography, celebrating three-quarters of a century of football history.
• Gold Accents: A special 75th-anniversary crest and a black-and-gold hem label add a premium finish to the garment.
A True Collector’s Item

This release is strictly limited to just 75 individually numbered shirts, making it one of the rarest items in the club’s history. Each jersey comes in a premium presentation box with gold embossing and includes a certificate of authenticity, ensuring its status as a future collector’s piece.
Celebrating 75 Years of the Brewers
More than just a piece of merchandise, this shirt tells the story of Burton Albion’s journey from non-league roots to the English Football League. By removing modern commercial elements and focusing on the year it all began, the 1950 Home Shirt offers fans a tangible connection to the club’s founding era.
For supporters looking to own a piece of history, this limited edition release is a perfect celebration of the Brewers’ past, present, and future.
