The Design
The design does the talking: the Arsenal colors are laid out exactly as the club wore them that season, crest sitting proud on the chest and the lettering true to the campaign. It photographs like a proper football shirt — because it is one.
Fit & Fabric
This is the fan version of the shirt — identical design to the match-day template, cut for real life. The roomier fit and soft-touch knit make it a shirt you actually reach for, whether that is for the stadium, the street, or the sofa on away nights.
Fan Questions, Answered
+I am between two sizes — which should I pick
Size up. A half-size of extra room is barely noticeable, while a shirt that pulls at the chest gets uncomfortable fast. The chart measurements make the final call easy
+Do you have a size chart in inches and centimeters
The chart above shows both inches and centimeters for every size, so US and EU shoppers can each read the numbers they know. Measure your favorite tee and compare — it takes thirty seconds and removes all doubt
+Is this a good shirt for everyday wear, not just match days
Absolutely — that is honestly how most fans use them. Polyester football shirts double as summer tees, gym tops, and streetwear layering pieces. The breathable fabric and bold colors have made them a year-round wardrobe staple far beyond the stadium
+How do I remove stains from a football shirt
Pre-soak the stained area in cold water with a splash of white vinegar or mild detergent for thirty minutes, then wash as usual. Avoid bleach — it yellows polyester and can leave permanent light patches on club colors
+What is the difference between the fan version and player version shirt
The player version mirrors what athletes wear: slim athletic cut, lightweight performance knit, heat-applied crest and numbers. The fan version keeps the identical design in a roomier everyday cut with softer fabric — most fans choose it precisely because it is comfortable beyond match day
+Is this shirt the same design Arsenal wore on the pitch
The colors, crest placement, and design language match the season's on-pitch shirt. It is the look fans recognize instantly, made comfortable for daily wear
+Which player and number is printed on this shirt
This shirt carries Dixon with the number 2 — the name and digits Dixon wore for Arsenal that season. The lettering style matches the season's typography, so the back looks exactly as it did on the pitch
Grab your size, add custom name and number printing if the mood strikes, and this Arsenal shirt with Dixon on the back is ready to wear the moment you open the box. Two shirts in one order cover most fan wardrobes easily.
