We honor the kit.

Golden Era Kits finds original football shirts from the 90s to today, checks every one by hand and sends it out in a Time Capsule.

A shirt holds a moment.

A Raúl 7 from 2002. A Beckham from France 98. For a lot of us these shirts are where football started, and they deserve better than a pile on a resale app.

So we do it properly. We source original shirts, verify them against their tags and construction, grade them honestly and photograph the exact shirt you'll receive. Then we pack it the way you'd want to receive it.

How a shirt gets to you.

Source

We buy from collectors and fans, and from people who bring us their shirts to sell.

Authenticate

Tag codes, stitching, crest, print and materials are checked against the original release.

Grade and measure

Every shirt gets a condition score out of 10 and flat measurements, so sizing is never a guess.

Capsule

It's rolled, sealed and boxed in a Time Capsule, ready for the shelf.

The Time Capsule

Every kit ships in its own Time Capsule.

We spent a year designing it, so your shirt arrives the way it deserves: sealed, protected and ready to display.
