Green and gold have been Australia’s football colours for a century. Our retro Australia shirts recreate classic Australia kits from the 1960s through to the 1980s, with simple collars and no modern sponsor or manufacturer logos. Each is handcrafted in the UK from 100% cotton.

Early days

Australia played their first international against New Zealand in Dunedin in 1922. Early sides wore sky blue before the team switched to green and gold in 1924. Our Australia 1960s Away Retro Football Shirt and Australia 1977 Retro Football Shirt carry that long tradition forward.

West Germany, 1974

A largely amateur squad reached Australia’s first World Cup in 1974, drawing with Chile in a group that included both East and West Germany. The Australia 1974 World Cup Qualifying Retro Football Shirt and Australia 1974 World Cup Final Retro Football Shirt recall that breakthrough.

For every Socceroos fan

From the 1980s you’ll find the Australia 1982 Home Retro Football Shirt and Australia 1986 Home Retro Football Shirt, plus away versions, a hoodie and a Harrington jacket. Explore every nation in our retro international shirts collection, or add a name and number to make yours unique.
