Hoops Without Name

Not every shirt arrives with an identity card. Some turn up at flea markets, on Vinted or at the bottom of a job lot, with immaculate green and white hoops and no clue about the club that wore them: a faded local sponsor, a brand that no longer exists, a hand sewn number. They are the shirts of factory teams, village sides and neighbourhood clubs that played in leagues no archive ever recorded. This section is dedicated to them. Every piece displayed here carries what could be established, the fabric that dates it, the sponsor that places it, the detail that makes it unique, and an open door: if you recognise any of these shirts, if you played in one or against one, write to us. Hoopster is also this, giving names back to those who wore the hoops.
