Tights, gloves, snoods – what are football’s fashion trends?
One of the rarer football fashion choices is that of tracksuit bottoms, which goalkeepers are allowed to wear.
They are among the game’s more retro fashion choices, though former Crystal Palace No 1 Gabor Kiraly famously wore them throughout his career.
“I’m a goalie, not a model,” he once said. “I’ve played on clay or grass that’s been frozen in winter; it makes your legs hurt when you fall so jogging bottoms seemed obvious.”
Former Manchester United goalkeeper Massimo Taibi wore tracksuit bottoms during his short stint at Old Trafford, while former Colombia keeper Rene Higuita was wearing them while making his famous scorpion-kick save against England in 1995.
