Sporting Lisbon jerseys from the 1990/91 season: first year with Umbro
The decade started with another change of shirt supplier, to the English Umbro, for two years only. This company was able to produce beautiful sober jerseys, even if it used, as was usual at the time, fabrics with in-built patterns. The kits worn by the Sporting Lisbon football players had a green colour in line with the Sporting Lisbon standard, while some of the replica kits (albeit not all) had a "bottle green" with a red component too strong for Sporting.
The Sporting Clube de Portugal away jersey was a classic white, with green details. It was fortunately a lot less bold than other Umbro kits of the early nineties. No Stromp kitswere ever produced by Umbro for Sporting.
The sponsor was Bonança in the two Umbro years. It was written in blue, while previous sponsorhip publicity on the jerseys had been in black, which does not disagree with the green white Sporting colors.
