A Nod to 1983

Nike’s decision to embrace the pinstripe is a direct homage to the early 1980s. The club has explicitly stated that the new kits take inspiration from the 1982-83 season, a legendary year that saw the Seagulls march all the way to the FA Cup Final. For many longtime fans, the design brings back memories of that famous run, while providing the current squad with one of the sharpest looks in the league.
