Football culture doesn’t stop at the final whistle. It follows supporters onto trains, through stations and across borders, wherever the away leg takes them. Umbro’s new Away Days collection pays tribute to that pilgrimage, and the people who make it season after season. Shot across platforms, departure boards and the in-between spaces of transit, the campaign captures that particular kind of anticipation, the hours before kick-off spent moving through a city that isn’t yours. Luggage in hand, kit half-hidden under a jacket. The waiting is part of the ritual. Shop The Away Days Collection The collection draws on terrace culture and the Casuals movement of the 80s and 90s, when English fans travelling to Italy first blurred the line between football and fashion. Signature pieces include the Shersey, an away jersey reworked with formal shirting details, the Pinstripe Drill Top, bringing 90s training wear into a sharper contemporary shape, and the Trench Coat, a nod to the coaches once seen wrapped up pitch-side. Manchester and Milan sit at the heart of it, British tailoring meeting understated Italian sophistication. Devotion, destination, dress, Away Days brings all three together in one confident read on what it means to follow the game away from home. Umbro’s Away Days collection. Part 1 available now.

They came over on ships. Whole families, one suitcase each, a country behind them and an ocean in the way. They brought what they could carry. A language. Traditions. A way of making coffee. And of course the game. Football didn't get left at the dock. It got played on new grounds, in a new country, and it got passed down the way everything else did. From Papou to father to son. From the horio to the backyard kipo. From Greece to suburbs that slowly started to feel like home. That's who the Hellas jersey is for. Not a costume. A kit. Worn by the generation that arrived, the one born here, and the one still to come. Same shirt. Same story. This is Home Away From Home, Part 2: Greece. The Hellas jersey is online now.

Red and white. The checks. One look and you know exactly who someone is, and where they're from. Croatians brought the pattern with them. Across the water, into new cities, onto grounds that had never seen it. They put it on a shirt and built clubs around it. Clubs like Melbourne Knights. Somewhere to speak the language, hear the songs, and watch your kids grow up in the same colours you did. Not just a team. A home. That's what this kit carries. The coast and the club. The old country and the new suburb. The grandfather who arrived and the grandkid born here, both in the same red and white. Some things you don't leave behind. You wear them.   This is Home Away From Home, Part 1: Croatia. The kit is online now.

Umbro teamed up with Into Carry for a series of upcycling workshops held in Melbourne, transforming deadstock football kits into handmade carry bags. Built around archived Umbro jerseys that had elapsed in season, the workshops gave participants the chance to learn how to deconstruct and sew old kits into functional everyday pieces. Each bag was made by hand using existing materials, meaning every outcome ended up different. The project ran across two sessions on February 28. The first opened to the public through a giveaway, with five winners invited into the workshop alongside a plus one. A second session brought together friends, family and local creatives inside the studio space. More than just a workshop, the project created an opportunity for Umbro to connect more directly with its local community through a shared hands-on experience. Guided by the Into Carry team, participants worked through the full process from cutting patterns and breaking down garments through to sewing and reconstruction. Some arrived with sewing experience, others were using a machine for the first time. What started as outdated teamwear was reworked into something completely different. Old shirts, panels and trims repurposed into one-off bags designed to keep being used. The workshops focused on learning new skills, extending the lifespan of existing materials and exploring a more hands-on approach to football apparel through upcycling and reconstruction.
