Manchester United Champions’ League Authentic N98 Track Jacket brings the Old Century of soccer into the New. Direct-embroidered Man. U. crest at the left chest with Nike Swoosh opposite. Polyester and piqué cotton fabric is double knit for a comfortable, iconic track jacket fit.
The N98’s waist, cuffs, and collar are comfortably ribbed polyester with stretch, cut long at the ends of the set-in sleeve and waist hems for full-coverage. Chin-high collar looks and feels right, finishing this soccer jacket’s comfortable, stylish fit. Layered stripes, piping on the sleeves and across the back, and yarn-died tipping at the hem-bottoms complete the N98’s classic design with accents of popping color. Full-front coil zipper. Zippered double-welt pockets at the sides. “MANCHESTER UNITED” in textured, direct-applied letters across the back.
The N98’s a soccer jacket inspired by the first kit Nike designed for Brasil’s legendary national soccer team in 1998, perfected by Nike Sportswear. Nike Soccer says that every stitch is obsessed over, that the zipper pulls are name-checked, that it’s all about refinement, and that the result is a jacket with detailing you feel. It’s a nearly-perfect mid-weight soccer jacket that looks great.
Under the leadership of legendary coach Sir Alex Ferguson, the Reds have won 26 major honors since he became manager in the 1986 season, including 11 league titles and 2 European Cups. England’s most-supported soccer club fills Old Trafford every home game in red and green and yellow to support United’s relentless quest for glory and silverware, and this season they’re looking to charge back to the Champions’ League final in Germany.
