Resale app Depop has revealed searches using the term “football shirts” have risen by 141 per cent in recent weeks — especially “retro football shirts”.
Kim Kardashian is one star to opt for a throwback strip, which can retail for up to £450 on eBay.
It comes after a row over Nike adding purple and blue to the St George’s Cross on the new England strip.
Kim kicked off the vintage trend in January last year when she sported an AS Roma shirt from 1997 while out in LA.
In the space of two days, Google searches for the Italian side had soared by 2.3million.
Rita Ora made a fashion statement in a vibrant yellow Genoa strip to celebrate the club’s 130th birthday.
And last week, Dua Lipa posed in an old-style replica jersey to promote new single Training Season.
Even designer brands are using nostalgia to score style points.
In December, Chanel hosted its catwalk show in Manchester and treated VIPs to a private suite at the Manchester United v Chelsea game the night before — with classic football shirts gifted to their high-end guests.
Meanwhile, Romeo Beckham’s on-off model girlfriend Mia Regan debuted Stella McCartney’s Arsenal collaboration in her latest campaign, wearing a baby blue and pink top that had echoes of kits gone by.

Balenciaga then recruited Bella Hadid to model their link-up with Adidas, which saw her don gear resembling the iconic 1998 Man Utd strip.
In fact, Adidas launched a whole range of retro-style shirts from the mid-Nineties because demand was so high.
Actress Zendaya was photographed in a vintage, footie-inspired jacket by Adidas Originals and designer Wales Bonner for the May issue of British Vogue.
In 2016, rapper Drake donned a pastel pink jersey to show his love for Italian team Juventus, and High Street brand Bershka now sells themed footwear, such as heeled lace-ups.
Here, we reveal some of the most in-demand, vintage footie jerseys.
