7 of the best items to pick up in the United Direct sale
Even though we're in the midst of a global pandemic, you can still get yourself kitted out in all the official Manchester United gear you could ever want by shopping the club's online store.
There is a sale on right now, with up to 25% off this season's kits and discounts available on numerous other items. Here's a look at some of the best things there are to buy.
New Era 39THIRTY Cap
New Era do some great United headwear and this monochrome red design is no exception.
There is a choice of two sizes and it is a stretch fit which means no need to adjust it and should provide an extra level of comfort to your standard cap.
Man Utd Face Masks
While the vaccines being administered mean that an end is in sight to the pandemic that has ruled our lives for close to a year, it is not over yet and face coverings are going to play an important role for several more months to reduce the risk of infection.
If you want to change things up, why not sport your colours while you do your part and stay vigilant.
Coming as a pack of three, these United face masks by adidas are washable, soft and breathable, and made from 93% recycled polyester.
‘United for the Heroes’ T-Shirt
The last 12 months have forced everyone to take stock and reconsider the things that are most important and give thanks to the people who make our lives what they are, whether it be health workers, supermarket staff or delivery drivers.
This ‘United for the Heroes’ t-shirt has been created to support the great charity work done by the Manchester United Foundation. The club will donate all proceeds from the sale of this piece, which comes in deep black featuring a bold motif, to the Foundation.
2021 Desk Calendar
The New Year has begun and January is well underway, but it definitely isn’t too late to grab yourself a new desk calendar. This one relives the Sir Alex Ferguson glory years, with pictures of some of United’s greatest moments of the 1990s and 2000s.
Man Utd Reversible Backpack
You can choose red or black depending on the look you want to go for on any given day with this United reversible backpack, bringing some style to your travels, school, college or work.
The red side features ‘Manchester United’ across the front below the club badge and has red trim, but the back side is a little more subtle with the badge alone.
1999 Retro Shirt
The 1998/99 season was arguably the best on record for United when the club won the Premier League, FA Cup and Champions League to cap off an historic campaign that has still never been matched by any other English team.
The red home shirt with the zip neck and ‘Sharp’ branding is an iconic look that is now available to buy as an official retro product, so you can keep the glory days alive.
2020/21 Home Shirt
There is increasingly every chance that this season could be one to remember as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and a new look squad finally return to the Premier League title race. The women’s side are also flying high in the WSL in 2020/21.
The current home shirt is one of the nicest looks United have had in recent years, with plain red traded in for a more interesting pattern and design, and it is now discounted even though half of the campaign is still left to play.
Player printing for both the men’s and women’s squad is also available at an extra cost.
