Which is Arsenal’s best looking shirt sponsor ever?
Shirt sponsors might be one football’s overlooked features, but they really determine the appearance of a jersey and more often than not, its beauty.
Arsenal have had four different shirt sponsors during Arsene Wenger’s era; from Japanese electronic company JVC, to video game developers SEGA, then telecommunications network O2 and now ‘Fly Emirates’ of Emirates Airline.
If you have been a long-serving Arsenal fan, you may have witnessed all these change of looks to the club’s kit along with the notable change of crest in 2002.
So check out the images below, have your flashbacks and choose which shirt sponsor made Arsenal’s jersey look the best over the years?

JVC looks best by a country mile. Just ask Harry Enfield’s Stavros.
i think best looking sponsor on our shirt was O2
o2 any day. We were invincible with them on the shirt too 😛
The jvc logo for sure. the cleanest and nicest. to many letters in the new one, but not ugly
the best sponsor so far is O2
Personally, I’m going with the O2….too classy. And the football that we played in it was also too classy.
JVC but not on that shirt in pic
I actually like the one we have now, not the away jersey though for sure. I think, despite the crest being a tad too complicated this time round, the actual shirt design is really clean and nice.
I don’t mind the new one, but the scum at Chelsea also once had ‘Fly Emirates’ on their shirt before us.
O2 just looks like a cool geometric design.
And O2 = 38 – 24 -12 – 0
O2 is d bst
Never get involved in blogging debates. But I just have to make an input here. No competition O2. Its the best ever jersey I have ever seen. Real class!
From the first time I saw it I fell in love with the classic stylish design.
O2 is it.no long grammer.
O2 :D!!
O2
I think the one of o2 nd fly emirates
mine’s with Dreamcast in the center…. I just love it… but to sum it all, O2 by far the best, now even with the big chest on the left side is second!
I go for 02
I go for 02 if not the best
JVC ALL THE WAY,,my first shirt was the yellow adidas wit 3 stripes on the right shoulder,,class shirt,,,probly da reason im a gooner
The o2 jersey is the best on my own
The O2 is simplt the best. i really love it and is unarguably the best ever!!!
The O2 logo is the best because it actually looks less like a logo than any of the others. It’s almost part of the shirt design.
HOWEVER, the actual shirt itself that season (in this particular pic) was itself a classic design. The gold inlay piping and the loose round neck plus the centralised crest. No wonder no one could beat us. The best!
I tynk d 02 apeal more to me…what do u tynk?
Q2 best for me. Second are JVC. Fly Emirates is poor,
Would say dreamcast!!
I have collected almost all of arsenal’s jerseys starting from the early 90s, and I have to say that the sega and dreamcast era has among our finest strip designs (in my opinion). And my favourite of all is the blue jersey with dreamcast in yellow (i know its not one of our red-and-white strip, but wth its my opinion anyway lol)
I think the O2 one.
the O2 for me followed by JVC!
was there one with wankers written on it? that would be my fav.
… What?!?!
All shirts carrying adverts are obnoxious and none compare with the original smart and
glamourous Red shirt,white collar and long white sleeves.
Also socks with these big turn downs used to help make the players look like
Gladiators coming onto the pitch.
Another let down, both teams coming out together with a load of nursery kids in no way
compares with the home team being led out by its Captain.
Football will kill itself by forgetting what made it so popular that it evolved to where it is today.
But with talk of Sin bins and technicalities the FA are bowing down to TV and TV will one day kill the game.
Do away with stupid yellow and red cards and get back to giving the referee TOTAL POWER and where players “query” by any action whatever his decision their Club should
be punished by points deductions or Cup replays (in cases where their team won)
TV presents the evidence. Therefore Manchester Utds policy of ring fencing the ref would
cease,diving,cheating etc would cease. Get back to the way it always used to be “that the ref is always right” If the ball hits the post its just hard luck, offside decisions are often
wrong, its hard luck. Just get on with the game. Let the ref allow play to flow. Punish the Club after TV evidence warrants it. Sending players off is no fair punishment as the time and score are paramount to it effect. It the foul is that serious award a penalty even if the foul
is outside the area. Thats better than sending off which cheats everybody,players,fans,tv viewers the lot. How crazy can one get!..
Likewise players suspended is no Justice, it all depends on the matches coming up and therefore is unfair. Just let players know blatant cheating,is out, mistimed tackles ok so long as the TV panel can see no cold blooded malice. Lets get back to Football being a Mans game and get rid of all the cissy shirts. Goalkeepers shouyld be in green or yellow.
Arsenals goalkeeper jerseys are downright unglamourous, more like a dustmans outfit.
JVC of course.
People here are choosing season and players bt not the jersey. None that beats the current jersey. 1 word, beautiful
i would like to go for the one with fly emirates kos its fitted and its the players look smart
O2 was the best en remains he best hence it had luck . Nellie Ba
I think O2 looked good.. Maybe it’s because that’s when Arsenal was on its peak!
Pure oxygen 02
I always loved the SEGA Dreamcast shirts. Proper shirts, and the Dreamcast was awesome. Too bad they killed it. Now SEGA is in shambles.
The 1 4 dreamcast wz hot
