Tottenham Away Shirt Pony 1995-97 Hewlett Packard vintage L

Tottenham 1995-97 — The Pony away shirt with Hewlett Packard on the chest

Between 1995 and 1997, Tottenham Hotspur wore a kit manufacturer that is no longer seen on any pitch today: Pony. A cult name for connoisseurs, an instantly recognisable shirt silhouette for anyone who grew up with 90s Premier League. This authentic vintage away shirt size L with the sponsor Hewlett Packard — one of the most iconic partnerships in Spurs' history — is a piece straight out of a pivotal era of English football.

What this shirt represents

The mid-90s was a period of intense transition for Tottenham Hotspur. The club was navigating the turbulent waters of a nascent and explosive Premier League, undergoing major restructuring, looking to regain the level it had achieved in previous decades. This away shirt is a direct reflection of that era — ambitious in its design, worn by a club that lacked neither talent nor character, even if trophies were slow to come.

These two seasons saw high-quality players defend the colours of White Hart Lane. Teddy Sheringham, before his move to Manchester United in 1997, was the attacking face of Spurs — a technical, intelligent striker capable of carrying a team on his shoulders. Darren Anderton in midfield, regularly injured but undeniably talented when fit, represented the hope of an entire generation of supporters. And behind them, Ian Walker in goal held the fort seriously in a team still searching for its formula.

Moments etched in this shirt

Sheringham's rise to power
Teddy Sheringham finished the 1995-96 season among the top scorers in the Premier League, confirming his status as one of the most formidable strikers in English football's elite. Seeing his name associated with this Pony shirt is to directly touch upon what was most electric in Spurs football of that era.

The Pony era at Tottenham — a unique interlude
Pony only supplied Spurs from 1995 to 1997 — a short period, which makes each shirt from this collaboration all the rarer on the vintage collector's jersey market. This American equipment manufacturer, prominent in English football in the 90s, completely disappeared from the landscape thereafter, which gives these pieces a special status.

Hewlett Packard — the sponsor that says it all about an era
The HP logo printed on this shirt is the perfect image of 90s football embracing the world of technology and large corporations. Hewlett Packard sponsored Tottenham for several consecutive seasons, a partnership that has become inextricably linked to the visual identity of Spurs from the mid-90s in the eyes of collectors.

Authentic vs Replica

An authentic vintage jersey is not the same as a mass-produced replica. A real match shirt — or a high-end supporter's shirt of the time — features specific finishes, original labels, and materials that have aged in a certain way. This is exactly what you have in your hands here: an original period piece, not a re-issue, not a copy.

The pulls and bobbles mentioned in the condition are the signature of a shirt that has been actually used and washed as it would have been back then — it's not a disqualifying defect, it's living proof of its authenticity. A vintage shirt in perfect 10/10 condition smells new and like it's been stored. This one smells like real 90s football.

Vintage Sizing Guide

Please note, vintage 90s sizes do not correspond to modern standards. A 1995-97 L is generally equivalent to a current M, or even an S depending on the cut. Shirts from that era were cut closer to the body, with less material and more fitted shoulders than today's loose cuts.

Before confirming your order, measure your current shirt flat: shoulder to shoulder width and back length. Compare with our available measurements. This is the only way to be sure to avoid a bad surprise — a collector's jersey in the right size makes all the difference.

Why have it in your collection

The Tottenham 1995-97 Pony away shirt is a combination of rarity that speaks for itself: a kit manufacturer that no longer exists in European football, an iconic sponsor from a bygone era, and a production window of only two seasons. In the vintage Tottenham shirt market, circulating copies are few, and each piece that reappears is an opportunity not to be missed.

In 7/10 condition, this shirt remains very decent for a worn period piece — pulls and bobbles are visible but do not damage the structure or the flocking. Not many in this condition are still circulating freely. Most examples from this generation were worn out completely or disappeared into attics. This one is here, available, now.
