If you thought the various retina-pummelling ‘keeper kit designs on show in the Premier League in the early-to-mid 1990s were bile-inducingly vile, then feast your eyes on this little lot. Turns out the Argentinians had it worse. Far worse.

WARNING: Some of these kits are probably best viewed through welding goggles if you happen to enjoy your eyes functioning normally.

Oscar Fernando Passet, San Lorenzo, 1993

Someone phone Medicorp, I think I’m having a seizure…

Roberto Abbondanzieri, Rosario Central, 1994/95

Sadly, the ‘tessellating geckos’ look failed to get off the ground…

Enzo Leonardo Noce, Gimnasia, 1994/95

Someone spiked the Hummel design department’s Orangina again…

Carlos Navarro Montoya, Boca Juniors, 1994/95… 

Legendary in ‘Shit Kit’ circles (there’s a little further reading on this self-designed monstrosity available here)…

Gustavo Campagnuolo, Deportivo Español, 1994

Like someone was asked to draw their mental state after a three-day acid binge…

Sergio Goycochea, River Plate, 1993/94

*Gip*

Jose Luis “El Buldog” Chilavert, Velez Sarsfield…

The first professional goalkeeper ever to score a hat-trick (versus Ferro Carril Oeste in 1999) wore the bulldog motif on his chest for most of his Velez career and, to be fair, it’s actually rather cool – but those shoulder pads…good grief man!

Fernando Alvez, San Lorenzo, 1995/96

A classic “I didn’t sign up for this” face if ever we saw one…

Faryd Mondragon, Independiente, 1994/95

Speaking of which…

Happy as Larry!

Now if you’ll excuse us, we have some purging to be getting on with.
