Story & heritage
Wikipedia notes that Umbro nylon shorts peaked in the United States in the late 1980s and early 1990s, becoming everyday wear as youth soccer grew. The official Shop Umbro assortment now carries a checkered nylon 7-inch short as a direct contemporary echo.
The current official Shop Umbro product page keeps it in the active North American assortment, giving the archival football language a present retail form.
