Audacious Copy Of AIK's Kit - Nike Torquay United 120-Years Anniversary Kit Released
English club Torquay United last week released a stunning special-edition kit to celebrate the club's 120-years anniversary.
Torquay United was founded in 1899 by former students of the town’s college. They have represented their local community with distinction for well over a century and have fans around the world. In 2019-20 Torquay United will play in the National League, the fifth tier of English football, after winning the National League South during the 2018–19 season.
The new Nike Torquay United FC 120-years kit directly reminds of of the kits of iconic Swedish club AIK - it is obvious that the club got inspired by them.

Inspired by United’s black and white kits of the 1930s and the AIK limited-edition kits released this and last year, the limited-edition Torquay United jersey is black with gold used for the club crest, Swoosh, and commemorative "1899" numbering on front. The kit itself is not unique but just the Nike Park VI jersey with a golden Swoosh.
On either side of the minimalist version of the Gulls’ badge are the anniversary years – 1899 on the left, 2019 on the right.
The Nike Torquay United FC 120th anniversary jersey retail at a price of 60 GBP. This is quite insane as the teamwear Nike Park VI jersey is available for less than 10 GBP.
