On this special episode of The Arsenal Opinion, we sit down with legendary Nike kit designer Drake Ramberg—the creative mind behind some of the most iconic Arsenal shirts of the '90s and early 2000s. From designing the lightning bolt kit that helped redefine Arsenal’s image, to wild goalkeeper shirts that broke every rule, Drake takes us on a journey through his career—from growing up in Portland and falling in love with art and sport, to reshaping European football aesthetics with Nike. We talk: Cultural immersion and the design process at Nike How Arsenal's shift from Adidas to Nike sparked a creative revolution Working on kits for PSG, Dortmund, and the Italian national team That David Seaman star shirt 😍 Why hoop socks should make a comeback How club identity and bold design choices go hand-in-hand If you’re a kit nerd, a design junkie, or just nostalgic for when football shirts were actual pieces of art—this one is a must-listen.
