Working with our colleagues at Getty Images, we’ve put together a gallery of Spurs home shirts through the years, dating all the way back to 1912.
Focussing on the evolution of our famous Lilywhite shirt, see how our iconic kit has changed over the last 11 decades, from the start of the 20th century, all the way to the present day - as well as the many legendary faces to have worn our famous colours.
