From 1924 to Glory: The Timeless Legacy of Umbro

Umbro was founded in 1924 by Harold and Wallace Humphreys in Manchester, England. The name "Umbro" is a portmanteau of "Humphreys Brothers."

From its inception, Umbro specialized in football (soccer) apparel and equipment. The brand quickly gained a reputation for providing high-quality football kits and gear. Umbro became widely known on the international stage through its association with the FIFA World Cup. The brand first supplied kits for the English national team in the 1950s and continued to do so for several decades. One of the defining moments in Umbro's history was England's victory in the 1966 FIFA World Cup. The iconic image of England captain Bobby Moore holding the Jules Rimet Trophy while wearing an Umbro kit became synonymous with the brand.

Umbro experienced changes in ownership over the years. In 2008, the company was acquired by Nike, a move that aimed to strengthen Nike's position in the football market. In 2012, Umbro was sold by Nike to the Iconix Brand Group, marking its return to independence. The brand continued to focus on football-related products. Umbro's historical significance and cultural impact extend beyond the field. The brand's double diamond logo is recognizable to football fans worldwide.
