About this shirt

The River Plate home shirt from 2000/01. Sizes S-XXL. Worn in Argentine Primera.

The fifth season of the Cerveza Quilmes sponsorship, which began in 1996.

The home shirt is the one the season is remembered by — it is the design that appears in every team photo, every highlight and every sticker album of that year, which is why home shirts anchor a collection and away shirts add the variety around them.

The away and third from the same season are listed separately, and we also hold the home shirt from 1999, 1999/00 and 2003/04.

River Plate in 2000/01

The 2000 Clausura — Saviola and Ortega’s title, the last of the young Conejito’s tenure before his record sale to Barcelona at nineteen.

River Plate in the archive

Home, away and third kits, plus kids kits, training wear and jackets, with a deep retro run listed by season. White with a diagonal red sash — la banda — one of the few shirts in football to use a diagonal as its defining feature, and unmistakable because of it. Twenty-eight Argentine league titles and four Copa Libertadores. Our range spans 1986 to the current 2026/27 kits and is retro-weighted — around half of what we hold is from past seasons. Home, away and third kits, plus kids kits, training wear and jackets. Every listing states the season and the cut.

Printing, delivery and returns

Name and number printing is free on this shirt. For a shirt of this season that means the lettering of the period, not a modern typeface — a 1996 England shirt takes the block of that summer, a late-nineties Serie A shirt the league numerals it was designed around. We hold period sets as well as current league and tournament fonts. Choose a squad player and the number is applied as issued, or send any name and number you want. Printing adds one to two working days before dispatch, and printed shirts cannot be returned unless faulty — if unsure of the size, order it plain and we print it afterwards for the same price. Full detail on the printing page.

Tracked as standard, everywhere — packed flat between card, never folded into a bag. Allow 7–14 days from order to delivery.

The same rate applies to every country: free over £30, otherwise £3.95, tracked, in the same 7–14 days. Orders outside the UK may attract import duty on arrival, which is the customer’s responsibility. Full tables on the shipping page.

30 days from delivery to change your mind — longer than the 14-day statutory minimum. Email hello@shirt-archive.com with your order number before posting anything back; send it unworn with tags attached, and the refund goes to the original payment method within five working days of arrival. If we sent the wrong thing, postage is on us both ways. Full policy on the returns page.

Common questions

Which season is this River Plate home shirt from?

This is the 2000/01 home shirt. The season is stated on every listing and on the order confirmation, so what arrives is the season named here, not a current substitute.

What size should I order?

Sizes run S-XXL. Measure pit to pit on a shirt you own and compare it with the chart above — between sizes, take the larger.

Can I get a name and number printed on it?

Yes — free, applied before dispatch, which adds one to two working days. Printed shirts cannot be returned unless faulty, so if you are unsure of the size, order plain and we print it afterwards for the same price.

How quickly will it arrive?

Allow 7–14 days from order to delivery, everywhere. Standard tracked is £3.95, and orders over £30 ship free to every country. Everything is tracked, including international.

Is this the exact design worn in 2000/01?

Yes — this listing is the 2000/01 home design specifically, not a current shirt standing in for it. If we hold the same design in other cuts they are listed separately.

Will a retro shirt fit like a modern one?

No — shirts of this era were cut looser. A nineties Large sits closer to a modern Medium, which is why the flat measurements above matter more than the size on the label.
