da luck: From collaborations with Jordan to painted recreations of the Eiffel Tower, GOAL takes a look at some of the French champions' best alternative shirts
da 888casino: Paris Saint-Germain is a club that is inherently associated with style and creativity. Coming from one of the world's pinnacles of fashion, their kits are expected to be extravagant and interesting. And that's especially true with the away and third strips, which have been near purpose-built for streetwear since the 1990s.
Such a mindset has yielded some interesting results. The club have paid homage to famous landmarks, recreated the illuminations of Paris, and collaborated with some of the most recognisable brands around to put together some truly iconic kits.
And so after PSG unveiled their new white away kit for the 2023-24 campaign, GOAL has ranked the 10 best of them from over the years…

Pinstripes? Why not. The 2005-06 PSG away kit may have looked a little like a New York Yankees baseball jersey, but it strangely worked.
It was very much a kit of its time, with a central badge and large sponsor. But like a number of shirts from that era, it has aged well — even if PSG endured a miserable season.

The classic away kit, an inversion of the home strip used for the Pariaisans' first four years of existence, marked PSG's promotion to Ligue 1 in 1974.
It was the first season PSG would play at Parc des Princes, their home of nearly 50 years. And although they finished in 15th in Ligue 1, survival was enough.

This was a miserable season in Paris. The club finished ninth in Ligue 1, and settled for round of 32 exits in both domestic cups. They didn't fare much better in the Champions League, finishing bottom of their group in UEFA's experimental second group stage.
But the kit, a departure from the bright strips of prior years, was clean.
7Football becomes fashion (2006-07)
Since dubbed 'the Louis Vuitton shirt', PSG's away kit from 2006-07 is the Parisians' most obvious homage to the designer brands to come out of the club's city. The Eiffel Tower and PSG lettering printed on the front of the kit directly mimicked the signature LV print.
It was far from a successful season on the pitch — the team finished 15th in Ligue 1 — but this shirt has become a cult favourite.
