The Athletic Bilbao 1986–87 Home Retro Football Shirt recreates the classic red and white striped design worn at San Mamés during the club's celebrated 1980s adidas era.
Worn during the 1986–87 campaign under legendary former goalkeeper José Ángel Iribar, the shirt was associated with a squad featuring Manu Sarabia, Andoni Goikoetxea, Estanis Argote, Genar Andrinua, Santi Urkiaga and Ismael Urtubi. Sarabia led the club's league scoring with 11 goals during the season.
Featuring Athletic's traditional red and white vertical stripes, classic adidas styling and a clean sponsor-free front, the shirt captures the unmistakable appearance of football at San Mamés during the mid-1980s. The design was carried over from the previous campaign and was worn in both domestic competition and the UEFA Cup.

Rec. Player Printing Options
Printing Recommendation No.10 — Manu Sarabia Best Player Choice. Athletic's leading league scorer in 1986–87 and one of the defining attacking players of the club's successful 1980s generation. No.4 — Andoni Goikoetxea The strongest internationally recognisable alternative and a key defender from Athletic's championship-winning early-1980s side. No.11 — Estanis Argote A classic period choice representing one of Athletic's most recognisable attacking players from the club's 1980s golden generation. No.5 — Genar Andrinua A strong club-identity choice. Andrinua made 36 league appearances during the season and later became one of Athletic's most important long-serving defenders. No.2 — Santi Urkiaga An especially authentic 1980s Athletic option from the long-serving right-back who made 40 league appearances during the campaign. No.8 — Urtubi A strong midfield alternative from another important member of Athletic's 1980s side; he made 31 league appearances and scored three times in 1986–87. Best Player Choice No.10 — Manu Sarabia
Second Choice No.4 — Goikoetxea
Third Choice No.11 — Argote
No.10 — Manu Sarabia is the standout player choice for the Athletic Bilbao 1986–87 Home Retro Football Shirt. Sarabia remained one of the leading attacking figures of Athletic's celebrated 1980s generation and finished the 1986–87 league campaign as the club's top scorer with 11 goals.
No.4 — Andoni Goikoetxea provides a highly recognisable defensive alternative and represents another important member of Athletic's championship-winning generation. No.11 — Estanis Argote is an equally authentic period choice, closely associated with the club's classic attacking side of the 1980s. Athletic's official records confirm all three were members of the 1986–87 squad.
This shirt uses authentic period-style number-only printing, reflecting the original Athletic Club match shirts of the era. Player names are not included on the back.
