World Cup Christmas jumpers range brings back Gareth Southgate waistcoat knitwear

The perfect gift for footie fans is back for the festive season - and just in time for the World Cup too - with a new collection of Christmas jumpers.

The creators of the popular Gareth Southgate waistcoat jumper, notjust clothing, have brought back the knitwear inspired by the England manager's dapper attire for one last outing this year in a limited run. And the range has some new additions inspired by football both past and present.

Fans can kit themselves out in a throwback to the nineties with festive jumpers inspired by the blue 1990 World Cup training shirt and red England 1990 World Cup Finals Away Shirt. The diamond-patterned blue jumper sports the Three Lions logo, while on the back is the message "It's Coming Home 4 Christmas".

There's also the 'It's Coming Home 22' jumper inspired by the kit that took England all the way to Wembley at last year's Euros. The unisex knitwear features the England crest and a captain's armband that reads "Good times never seemed so good" in reference to Neil Diamond's iconic anthem Sweet Caroline.

A footie-inspired blanket is available from the collection to keep you warm this winter too, paying a well-deserved tribute to the Lionesses after they finally brought it home for England at the Euros. The blanket sports images of some of the most iconic moments of the tournament, from Chloe Kelly's winning goal celebration to Alessia Russo's back heel goal.

With prices starting from £34.99, 50% of profits from the sale of the jumpers will be donated to Football Beyond Borders, an education and social inclusion charity using the power of football to change the lives of young people, and Bloomsbury Football, a London-based grassroots football charity changing the game for young people in London.

Notjust co-founder Matt Clarke said: "It’s Coming Home! We can feel it and what better time of the year to bring it home than Christmas. We’ve created this new collection of festive footy knits to give fans a fun (and practical) kit to wear whilst they're cheering on England at the most wonderful time of the year, whilst also giving back to society through a charitable donation. Also, we figured footy tees might be a little brisk in this weather!"
