The T90 Aerow I is making a comeback before Puma become the official Premier League ball supplier. The Premier League will use a remake of a classic Nike football for the rest of the current season. Nike have released a new version of the T90 Aerow I, which was used during the 2004-05 and 2005-06 seasons and became iconic for it’s blue rings surrounding the Nike swoosh on a white background. The Premier League uses multiple designs of football across the course of each campaign and this new take on an old classic will replace the current Hi-Vis winter ball as the country heads into spring.

It will make its debut on Wednesday night when league leaders Liverpool travel to Champions League-chasing Aston Villa and will be the final ball created for the Premier League by Nike. Having designed the footballs for the English top tier for the past 25 years, Nike will be replaced by Puma as the official ball supplier from the 2025-26 season, so they’ve decided to go out in style. The classic T90 blue rings have had some new details added to bring them in line with the Nike Flight balls currently used, including grooves in the casing which according to the current jargon that comes every time a new football is released “allows the air to travel seamlessly around it delivering truer flight” while a shorter seam length allegedly “allows for a sweeter touch.”.
