David Beckham joins fellow 'Class of 92' members to launch new trainers

Manchester was taken 25 years back in time on Friday, with United stars of the early 90s gathered together - in fittingly retro tracksuits.

The 'Class of 92' were united at the launch of the Adidas '92' trainer at Old Trafford, where the six players made their names.

David Beckham, Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Paul Scholes, Nicky Butt and Ryan Giggs all donned the bright red shoes for the official unveiling.

All six players also wore Manchester United tracksuits with a suitably nineties design as they reunited at the club's home ground.

While five of the former players work together regularly on a number of ventures - most notably ownership of Salford City FC - Beckham is less regularly seen with his former team mates.

However he looked happy to be with his former colleagues, chatting and sharing jokes with players with who he helped build United into one of world football's most dominant forces.

Beckham, Scholes, Butt, Giggs and the Neville brothers were all in the United academy together and began to break into the first team in the early to mid 90s - hence the 'Class of 92' moniker.

Together the team dominated the early years of the Premier League, before winning their crowning glory in the 1999 Champions League final.

Beckham then left United to join Real Madrid, while Butt also departed for Newcastle and Phil Neville for Everton, however the other three all spent their entire playing careers with United.

It is the second footwear launch Beckham has been involved with for Adidas in recent weeks.

He also launched the x David Beckham Capsule Collection celebrating the 20-year relationship between the former England captain and the company, including a remastered version of the Predator Accelerator.

The three shirt numbers synonymous with his career are marked on the heel of each shoe - 23, which he wore at Real, 32, his number at PSG, and No 7, the number he donned playing for United and England.
