AC Milan and PUMA have come together to unveil a special kit celebrating the Italian football club’s 125th anniversary, showcasing the rich history and heritage of the Rossoneri. The new collection, which was shaped by the club’s passionate fanbase through an immersive competition, includes several standout pieces: the Authentic Player Jersey, Goalkeeper Jersey, Retro Football, and a limited-edition Retro Style Jersey.
Limited-Edition Retro Style Jersey
One of the most anticipated items in the collection is the vintage-inspired Retro Style Jersey, which pays homage to AC Milan’s storied past. Only 1,899 units of this special edition jersey will be released, a symbolic nod to the club’s founding year. It will also be available in a long-sleeve version, free from sponsor logos, aside from the PUMA patch, offering a nostalgic look at the club’s early days.
“Design Our Jersey, Design Our Legacy” Campaign
The commemorative kit was created through the “Design Our Jersey, Design Our Legacy” campaign, allowing AC Milan fans to influence the design by making choices that reflect the club’s rich history. The result is a design featuring the iconic broad stripe pattern, first seen on the team’s jerseys in the 1950s, and a badge that honors the club’s original emblem, the Milan Football & Cricket Club.
Franco Baresi, AC Milan’s honorary vice president, expressed his pride in the anniversary kit: “This jersey is a reflection of AC Milan’s soul – its passion, its history, and the vision for its future. This milestone represents a moment of celebration and unity for the entire Rossoneri family.”
Debut of the Anniversary Kit
The 125th Anniversary kit will make its on-pitch debut on December 8, when AC Milan’s women’s first team faces off against their rivals in the Derby. The men’s first team will then wear the new designs on December 15 during a match against Genoa at the San Siro. Both teams will sport jerseys featuring only numbers, a tribute to the vintage style of AC Milan’s earlier years.
Baresi also noted the significance of the anniversary: “The 125th Anniversary is a testament to the values and spirit that make AC Milan extraordinary, and this kit is a beautiful way to honor our journey while celebrating the unwavering bond with our fans.”
Availability
The AC Milan 125th Anniversary kit is now available for purchase both online and at official AC Milan stores. Fans can explore the collection and celebrate the club’s rich legacy through these timeless designs.
