Udinese Calcio and Macron have unveiled the club’s new Home Kit, sporting the classic black and white stripes and a striking design which pays tribute to the historic 1997/98 season.
This new home kit reaffirms the club’s strong commitment to the environment and sustainability. Udinese and Macron have shared their eco-friendly, green vision for three seasons now, producing Eco-Fabric matchday kits made of 100% PET recycled polyester. An Udinese kit wouldn’t be complete without drawing inspiration from the city of Udine, emphasising the great sense of belonging between the club and its people – one of the founding values of the club. The Angel of Udine Castle, an iconic symbol of the city, is embossed on the shirt numbers.
The new Home Kit is characterised by black and white stripes, with a thicker central band and cut-out section in the chest area. The design closely resembles that of the 1997/98 season, when the club reached a historic third place in the league behind Juventus and Inter, when Oliver Bierhoff was Serie A’s top scorer with 27 goals. Past and present are brought together in a modern design, featuring a new woven, Jacquard fabric. The knitted V-neck collar is adorned on the back inside edge with the Udinese Calcio logo and the phrase I PRIMI BIANCONERI D’ITALIA (‘Italy’s original Bianconeri’). Two silicone badges are found on the chest area, with the Macron Hero logo on the right and the club crest on the left. Another club motto, La Passione è la nostra Forza (‘Passion is our Strength’), decorates the top of the reverse side of the shirt in white.
The home kit is finished off with black shorts and socks. The shorts include a white drawstring and side stripes, while the socks feature two central white stripes of differing widths, Macron Hero on the ankle and
U.C. 1896 on the back. The kit comes in a Slim Fit, made principally of Eco-Jacquard Checked fabric with Eco Mesh inserts to offer lightweight, breathable material.
The new Home Kit and other garments in the Macron-Udinese Calcio collection can be purchased from the Dacia Arena Macron Store, other Macron Stores, authorised Macron sellers or online at store.udinese.it/en/home.html and www.macron.com/en.
