The nod to the past in the design and logo, the tribute to a symbol of the city, combined with the modernity and technical sophistication of a fabric, Eco Fabric, which confirms the commitment of Macron e Udinese Calcio on the topics for the environmental protection. These are the ‘ingredients’ that make up the new ‘Home’ shirt’ unveiled by the Friuli-based club and set to be worn throughout the forthcoming Serie A season. A blend of past, present and future, starting with the historic ‘Zebretta’ logo and extending to the club’s commitments to innovation and sustainability, which propel it into the future.

The new ‘Home Kit’Udinese’s shirt has a crew neck, with the hem adorned with two black and green stripes – a colour combination also featured on the sleeve cuffs and the logo. The shirt is white with a wide black band down the centre, reminiscent of the kits worn in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Black also features on the shoulders and part of the sleeve. On the chest, in dark green silicone, the Macron the Hero, whilst on the left, also made of silicone, is the logo of the’Udinese Calcio used between the 1970s and 1980s, namely the emblem of a zebra looking straight ahead within a green frame. The forward-looking gaze symbolises a vision of the future, in contrast to the zebra used in the 1970s, which looked to the side. The words ’UC 1896‘ are printed in a tone-on-tone design on the right sleeve.

The inside of the back neck is personalised with the club’s colours, crest and the words “ITALY’S FIRST ‘BIANCONERI’” alongside the Macron logo and the text Designed in Bologna, to certify and highlight how each garment is conceived, designed and developed in the headquarters of the Emilia-based brand. The club’s motto is embroidered in white on the outer back of the collar: “Passion is our Strength”. Also on the back of the shirt is a symbol that the people of Udine are particularly fond of. At the bottom, within the black band, there is a tone-on-tone sublimation print of the Archangel Gabriel, commonly known as ‘the Angel of the Castle’, in reference to the sculpture situated on the bell tower of the church of Santa Maria di Castello, which also evokes the location of the unveiling.

The new home kit is completed by the shorts, which are available either in white with black side stripes or in black with white stripes. There are also two options for the socks: white with black and green horizontal stripes, or black with white and green stripes. The shirt has a Slim fit and the main fabric used is Eco-Piola featuring inserts made of Eco Mesh which ensure the garment is lightweight and perfectly breathable. 

Udinese Calcio’s new ‘Home’ kit is available to buy at the Macron Sports Hub at the Udinese Arena and online at the dedicated space on macron.com where you can find the full range of clothing produced by Macron for the Friuli-based club.
