As the final piece to what has been one of the most distinguished kit collections in world football this season, Venezia FC have unveiled the 21/22 fourth shirt.
With gold details on Venetian red, the maglia bandiera is inspired by the iconic flag of the Republic of Venice, which is ever-present in the lagoon city, from Piazza San Marco to countless boats, balconies, and bacari. Adding a touch of Kappa’s classic style, the body is framed by black sleeves featuring the Italian kit maker’s famous repeating Omini logo in gold. The shirt is also adorned with the same special edition gold crest that appears on the 21/22 home shirt.
Beyond design, the club have taken the 21/22 fourth shirt’s relationship with Venetian art and culture a step further. Yesterday, Venezia FC announced a partnership with Save Venice, the leading American non-profit dedicated to preserving the artistic heritage of Venice for the world, through art conservation and educational initiatives. To activate the partnership, €5 from the sale of each shirt at shop.veneziafc.it will be donated to Save Venice.
Save Venice, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary this month, was founded in response to the floods of 1966, the worst in recorded history, and incorporated in 1971. Since then, Save Venice has worked to preserve, protect, and promote the art and culture of Venice and has funded the conservation of more than 700 projects comprising nearly 1,700 works of art. In 2015, Save Venice established the Rosand Library & Study Center in Venice, creating a nexus for the research of Venetian art, history, and conservation.

The campaign for the 21/22 fourth shirt was shot by Emanuele Ferrari, with locations including Palazzo Ducale and the Hotel Excelsior in Lido, which is renowned for its historic relationship with the Venice Film Festival.
The 21/22 fourth shirt will be available on shop.veneziafc.it from tomorrow, 29 October, at 16:30 CET.
