Half a century on from the monumental moment S.S. Lazio Football Club scooped its first Scudetto, Mizuno and Lazio have unveiled an exclusive and purposeful 50th-anniversary jersey. Fans can anticipate the jubilee shirt to make an appearance at the home match against Empoli on May 12. This rich slice of football history unfolded when the final whistle, courtesy of referee Panzino, rang out on May 12th, 1974, making S.S. Lazio's victorious Scudetto journey a reality.
The heroic team, under the wing of none other than coaching mastermind Tommaso "The Maestro" Maestrelli, triumphed over renowned northern teams with impressive gravitas. The players, mostly undiscovered heroes before their phenomenal rise, etched an indelible mark into S.S. Lazio's history. As the clock ticks over to 50 years since that groundbreaking feat, the football club and its technical sponsor Mizuno are paying homage to this significant epoch with the commemorative shirt, a testament to a bygone era of glory.
The shirt's design subtly marries nostalgia with celebration, with the names of the entire squad, and Coach Tommaso Maestrelli, gently embossed in vertical stripes across the body. The skin-kissing white collar and sleeves are fashioned in a retro-ribbed style, lending a subtle nod to the past. Resting at the nape of the neck, the vibrant hues of the Italian flag commemorate the Scudetto victory. The golden banner on the front of the shirt, alongside the '73-74' insignia, serves as a proud nod to the club's victorious past. So fans, prepare to immerse yourselves in the celebration of a history that is once again dressed anew.
Dressed in a garb of exclusivity, ensnared in a luxury box met with premium embossed detailing, we find the arrival of the Special 50th Anniversary Kit—an honourable ode to the legacy of Lazio. The launch comes in tow with a capsule collection of leisure attire and accessories to complement its glory—encompassing a trendy track jacket, a t-shirt tailored to emphasize casual elegance, a cap, and a backpack brimming with style. Chosen to celebrate this renowned occasion, colours of pristine white and the distinct Lazio sky blue douse this striking kit.
