Sampdoria and Macron have unveiled a unique pair of shirts for the 2026-27 season, introducing the special ‘Samp’ and ‘Doria’ kits to celebrate the club’s 80th anniversary. Rather than being labelled as traditional away or third shirts, the designs pay tribute to the two historic clubs—Sampierdarenese and Andrea Doria—whose merger in 1946 created U.C. Sampdoria. The ‘Samp’ kit draws inspiration from the historic Sampierdarenese colours, featuring a clean white base with the iconic red and black horizontal chest bands, finished with a black V-neck collar and cuffs. Meanwhile, the ‘Doria’ kit honours Andrea Doria with a striking half-navy, half-white design, complemented by a classic polo collar and the famous St. George’s Cross shield beneath the main sponsor. Both shirts feature subtle embossed anniversary graphics across the fabric and include exclusive internal detailing celebrating the years 1946–2026, highlighting the club’s 80-year journey. Macron has also crafted the jerseys using Eco Fabric made from 100% recycled polyester, combining heritage-inspired styling with modern performance technology. The commemorative collection offers Sampdoria supporters two distinctive designs that honour the club’s origins while celebrating one of Italian football’s most iconic identities.
