Italian kit manufacturer Erreà, partner of UEFA’s Kit Assistance Scheme, has produced a special series of 1950s-inspired shirts to pay tribute to 70 years of European football.
The shirts will be gifted to each of the ten national associations that benefit from the scheme – Andorra, Belarus, Cyprus, the Faroe Islands, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Malta and San Marino.
Combining elegance and innovation, the exclusive jerseys come in a neutral shade with a criss-cross lace-up neckline, featuring gold details including a specially created UEFA 70th anniversary symbol, finished with a national flag at the centre.
What is the UEFA Kit Assistance Scheme?
Launched in 2007, the Kit Assistance Scheme provides match and training kit for smaller national associations' men's and women's senior and Under-21 teams.
It enables associations that lack sufficient bargaining power with kit suppliers to play in top-calibre clothing featuring bespoke designs tailored to represent their own national identities.
Erreà has been the Kit Assistance Scheme partner since 2022.
