The best commemorative kits in football history The shirts of those who have decided to celebrate a special occasion

The celebratory jerseys have now become cult pieces, must-haves that must be had at all costs even if you don't fall into the collectors category. The special birthdays of the oldest football clubs are anniversaries that are prepared well in advance, to take full advantage of the marketing of the kit. Most of the time it is a single kit, a uniform that is used only once before being framed and displayed in the museums of the most successful companies. Other times, however, it is a shirt that accompanies the team for an entire season and becomes the symbol of a vintage. Let's find out what are the best strategies and results of the clubs that have invested in campaigns to celebrate special events.
