The Essence of Venice: 2022/23 Away Design Story

The 2022/23 Venezia FC Away Jersey by Kappa is more than just a football shirt; it’s a wearable piece of art, deeply inspired by the captivating city it represents. Moving away from the traditional black, this season’s away kit features a crisp white base, symbolizing the light and unique atmosphere of Venice. The design pays homage to the city’s rich history and architectural beauty, particularly the intricate details found in its palaces and churches.

Subtle yet striking details elevate the aesthetic. The collar and cuffs feature the iconic Arancioneroverde (orange, black, and green) colors of the club, framed by elegant gold trim. This gold detailing is a nod to the opulent gold leaf often used in Venetian art and architecture, adding a touch of luxury and historical depth to the kit. The overall look is clean, sophisticated, and instantly recognizable, perfectly capturing the unique blend of culture, history, and modern style that defines both Venezia FC and its home city.

Visual Elements & Craftsmanship

• Base Color: Clean and bright white, offering a fresh look.
• Accent Colors: Arancioneroverde stripes on collar and cuffs, bordered by luxurious gold trim.
• Club Crest: The modern Venezia FC crest is proudly embroidered on the chest, offering a classic, durable feel.
• Kappa Logo: The iconic Kappa Omini logo is also embroidered on the chest and repeated down the sleeves, a signature Kappa design element.
• Material Texture: The fabric features a subtle texture, enhancing the visual appeal and feel of the jersey.

Technology for the Fan: Comfort and Durability

While the player version utilizes Kappa’s cutting-edge Kombat Pro System, the Fan Version is engineered with the supporter in mind, prioritizing comfort, durability, and everyday wearability. This long sleeve jersey is made from 100% Polyester, a standard yet highly effective material for sports apparel.

The fabric incorporates standard moisture-wicking technology. This means it’s designed to draw sweat away from your skin, helping you stay drier and more comfortable whether you’re cheering from the stands, watching at home, or out and about. The long sleeves provide extra coverage and warmth, making it ideal for cooler match days or as a stylish layer during the off-season.

Key Comfort Features:

• Moisture Management: Helps keep you feeling fresh by wicking away sweat.
• Breathable Fabric: Allows air circulation to prevent overheating during moderate activity or warm moments.
• Soft Feel: The polyester fabric is soft against the skin for extended comfort.
• Durable Construction: Built to withstand regular wear and washing, maintaining its look season after season.

Fan Version vs. Player Version: Making the Right Choice

Understanding the difference between the Fan (or Stadium/Replica) version and the Player (or Authentic/Match) version is crucial for choosing the right jersey for your needs. This jersey is the official Fan Version, offering a distinct set of benefits compared to the Player version worn on the pitch.

Detailed Comparison:

• Fit:

  • Fan Version: Features a Standard or Regular Fit. This cut is more relaxed and comfortable for everyday wear, allowing for greater freedom of movement and a less restrictive feel. It’s designed to fit a wider range of body types comfortably.
  • Player Version: Utilizes a Slim or Athletic Fit, designed to be body-hugging and minimize excess fabric for peak athletic performance.

• Fabric & Technology:

  • Fan Version: Made from durable, comfortable 100% Polyester with standard moisture-wicking properties. The fabric is slightly thicker than the player version.
  • Player Version: Features advanced, lightweight performance fabrics (like Kappa’s Kombat Pro System) with enhanced breathability, faster drying times, and often a different texture or weave.

• Logos & Badges:

  • Fan Version: Club crest and brand logos are typically embroidered. This gives them a classic, textured look and feel, and is very durable.
  • Player Version: Logos and badges are usually heat-applied or heat-transferred. This makes them lighter, reduces friction against the skin, and is optimized for performance.

• Weight:

  • Fan Version: Generally slightly heavier due to the fabric and embroidered badges.
  • Player Version: Lighter, designed for minimal weight during intense activity.

• Breathability:

  • Fan Version: Offers good breathability for casual wear and moderate activity.
  • Player Version: Engineered for maximum airflow and heat dissipation during high-intensity performance.

• Price:

  • Fan Version: More affordable, offering excellent value for supporters.
  • Player Version: More expensive due to the advanced materials and technology.

• Recommended Use:

  • Fan Version: Ideal for watching games (live or on TV), casual everyday wear, showing team pride, and comfortable light activity. It’s also a popular choice for collectors due to its classic construction.
  • Player Version: Best suited for competitive play, intense training, or for those who prioritize the exact feel and performance characteristics of the shirts worn by professional athletes.

This official Fan Version is often referred to as a ‘Replica’ by fans, signifying that it replicates the look of the team’s kit but is built for comfort and durability rather than elite performance. It’s the perfect way to support Venezia FC with a comfortable, stylish, and long-lasting jersey.
