Olympique de Marseille and Puma are back with another kit drop, but this one is far deeper than just that. ‘Marseille Monumentale’ is a love letter to the city, its symbols, its mythology, and the identity that binds the supporters to their club with the kind of devotion that only Marseille could produce. This one feels like home.
The shirt’s golden isn’t just for its sharp aesthetics, its lifted directly from the hue of Notre-Dame de la Garde – the monument that watches over Marseille from above, also known as la Bonne Mère. For generations, she has been the city’s spiritual anchor, a constant reference point for those who live there and those who leave but never forget. As the landmark prepares to reopen after months of construction, PUMA and OM are channelling that energy into fabric, creating something that reflects the city’s heartbeat.
But the finer details are where the magic lies. Look closer and the shirt becomes a map. A visual pilgrimage through the city’s defining locations. The Vieux-Port, Corniche Kennedy, Notre-Dame, Château d’If… each landmark is illustrated with detail, forming a tapestry of places that have shaped the identity of Marseille for centuries. These are symbols of memory, community, and pride, stitched for the people who understand what each location means to this city.
As clean as this shirt is, it will only be once. And it will be special. The kit will makes its one and only appearance against Toulouse on 29 November.
