Venezia have never been shy about leaning into their city’s mythology, but for 25/26 they’ve twisted the dial again—this time with NOCTA and the legendary Drake Ramberg in the room. The result is a Fourth Jersey that feels less like a kit and more like an artefact: a wearable flag for a club whose identity has always stretched far beyond the pitch.
Set to make its competitive debut under the lights of San Siro on 3 December, when Venezia face Inter in the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa, the Venezia 25/26 third shirt already reads like one of the standout drops of the season. Ramberg—whose fingerprints are on some of the most era-defining shirts of the ’90s—comes into the project with a cultural, symbolic, story-first approach that fits Venezia like a glove. His collaborations with Arsenal, Dortmund, and the Azzurri helped shape the visual language of an entire generation; here, he channels that heritage into a design that plays at the intersection of tradition, iconography, and contemporary expression.
The shirt pulls directly from Venice’s historic banner, landing in a deep red and gold palette that hits with instant gravitas. It’s a colorway that doesn’t just nod to the city’s past—it announces it. Subtle patternwork references ornamental armors and Venetian architectural motifs, adding layers to a design that rewards a closer look. Across the shoulders, the Winged Lion of Saint Mark rises with renewed presence, reimagined through Ramberg’s graphic sensibility and anchored in the mythology that has long shaped the Serenissima.
“This jersey marks a new contribution to creative kit design,” says Venezia FC Managing Director Tancredi Vitale. “It tells the story of Venezia through a contemporary and authentic language… This isn’t just a jersey—it’s an expression of our culture.”
Ramberg echoes the sentiment: “Venezia’s heritage extends far beyond the pitch. The club’s identity and sense of place have captured global attention. My goal was to honor that legacy while translating it into something timeless and instinctively connected to Venice.”
It’s that balance—between reverence and reinvention—that makes the Venezia x NOCTA Fourth Jersey feel so significant. Not just another limited-edition drop, but a continuation of a visual renaissance that has made Venezia one of the most culturally intriguing clubs in world football.
A flag reborn, a city reflected, and a club once again designing on its own terms.
