Former AS Saint-Étienne goalkeeper Jérémie Janot turned back the clock this week by pulling on one of the most memorable goalkeeper kits in modern football history: his custom Spider-Man shirt. The 49-year-old wore the iconic design during a charity Match des légendes at the Stade Jean-Dauger in Bayonne, France, bringing back pure nostalgia for kit enthusiasts and French football supporters.
The match was organized by former keeper Pascal Olmeta's charity association, Un sourire, un espoir pour la vie, celebrating its 20th anniversary with a star-studded roster featuring legends such as Zinédine Zidane, Fabien Barthez, Laurent Blanc, and Dimitri Payet. Janot proudly stepped onto the pitch wearing the unmistakable red-and-blue webbed jersey, complete with classic ASSE branding and the retro Konica Minolta sponsor across the chest.
Janot originally debuted the outfit on May 21, 2005, during the 04-05 Ligue 1 season in a 2-0 home victory against FC Istres at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard. Produced in collaboration with then-kit manufacturer Duarig, the goalkeeper famously walked out wearing a full Spider-Man mask before taking his place between the posts.
