Should This Be Banned? Serie A Teams Wear Away and Third Kits at Home
If you watched the Serie A in recent days, you surely have noticed an odd development - many teams have not been wearing their home kits at home. Thanks to @thekitsbaia for the heads-up.
Serie A Teams Disrespect Tradition by Wearing Away & Third Kits at Home
In the first matches of the 2023-2024 season, Serie A teams have been flaunting tradition by wearing their away and third kits at home.
It happened alone three times that Serie A teams wore away/third kits last weekend, and just yesterday, Juventus wore their third kit at home vs Lecce (who also wore their away kit).
In England, it seems unthinkable for teams like Arsenal and Man Utd to wear away kits at home.
Marketing is surely the driving force behind this trend, with teams promoting their away and third kits that way. It's even not uncommon to see both teams donning their away kits in a single match.
Napoli vs Lazio - 2 September 2023
In the third matchday of the Serie A between Napoli and Lazio, Napoli wore their brand-new black/gold third kit, while Lazio opted for the white away kit.
Sassuolo vs Juventus - 23 September 2023 - Third vs Home
In their 4-2 victory against Juventus, Sassuolo decided to wear their fluo-yellow third kit that was just launched.
AC Milan vs Verona - 23 September 2023 - Third vs Home
On the same day, Milan decided to give to wear their pinkish third kit at San Siro.
Udinese vs Fiorentina - 24 September 2023 - Third vs Away
Udinese vs Fiorentina saw another matchup in which both teams wore alternative shirts. Udinese "had" to promote their new third kit, while Fiorentina opted to wear their white away kit.
Juventus vs Lecce - 26 September 2023 - Third vs Away
The latest incident just happened yesterday, when Juventus opted to wear their Adidas third kit at home vs Lecce. Lecce themselves wore their white away kit, resulting in yet another "alternative" kit matchup.
It happened three times last weekend alone
This move has sparked a debate among football fans, with some arguing that it's disrespectful to tradition. Imagine Manchester United or Arsenal wearing their away or third kit at home.

Venezia and Rapid Wien Release Special Collaborative Kit
Venezia FC and SK Rapid have unveiled two special limited-edition jerseys to celebrate the 26th anniversary of the historic friendship between their supporters and clubs. The twinning, which officially traces back to January 15, 2000, was commemorated on the pitch during an international friendly at the Stadio Pier Luigi Penzo, with both sides wearing the bespoke designs.
The collaboration includes two distinct shirts designed in close cooperation with the fan groups. The black Unione jersey features an all-over diamond jacquard pattern, complemented by Venezia's orange and green checkerboard on the right shoulder and Rapid's green and white stripes on the left. The white Unione shirt presents a split look blending green and orange accents with line illustrations of iconic architectural landmarks from both Venice and Vienna, including the Doge's Palace and St. Stephen's Cathedral. Both designs place the lion of Saint Mark and the Austrian eagle crests side by side above the date 15.01.2000.
During the friendly match on the Venetian lagoon, the hosts wore the black kit while Rapid took to the pitch in the white version, with Venezia edging a 1-0 victory. The limited-edition jerseys have been made available to supporters through Venezia's official online store and physical club shops.
Unique Jordan PSG 26-27 Third Goalkeeper Kit Leaked - Inspired by Bernard Lama
The striking new goalkeeper jersey from the upcoming Paris Saint-Germain x Jordan third collection has leaked courtesy of PSG insider @lasource75006. Scheduled to drop in the coming weeks alongside the club's 26-27 third player kit, the long-sleeve piece pays direct homage to iconic former Paris Saint-Germain shot-stopper Bernard Lama.
The Jordan PSG 26-27 third goalkeeper shirt draws inspiration from the distinctive Nike template worn by Lama during the 1997-98 season. It features a vibrant red base with sharp black vertical stripes tapering upward from the lower hem. The long sleeves are adorned with dynamic graphic streaks in shades of purple, blue, and black, perfectly channeling the flamboyant goalkeeper aesthetics of the late 1990s.
Gold detailing rounds off the design, highlighted by a centrally aligned Jordan Jumpman sitting above a monochrome Paris Saint-Germain crest and the Qatar Airways chest sponsor.
