Venezia FC and NOCTA Unveil 25/26 Fourth Shirt Designed by Drake Ramberg

Venezia FC continues its tradition of merging club identity with cultural storytelling, this time collaborating with NOCTA and legendary designer Drake Ramberg for the 25/26 Fourth Jersey. The shirt draws heavily from Venetian iconography and is set to make its competitive debut in the Coppa Italia.

Design and Inspiration

The fourth shirt uses a deep red and gold palette taken directly from Venice’s historic banner. Subtle patternwork references ornamental armors and Venetian architectural motifs. Across the shoulders, the Winged Lion of Saint Mark is reimagined through Ramberg’s graphic sensibility, rooted in the mythology of the Serenissima.

Ramberg, known for era‑defining shirts of the 1990s for Arsenal, Dortmund, and the Italian national team, brings a story‑first approach to the project.

Debut and Significance

The jersey will make its competitive debut under the lights of San Siro on 3 December, when Venezia face Inter in the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa. It is described as a “wearable flag” for a club whose identity extends beyond the pitch.

Voices Behind the Shirt

Venezia FC Managing Director Tancredi Vitale said: “This jersey marks a new contribution to creative kit design. 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.”

Drake Ramberg echoed 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.”
