AC Milan's number 3, a whole career

The AC Milan shirts run from 1998-2000 through to 2009-10, all #3, spanning home, fourth and third kits across seven separate seasons: 1998-00, 1999-2000, 2000-02, 2001-02, 2004-05, 2007-08 and 2009-10. It's an unusually deep run for a single number, a reflection of how long Maldini stayed at one club in one shirt, with sizes here ranging from S to XL and home, fourth and third kit variations all represented.

The Solo Per Te farewell shirt

The 2009-10 home shirt is printed "Solo Per Te", a message Milan used for Maldini's final season with the club, alongside a standard 2009-10 home shirt without the print. Both are the same #3 kit, in sizes M and XL, just marking his last year differently. It's a rare chance to see how a club marks a departure without changing the actual shirt template.

Italy in Diadora and Nike

The Italy shirts bookend the Milan run: a 1994 home shirt with #5, made by Diadora, and a 1997-98 away shirt with #3, made by Nike, matching the number he wore for most of his club career. Diadora and Nike each appear once here, a contrast to the Adidas run that dominates the rest of the collection. Between Milan and Italy, this collection covers the better part of two decades, from the nineties through to the 2000s, with every shirt an original from its own season, hand-checked and photographed individually, and measured pit to pit and top to bottom against the label of the period.
