FOOTBALL MEMORIES

Zidane on the biggest stage

France's 2006 jersey will forever be associated with Zinedine Zidane, who led Les Bleus through a magical World Cup tournament. From the penalty kick in the final against Italy to the unforgettable farewell in the 110th minute – the jersey carries the story of both triumph and tragedy.

Stars in blue

In addition to Zidane, stars like Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Claude Makélélé, and Lilian Thuram shone during this period. They all wore the blue kit, which combined classic design with modern Climacool technology, marking a new era for Adidas and the FFF.

World Cup final and European Championship qualifiers

France reached the final of the World Cup in Germany, where Italy ultimately triumphed on penalties. The jersey then accompanied the team into the Euro 2008 qualifiers, where a new generation slowly began to take over. It was a transitional period, but still filled with big names and memorable matches.

The jersey's significance

This model stands as a strong reminder of France's status as a world power in the mid-00s and a tribute to one of football's most iconic farewells.

Do you remember the feeling when Zidane chipped the ball into the net against Buffon in the World Cup final? Then this jersey is for you.
