adidas and AS Roma Unite to Celebrate the Rich Legacy of The Giallorossi with a Nostalgic Collection Inspired by 1993.
adidas, a name synonymous with football innovation and style, has joined forces with AS Roma, one of European football’s most historic clubs, to launch the Originals Bring Back collection. This exclusive drop celebrates the vibrant heritage of the Giallorossi and draws inspiration from the iconic 1993 season, a pivotal moment in the club’s history that also marked the debut of club legend Francesco Totti.
The centrepiece of the five-piece collection is the meticulously recreated 1993 match jersey, a piece of history that captures the essence of the original. Featuring the signature adidas Trefoil logo, Piero Gratton’s beloved “Lupetto” wolf emblem, and the classic Barilla sponsorship, this jersey is a nod to an unforgettable era of football. The collection also includes a retro-inspired track jacket, a full tracksuit in Roma’s signature red and yellow stripes, and a pair of Gazelle sneakers tailored for Roma fans. The sneakers echo the jersey’s vibrant shades and proudly showcase the iconic “Lupetto” logo on the heel.
adidas and AS Roma have taken great care to honour the club’s history while blending it with adidas’ renowned cultural wear tradition. The result is a collection that embodies the spirit of the early 90s while resonating with modern football and streetwear enthusiasts alike.
To mark the launch, adidas released a short film titled Bring Back to Rome ’93, which follows two young Roma fans on a nostalgic journey through a vintage shop in search of a rare piece of club history. Their discovery of the 1993 adidas AS Roma jersey, tucked away in a carefully guarded box, symbolises the timeless connection between the club’s storied past and its devoted supporters.
AS Roma’s iconic colours and rich legacy are central to this collaboration. Since its founding in 1927, the club has embodied the spirit of Rome, winning three Italian championships, nine Coppa Italia titles, and the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League trophy in 2022. The 1993 season stands as a significant chapter, not only as a moment of football brilliance but also as the year Francesco Totti, who would go on to make a record 786 appearances for the club over 25 seasons, began his legendary career.
adidas, a global leader in football, continues to innovate at the crossroads of sport and culture. As the official supplier for premier tournaments like the FIFA World Cup and UEFA Champions League, as well as sponsor of elite clubs and players, adidas’ partnership with AS Roma reflects its enduring commitment to football heritage.
The Originals Bring Back AS Roma collection is now available at AS Roma Stores, store.asroma.com, adidas stores, the adidas app, adidas.com, and at official retail partner JD.
By bridging the past with the present, adidas and AS Roma have delivered more than a collection – they’ve offered fans a chance to wear a piece of history while celebrating the vibrant culture of the Giallorossi.
