C.P. Company Becomes Bologna FC 1909’s Official Fashion Partner

C.P. Company, the iconic Italian fashion label founded by Massimo Osti in Bologna in 1971, has been unveiled as the official fashion partner of Bologna FC 1909. The partnership debuted with the Serie A club’s pre-match outfits during their UEFA Champions League clash against Borussia Dortmund at equally stylish Renato Dall’Ara Stadium.

The players donned a tailored selection of classic C.P. Company garments, including weather-resistant navy jackets and trousers adorned with the Bologna badge and the brand’s logo. A standout piece from the collection is a special-edition goggle jacket, featuring signature Bologna red lenses—a nod to both the club’s heritage.

The partnership pays homage to the deep bond between C.P. Company and Bologna, the birthplace of the brand and an inexhaustible source of inspiration, thanks to its cultural ferment, where art, music, sport and industry intersect in a unique context.

For the project launch, a short film highlights Bologna through its historic streets and places, including the Dall’Ara Stadium. Among the protagonists are Gianni Morandi, an artistic icon of the city and passionate Bologna fan, and his son Tredici Pietro, a rising talent in the Italian urban music scene.

“It is an honour for me to celebrate the bond between C.P. Company and Bologna, the city where I was born and raised and with which, both my family and I, have always felt a deep connection. And to do so through this partnership with Bologna FC is for me a full circle moment, the most authentic and natural way to celebrate the ties between C.P. Company, Bologna and football. I cannot hide the fact that seeing my favourite team and all the staff dressed in C.P. Company makes me feel truly proud!”

C.P. Company’s deep connection with football culture spans nearly five decades, having been embraced by terrace fashion enthusiasts for its innovative design and functionality. The brand’s roots in Bologna make this collaboration particularly significant, marking a homecoming for a label that has been woven into the global tapestry of football subculture.

This partnership with Bologna FC follows a recent collaboration with Manchester City, further solidifying C.P. Company’s ties to football and its enduring legacy in terrace culture. With Bologna enjoying their first Champions League campaign in 60 years, the union of the club and its hometown brand underscores the cultural synergy between football and fashion.

In Bologna, as in Manchester, football and C.P. Company garments are deeply rooted in the subcultures that bring life to stadiums, pubs, and other meeting places. In both cities, the iconic Goggle Jacket is worn as a symbol of identity, strengthening the authentic connection between football fans and the Italian brand. 

For Bologna’s fans and players alike, European nights have never looked so sharp.
