SSC Napoli 2007-2008 Home Shirt - Lavezzi No.7 (XL)

⚠️ Read this before you buy

This shirt is 18 years old and it has been lived in. Two things to know, both photographed: light wear on the Lete sponsor print (photo 6, faint gaps in the red and the lettering) and a small dark mark on the back, below the collar (photo 7). That is why it is graded 8.5 and not 10.

📐 Flat measurements

Lay flat a shirt that fits you well, measure it the same way and compare. 2007 cuts are noticeably wider than today's.

The azzurro has stayed bright, with no fading and no underarm halos — remarkable for a 2007 shirt. The white trims on the flanks, sleeves and hem are all intact, with no yellowing. The white LAVEZZI No.7 nameset is crisp, the “SSC NAPOLI” marking below the collar is clean and the Lega Calcio Serie A patch on the sleeve is spotless. Notched crew collar undistorted, seams sound. The two reservations: the Lete sponsor wear (photo 6) and the small mark on the back (photo 7).

📖 Naples come back up, and the Pocho arrives

This is the shirt of a club that came a long way back. Three years earlier Naples were playing in the third division after going bankrupt. In 2007 they return to the top flight.

⬆️ 2007-2008 — back in Serie A. After the 2004 bankruptcy and the drop to Serie C1, Naples string together promotions and return to the first division. The San Paolo fills up again.

🇦🇷 Lavezzi, the first idol of the revival. The Argentine arrives that summer and immediately becomes the crowd's favourite. He would wear the Naples number 7 for five seasons before joining PSG.

🏟️ Eighth place for a promoted side. Naples finish in the top half in their first season back — the starting point of the rebuild that would lead to the Champions League four years later.

👕 The last Diadora — pure azzurro, curved white trims, notched collar: the Italian brand signed off with one of its final Naples kits before handing over. A transitional shirt, and sought after for exactly that.
