Parma Calcio 1913
Parma Calcio 1913 are one of Italy’s most distinctive clubs — known for their iconic white shirts with the black cross, golden era success in the 1990s and strong football identity in Emilia-Romagna. Parma shirts are a brilliant mystery box pull because they feel both classic and slightly left-field at the same time.
History
Founded in 1913, Parma grew into one of the most respected clubs in Italian football, particularly during the 1990s when they became a major force both domestically and in Europe. That era saw Parma compete with the very best sides in the country and build a reputation far bigger than their size might suggest.
The club enjoyed an unforgettable golden spell by winning the Coppa Italia, UEFA Cup, UEFA Super Cup and Cup Winners’ Cup, with legendary players helping shape one of the most memorable teams in Italian football history. After financial collapse and rebirth, Parma fought their way back up the divisions and remain one of Italy’s most admired football institutions.
Kit History & Colours
Parma are instantly recognisable for their famous white home shirts featuring the black cross, one of the cleanest and most elegant looks in European football. It is a design that feels timeless and gives Parma one of the strongest visual identities in Italy.
Alongside that iconic home shirt, Parma are also strongly associated with yellow and blue, the city’s colours, which often appear in away and alternate kits. This gives the club a really strong shirt identity across multiple eras and designs.
