VampyrRabbit Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 That's almost certainly the image that Joma used, and it's name is SKYLINE TURIN. Atalanta are probably the pre emminent club on their roster. This is a truly massive screw up and how that shirt got greenlit boggles the mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atalanta BC in Serie A released their annual Christmas jersey yesterday, featuring a skyline silhouette at the bottom. But now people on social media are claiming the skyline used is not from Bergamo, where the club is based, and instead from Turin. See the replies to this ... ... or check out my writeup on the mothership. A press release from Joma has been posted to Atalanta's website: Quote Concerning the news regarding the Bergamo “skyline” detail that is present on the jersey that Atalanta will wear on the occasion of the last home match before the Christmas break, Joma Sport intend to confirm and to underline that the “skyline” detail inserted as the main and distinctive element of the jersey, designed and produced by Joma for the special occasion of the 12th Edition of the Christmas Match, represents a profile of the City of Bergamo and is not referred to any other city. Since it is a stylisation, we are aware that some details may not refer to the public imagination, and we are aware of the fact that there are numerous representations of the skyline of Bergamo. Within this collaboration, having been Atalanta’s partner since the 2017/2018 season, we wanted to represent a specific point of view of the Upper City of Bergamo. With this jersey, which has been specifically produced for the 2021 Christmas Match and on which Atalanta’s colours blend with the skyline, we wanted to boost some elements of Bergamo, being aware, above all, of the fact that the jersey would receive particular attention because of the charitable purposes of the Christmas auction organized by the Club. It is with regret that we note that none of the media outlets, especially local ones, contacted either Joma or Atalanta to ask for information on the “skyline” detail inserted on the jersey, before starting a controversy on social media and spreading an inaccurate press review that made us feel deeply disappointed, considering the charitable purposes the initiative is based on.

VampyrRabbit Posted December 16, 2021 Share Posted December 16, 2021 It gets worse. Joma have actually made jerseys with a representation of the Bergamo skyline on them, when they took over from Nike and inherited the pattern that was printed on the jerseys.

officeglenn Posted December 18, 2021 Share Posted December 18, 2021 Turns out Atalanta didn't wear the skyline jerseys today after all. They also posted a statement on their website ... Quote The Club is sad to announce that, considering what happened in the last few days, today the team will wear the first kit to avoid any further exploitation and because of the importance of the match. ... but then seem to have pulled the Christmas jerseys from their web store.

So you really would need the team formation sheet to figure out who's who if you aren't familiar with who's out there. It's a different font as well.

aawagner011 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 Bayern will no longer wear the Club World Cup patch now that Chelsea are the new title holders. We will see less of the patch, however, since it is not allowed in Premier League play. Chelsea will be able to wear it in other competitions.

They did the same thing to Manchester United and Liverpool. Why is that? You'd think this would be something they'd WANT one of their clubs to show off.

Why waste space on something that doesn't earn them a cut?
