The Joma ACF Fiorentina home kit for the 2026/27 season pays tribute to the club's roots, Florence's artistic heritage and the Viola centenary through the concept “Art can be worn too"
Every club has a starting point and a history that makes it timeless. To mark Joma’s return as ACF Fiorentina’s kit sponsor in the year of the club's centenary, the two organizations have chosen to pay tribute to the club’s origins. The 2026/27 kit therefore celebrates the club’s history, its artistic heritage and original colors, and the passion of those who built the Viola dream.
Just like a painting, football can be a work of art too – and this was the idea behind the Spanish brand's development of the home shirt for the coming season, with the new design drawing inspiration from the ornamental frames of Renaissance artworks.
This frame concept – created to showcase the artwork – is now transferred onto the shirt, which becomes the focal point of the design. The details are incorporated into the fabric using an embossed technique, creating a dynamic, three-dimensional effect that instantly catches the eye – as can happen when you're standing before a work of art. This distinctive feature conveys art, belonging and prestige without straying from the club’s sporting essence.
In addition, the shirt incorporates several details celebrating the club’s 100th anniversary: the ‘1926–2026’ countdown on the front of the shirt and, inside the collar, the number 100 designed graphically to evoke the symbol of infinity. The ACF Fiorentina logo, which is heat-applied, is made of silicone and features several embossed lilies, making it recognizable to the touch.
Joma and ACF Fiorentina unveiled this reinterpretation of the club’s roots with the slogan “Art can be worn too” at an event held at Hotel St. Regis in Florence. The jersey does not only replicate the past: it frames it, updates it and brings it onto the pitch for a new shared chapter.
Technology applied to top-level football
Joma has incorporated avant-garde textile solutions in the production of the ACF Fiorentina home jersey for the 2026/27 season. This innovation aims to respond to the needs of the modern game with materials and technology that have been developed to enhance in-competition performance.
The fabric is made from 100% recycled polyester derived from PET plastic bottles – a lightweight, durable and high-quality material that combines sporting performance with a commitment to more sustainable production. This helps to reduce CO₂ emissions by 75% compared to traditional materials.
The shirt features Micro-Mesh System technology, strategically placed in high-sweat areas to ensure an efficient control of perspiration.
The ACF Fiorentina logo is made from silicone and applied with heat to reduce chaffing, without compromising the garment's elasticity.
The stitching is resistant and comfortable, which improves durability without limiting freedom of movement.
The ribbed trim on the collar and cuffs offers a comfortable fit and helps the kit to conform better to the player’s body.
This new jersey is the starting point for a new shared story between ACF Fiorentina and Joma – one that will accompany the team and the fans on every challenge in the coming season.
