AC Milan's 1999/2000 Third Kit: The Rossoneri's Centenary in Store Version

AC Milan's third kit for the 1999/2000 season, designed by Adidas, celebrates a special moment in the Rossoneri club's history: the centenary of its founding in 1899, commemorated by the official "100 MILAN 1899-1999" patch on the left sleeve. The navy blue base is embellished with white panels on the sides and sleeves, with red trim on the collar, cuffs, and hem, while the Tricolore Scudetto — worn by virtue of being the 1998/1999 Italian Champion — and the Opel sponsor appear on the chest. The "Milan A.C." text is embroidered on the collar, and the Lega Calcio patch is on the right sleeve. This Store specimen, size XL, features the nameset SHEVCHENKO number 7 on the back. The internal labels confirm Adidas & Salomon AG production in Italy, with the "Adidas Official Replica" tag. As a piece almost twenty-seven years old, it shows natural signs of vintage preservation.

The Player: Andriy Shevchenko

Andriy Shevchenko (Dvirkivshchyna, September 29, 1976) is one of the greatest strikers in European football history and the strongest Ukrainian footballer ever. Developed at Dynamo Kyiv, where he won five consecutive national titles, he moved to AC Milan in the summer of 1999 for a record fee, immediately becoming a star in the Italian championship. In his first season with the Rossoneri, the one this shirt is from, he became Serie A's top scorer with 24 goals, an extraordinary achievement for a debutant. With Milan, he won a Scudetto, the Champions League in 2003 — scoring the decisive penalty in the final against Juventus — and the Ballon d'Or in 2004, crowning memorable years in the number 7 shirt. This Store specimen documents the beginning of his legendary Italian adventure, in one of the club's most celebrated seasons, that of the Rossoneri's centenary.

What is an original Store shirt?

A Store shirt is the official commercial version produced by the club's technical sponsor and intended for sale in official stores, distinct from the Player Issued and Match Worn versions reserved for team supply. It is, however, a hundred percent original item, produced with the same materials, logos, and quality standards of the club and the technical sponsor — as confirmed in this specimen by the internally sewn "Adidas Official Replica" label. In this case, the nameset with name and number applied to the back is a subsequent replica application, reproduced by an external supplier and not an official supply, while the shirt remains an official Store original in all respects. When a Store shirt is over twenty years old, as in this case, it becomes a vintage collector's item itself, capable of telling a precise era of the club and a player through the nameset, logos, and official patches of the time.
