Enrico Chiesa's Player Issued jersey: Siena's first kit 2004/05, centenary season

The official first kit of A.C. Siena for the 2004/2005 season in its Player Issued version is a rare relic and of extraordinary appeal from vintage Italian football. The Lotto home kit stands out for its famous black and white checkerboard design — a historical identifying mark of the Sienese club — enriched in this edition by two exclusive elements that make it a unique piece: the double club crest on the chest, with the celebratory centenary crest "Robur 1904 – 100 anni" applied over the official A.C. Siena one, and the lettering ROBUR 1904 embroidered on the back of the collar. The kit is produced by Lotto with the wording "Italian Sport Design" and bears the Made in Italy label, confirming the artisanal quality manufacturing of the best Italian sports tradition. On the chest stands the vertical lettering of the sponsor Monte Paschi — Banca dal 1472 — in its characteristic vertical arrangement, elegantly integrated into the checkerboard design. On the right sleeve is applied the official patch of the Lega Calcio Serie A TIM in the version with the ball used until the 2009/10 season. The jersey is long-sleeved, size XL, in Excellent condition with perfectly intact fabric and vivid colors despite the twenty years since its production. The back bears the name CHIESA and the number 10.

The player: Enrico Chiesa

Enrico Chiesa (Genoa, December 29, 1970) is one of the most complete and prolific Italian strikers of his generation. Having grown up at Sampdoria, he built a high-level career with Cremonese, Sampdoria, Parma, Fiorentina, and Lazio before joining Siena in the summer of 2003. In black and white, he experienced five extraordinary seasons, becoming the absolute symbol of a provincial club capable of holding its own against the big Serie A teams for almost a decade. In the 2004/2005 season — that of the Robur 1904 centenary, the season of this jersey — Enrico Chiesa confirmed himself as the top scorer for the black and white team with 11 goals in the league, decisively contributing to a hard-fought survival achieved on the last day. With the number 10 on his back and the moral captain's armband, he represented the pride of an entire city. Fabio Capello called him "a cross between Gigi Riva and Paolo Rossi." In total, with Siena, he made 134 appearances and scored 34 goals in Serie A, entering the club's history. Father of Federico Chiesa — European Champion with the Italian national team in 2021 — Enrico remains one of the most respected names in Italian football, today responsible for the FIGC territorial center in Florence. Owning his number 10 Siena jersey is a doubly precious piece: the relic of a great striker and the historical document of one of the most beautiful fairy tales in contemporary Italian football.

What is a vintage Player Issued jersey?

A Player Issued jersey is a kit prepared specifically for a certain player but not necessarily worn in an official match. It differs from the commercial version due to a series of precise technical characteristics: personalization with the player's name and number, match-grade cut and materials, exclusive technical details reserved for team supply. When the jersey is over twenty years old, it falls into the Vintage category, acquiring additional collectible value linked to its rarity, history, and difficulty of finding on the market. The combination of provenance from team supply, historic centenary season, and iconic player makes this item a highly valuable piece for any collection.
