Giorgio Venturin's Player Issued Jersey: An Authentic Granata Football Relic

The first official Torino FC jersey for the 2001/2002 season in its Player Issued version is one of those rare pieces that time transforms into irreplaceable relics. Made in Italy by Asics with the exclusive finishes and technical details of the team's kit supply, this jersey represents the best of Italian football production of the era. The intense granata color, the classic white collar, and the shiny 100% Made in Italy polyester fabric make it immediately recognizable as an icon of Italian football of the 2000s. This version is long-sleeved — an additional element of specificity and rarity for the most discerning collectors. On the front, the sponsor Conto Arancio is prominently displayed with the Asics logo and the historic Torino FC crest, while on the back, the VENTURIN nameset with Giorgio Venturin's number 4 is accompanied by the Lega Calcio patch on the right sleeve. As an item produced over twenty years ago, this Player Issued piece has acquired significant collector's value over time. Excellent condition, size XL.

The Player: Giorgio Venturin

Giorgio Venturin (Venice, March 8, 1966) is an Italian midfielder who built a solid and respected career in professional Italian football between the 1980s and early 2000s. Gifted with good technique and great tactical intelligence, he wore the Torino jersey during one of the most significant phases of his career, contributing professionally and dedicatedly to the Granata club's ambitions in Serie A. The number 4 he wore on his back symbolized his role as a key midfielder in the team. A representative figure of Italian football of that generation, his original Player Issued jersey is now a collector's item of undeniable historical value for every Torino and 2000s Italian football enthusiast.

What is a 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 by a series of precise technical characteristics: professional finishes, match cut and materials, exclusive technical details reserved for the team's kit supply. It is hierarchically superior to the store version and inferior only to the Match Worn. When a Player Issued jersey has been produced for over twenty years, like this 2001/02 example, its collector's value grows exponentially due to the combination of rarity, authenticity, and sporting history it carries — qualities that are difficult to replicate in the contemporary market.
