Reissue: AS Monaco 1959/60 Home Kit

In a tribute to the club’s rich footballing history, AS Monaco has collaborated with Kappa to release a limited-edition reissue of the iconic home jersey worn during their historic 1959/1960 season. This carefully crafted reproduction commemorates a pivotal year when the team secured its first major trophy, the Coupe de France, marking a significant milestone in the club’s illustrious journey.

The 1959/60 season represents a golden period for AS Monaco, culminating in a spectacular 4-2 victory over AS Saint-Etienne in the Coupe de France final. Under the leadership of coach Lucien Leduc and captained by Raymond Kaelbel, the team showcased extraordinary talent and determination. Players like Henri Alberto, Marcel Nowak, and Michel Hidalgo played crucial roles in this memorable triumph, etching their names in the club’s historical narrative.

The reissued AS Monaco kit meticulously preserves the original design, featuring the distinctive red and white vertical stripes that have become synonymous with the club’s early identity. Attention to detail is paramount, with the kit faithfully reproducing the wide stripes, white V-neck, and sleeve design that defined the 1959/60 aesthetic. This commitment to authenticity ensures that fans and collectors can experience a genuine piece of AS Monaco’s footballing heritage.

A unique aspect of this reissue is the special gold application of the Club crest and Kappa omini logo on the chest, elevating the shirt’s aesthetic and commemorative value. The design is particularly significant as it represents a fleeting moment in the club’s visual identity, shortly before the introduction of the now-iconic diagonal jersey that has become a staple of AS Monaco’s modern look.
