Real Madrid Jerseys

The Real Madrid, Europe's most successful club

No club comes close to Real in European competitions. With fifteen Champions League titles, they boast more than double that of their closest rival, and this dominance has spanned three different eras: the first five consecutive cups in the 1950s, the Ninth title around the turn of the 2000s, and then the series won in the last decade.

The national record follows the same pattern, with over thirty-five titles of champion of Spain. Di Stéfano, Puskás, Zidane, Ronaldo, Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema, Modrić: the list of players who have played for the club reads like a summary of football history.

The Santiago Bernabéu, with over eighty thousand seats, has been completely transformed in recent years. It has become a covered and adaptable stadium, one of the most modern in Europe.

The all-white of the Merengues

Real plays in white from head to toe, a choice made from the very beginning of the club and never questioned. It's this kit that gives them their two nicknames, the Merengues and the White House.

The simplicity of the home jersey is its commercial strength: it's a garment that can be worn outside of any match context and is one of the best-selling football shirts in the world each season.

The crown of the crest, inherited from the royal title granted to the club, completes the visual identity. It returns in subtle print on part of the collections.

Home, away, third: which one to choose?

The home jersey is the white of the Bernabéu, and by far the most purchased. It's also the one that ages the best, as its base doesn't change.

The away jersey takes a different direction each year, often dark or in a bold colour. It's the choice of those who already have the home kit, and it tends to get less dirty.

The third takes the most liberties in design and is released in smaller quantities. It's the one that becomes sought after once it sells out.

Supporter version or player version?

The supporter version has a straight, looser cut, made from breathable but flexible material. It's suitable for both the stadium and the street, and it's the default choice if you're unsure.

The player version, known as authentic, mimics the on-field kit: it has a fitted cut, technical fabric, and different finishes. It is noticeably tighter, to the point that it's common to go up a size, sometimes even two.

What size of Real Madrid shirt should I get?

In the supporter version, your usual t-shirt size generally works in most cases. On a white shirt, the looser cut has an added advantage: it hides what's worn underneath better.

In the player version, expect to go up at least one size, as these shirts are designed to be fitted.

For children, the junior sizes follow age and height in centimetres rather than adult sizes.

Printing: name, number, and badges

The official Liga printing has its own typography, different from that used in the Champions League. It's a detail that knowledgeable supporters look for, distinguishing an official customization from an approximation.

A personalized shirt can no longer be exchanged, so check the size before ordering. And a player's name is a long-term commitment, which leads many buyers towards a blank shirt or a number that has become legendary at the club.

Other clubs in Liga

The Spanish league isn't just about Madrid, and each club has its own page:

• The FC Barcelona, the rival of the Clásico, the most watched fixture in club football.
• The Atlético Madrid, the neighbour of the Madrid derby.
• The Athletic Bilbao and the Real Sociedad, the two major Basque clubs.
• The Real Betis, FC Valencia, Villarreal, Getafe, and Deportivo La Corogne complete the selection.

The other clubs page covers the rest of the league, and the Liga page brings them together all.

Where to find a cheaper Real Madrid shirt

The promotions in the supporters' shop gather the current discounted kits, while the new arrivals showcase the latest collections.

The clearance and good deals are available year-round for end-of-line items. The sales occur during designated periods.

The Black Friday kicks off the series of big events, followed by the end-of-year holidays, winter sales, and the spring French Days. The best time remains when the next collection arrives, as the previous one goes on clearance.

Frequently asked questions

Why does the Real Madrid play entirely in white?

The all-white look was chosen right from the club's founding and has never been questioned. It gives Real their two nicknames, the Merengues and the White House.

What's the difference between the supporter shirt and the player shirt?

The supporter shirt has a straight cut and is comfortable, designed for everyday wear. The player shirt replicates the on-field version, with a fitted cut and more technical fabric, thus being significantly tighter.

Should I go up a size?

In the supporter version, your usual size works fine. In the player version, go up at least one size minimum, sometimes two if you don’t want a tight-fitting shirt.

Is the Liga printing the same as in the Champions League?

No, each competition has its own typography and colours. The choice is made at the time of ordering, depending on the competition you want on the shirt.
