Valencia CF Shirts

Valencia CF, the club of Mestalla

Valencia has long been the third hub of Spanish football, capable of challenging Madrid and Barcelona. The club boasts six titles of champion of Spain and a series of Copa del Rey trophies, peaking in the early 2000s with two consecutive Champions League finals, followed by two national titles snatched from the two giants.

This team, built around players like Cañizares, Ayala, Baraja and Aimar, remains the reference point for the club's supporters.

Mestalla, with its steep stands close to the pitch, is one of the most impressive stadiums in Spain for spectators. Its atmosphere is due as much to its architecture as to its crowd.

The white and the bat

Valencia CF's home shirt is white, with black or orange details depending on the collections. It’s a simple shirt, where the crest carries the essence of the visual identity.

The bat that sits above it comes from the city’s coat of arms and is one of the most recognisable emblems in Spanish football. The collections regularly feature it as a pattern or print.

Home or away: which one to choose?

The home shirt is the white of Mestalla, the one most supporters buy and which remains identifiable for a long time after.

The away shirt starts with a different base each year, often orange or dark colours. It’s the one that’s easiest to wear every day and the simplest to maintain.

Supporter version or player version?

The supporter version has a straight, looser cut, made from breathable yet soft material. It’s the one worn at the stadium and on the street, and is the default choice if you’re unsure.

The player version, known as authentic, reflects the on-pitch kit: a close-fitting cut, technical fabric, and different finishes. It is noticeably more fitted, to the extent that it's common to take a size up.

What size Valencia shirt to get?

In the supporter version, your usual t-shirt size generally fits in most cases. On a white shirt, the loose cut has an additional advantage: it shows less of what’s worn underneath.

In the player version, you should consider going up at least one size, as these shirts are fitted close to the body.

For children, junior sizing follows 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 European competitions. This distinguishes an official personalization from an approximation.

A personalised shirt is no longer exchangeable, so size needs to be checked before ordering. And a player's name is a long-term commitment, which leads some supporters to opt for a blank shirt.

Other Liga clubs

The Spanish league isn’t just about the two biggest budgets, and every club has its place:

• The Real Madrid and the FC Barcelona, the two clubs of the Clásico.
• The Atlético Madrid, the third giant of the league.
• The Athletic Bilbao and the Real Sociedad, the two great Basque clubs.
• The Real Betis, Villarreal, a regional neighbour, Getafe, and the Deportivo La Corogne complete the selection.

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

Where to find a Valencia shirt for less

The promotions in the supporter shop gather the current discounted kits, while the new arrivals showcase the collections that have just landed.

The clearance and good deals run all year round on end-of-line items. The sales come during the legal periods.

The Black Friday kicks off the series of highlights, ahead of the end-of-year festivities, winter sales, and the French Days in spring. The best time is still when the next collection arrives, as the previous one transitions to end-of-line.

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