Maradona arrived in 1984 and turned a mid-table club into champions of Italy. The sky blue shirts of that period, made by local manufacturer NR (Nicola Raccuglia) and later Ennerre, are the most sought-after in the club’s history. Napoli won their first ever Scudetto in 1986/87, and in 1988/89 they lifted the UEFA Cup, beating Juventus, Bayern Munich and Stuttgart along the way.
The Mars shirt (1988 to 1991)
From 1988 the sky blue shirt carried the Mars sponsor across the chest, and it is that version, with Maradona’s number 10 on the back, that most fans picture when they think of classic Napoli. It remains one of the most iconic kits football has produced.
The modern Scudetto kits
Napoli’s long wait for a third title ended in 2022/23, and the shirts from that championship season have become instant classics in their own right, tying the club’s golden past to its present.
Which Napoli jersey should you buy?
For history, the Mars-sponsored Maradona-era shirt is the grail, best sourced through vintage specialists with a check on authenticity. For a modern classic, the 2022/23 Scudetto shirt is the one that captures the club’s return to the top.
