Measured flat, pit to pit and collar to hem. If you are between sizes, take the larger — a football shirt is meant to sit loose.

About this shirt

The Italy goalkeeper shirt from 2006. Sizes S-XXL.

Goalkeeper shirts were designed separately from the outfield kit and usually shared none of its colours, which is why they date differently and are collected on their own.

The home and home from the same season are listed separately, and we also hold the goalkeeper shirt from 2004.

Italy in 2006

The 2006 World Cup, won on penalties against France in Berlin — the final of Zidane’s red card, and Italy’s fourth World Cup.

Italy in the archive

Home, away and goalkeeper shirts, plus kids kits, women’s fit, training wear and jackets, with a retro run covering the tournament shirts of the eighties and nineties. Azzurri — the blue shirt with white shorts, worn since the 1930s and one of the few international kits whose colour has no connection to the national flag. Four World Cups and two European Championships. Our range spans 1982 to the current 2026 kits, reaching back to the 1982 World Cup win. Retro seasons make up around a third of what we hold. The range includes home and away shirts, goalkeeper, kids kits, women’s fit, training wear and jackets. Each listing states the year and whether the shirt is a standard or player-version cut.

Printing, delivery and returns

Name and number printing is free on this shirt. For a shirt of this season that means the lettering of the period, not a modern typeface — a 1996 England shirt takes the block of that summer, a late-nineties Serie A shirt the league numerals it was designed around. We hold period sets as well as current league and tournament fonts. Choose a squad player and the number is applied as issued, or send any name and number you want. Printing adds one to two working days before dispatch, and printed shirts cannot be returned unless faulty — if unsure of the size, order it plain and we print it afterwards for the same price. Full detail on the printing page.

Tracked as standard, everywhere — packed flat between card, never folded into a bag. Allow 7–14 days from order to delivery.

Service	Time	Cost
Standard tracked	7–14 days	£3.95
Orders over £30	7–14 days	Free

The same rate applies to every country: free over £30, otherwise £3.95, tracked, in the same 7–14 days. Orders outside the UK may attract import duty on arrival, which is the customer’s responsibility. Full tables on the shipping page.

30 days from delivery to change your mind — longer than the 14-day statutory minimum. Email hello@shirt-archive.com with your order number before posting anything back; send it unworn with tags attached, and the refund goes to the original payment method within five working days of arrival. If we sent the wrong thing, postage is on us both ways. Full policy on the returns page.

Common questions

Which season is this Italy goalkeeper shirt from?

This is the 2006 goalkeeper shirt. The season is stated on every listing and on the order confirmation, so what arrives is the season named here, not a current substitute.

What size should I order?

Sizes run S-XXL. Measure pit to pit on a shirt you own and compare it with the chart above — between sizes, take the larger.

Can I get a name and number printed on it?

Yes — free, applied before dispatch, which adds one to two working days. Printed shirts cannot be returned unless faulty, so if you are unsure of the size, order plain and we print it afterwards for the same price.

How quickly will it arrive?

Allow 7–14 days from order to delivery, everywhere. Standard tracked is £3.95, and orders over £30 ship free to every country. Everything is tracked, including international.

Do goalkeeper shirts size the same as outfield shirts?

Yes, the size bands are the same, but goalkeeper shirts are traditionally cut a touch longer in the sleeve and body. If you wear padding underneath, go one size up.

Will a retro shirt fit like a modern one?

No — shirts of this era were cut looser. A nineties Large sits closer to a modern Medium, which is why the flat measurements above matter more than the size on the label.
