Lazio Jersey 1982-83
It was innovative, aesthetically wonderful and classy. It has become one of the most iconic shirts in Italian football history. It is known as the "maglia bandiera" (the flag shirt).
The technical sponsor was Ennerre while the main sponsor was Seleco.
The main novelty was the stylized dark blue eagle spanning all along the chest and onto the sleeves. The shirt was divided in two colours, the top half was white while the bottom half was light blue. The v-neck collar was light blue, the shorts either white or light blue and the socks white.
