Venezia FC and Drake’s Nocta Team up on a Brand New Home Jersey
info@hypebae.com (Hypebae) Wed, 23 Jul 2025 HypebaeIf you haven't already caught the football bug from the gripping Women's Euros, then this collaboration will definitely do it for you. For the second year, Venezia FC and NOCTA are collaborating to bring you the new 25/26 Home Jersey.
NOCTA, a sports apparel brand by Drake in partnership with Nike, seamlessly blends minimalism with functional urban aesthetics. Together with professional football club Venezia FC, the collaboration offers an authentic connection between football and culture. The Home Jersey, which will also be worn by the Women's First Team, is the first expression of a broader narrative that will unfold throughout the season and embodies their "Home Ground" concept. The all-black design showcases Venice's architecture, culture, beauty and passion for sport and fashion.
The campaign focuses on Venezia FC's commitment to its fans and positioning at the forefront of contemporary culture. Shot on 35mm film by photographer Duncan Loudon, the campaign explores the idea of belonging, and features a local cast, including painter-poet Solange Smith, renowned contemporary artist Fabrizio Plessi and emerging musical talent Space Idol. The result is an intergenerational collective that captures Venice not as the typical postcard, but as a living, breathing contemporary place with global relevance.
The Home Jersey, designed by Diego Moscosoni, is inspired by 15th-century cartography and includes details such as the iconic St. Mark’s Basilica star on the back of the neck and the use of silver as a design accent. Tancredi Vitale, Managing Director of Venezia FC, says, "This partnership reflects exactly what we want Venezia FC to represent: a Club rooted in tradition, but unafraid to innovate and lead." Co-Founder of NOCTA Matte Babel adds, "It’s not about slapping a logo on a jersey, it’s about crafting something that carries the unmistakable character of Venice and the raw, global energy of NOCTA."
The Home Jersey is now available online and at Venezia FC official stores, but will make its official on-pitch debut at Venezia FC's Coppa Italia Frecciarossa fixture against Mantova on August 16th.
