The iconic Rooster returns on the Genoa CFC Away jersey
The retro logo is the protagonist of the Away uniforms by Kappa

After the first classic quarter jersey, today Kappa and Genoa CFC present the new Away jersey, made to honor the traditions of the oldest football club in Italy, as well as one of the symbols to which, in the collective imagination, the Genoese community is most attached. The jersey stands out for its elegant design: it is mainly white, with blue and red details along the shoulders and sides. The Kappa Kombat template features a buttonless polo collar bordered by the club's two social colors. On the back of the collar, the writing that distinguishes the long history of the Genoa club is visible: "FROM THE BEGINNING, FOREVER".
The dominant theme is the famous "Gallinaccio", which returns to appear on an official Genoa CFC uniform after over 40 years. This emblem, one of the most popular in the history of the club, was used on uniforms in the early 1980s and has since been adopted by supporters who proudly display it on helmets, flags, scarves, stickers, and murals. The emblem represents one of the many artistic incarnations of the Griffon, a mythological symbol of the club and the city of Genoa, in the articulation of one of its most appreciated expressions in a stylized form. The use of this emblem is the result of a collaboration with Fabrizio Pianetti, a Genoese business owner and "true Genoese", for the use of the brand "Questione di Feeling" which in recent years has allowed this format to continue to spread and live on its own.
