Club Deportivo Basconia is a Spanish football club from Basauri that currently plays in the Segunda Federación - Group 2, founded on 14 March 1913, and its shirts and history are available for collectors via Walkouts. The club is best known locally for serving as Athletic Bilbao's developmental side while maintaining a distinct Basauri identity.
The team's modern home is the Artunduaga Sports Centre, a modest complex that replaced the town's older ground, the Estadio López Cortázar, which was demolished to make way for redevelopment. In 1997 Basconia entered a formal partnership with Athletic Bilbao, a step that reshaped its role and the provenance of many match and retail shirts that surface on secondary markets.
As a feeder and reserve pathway the club fields young professionals and often displays year-on-year kit evolution tied to regional suppliers and fan releases. The Basauri connection is important to collectors because shirts commonly reference local civic identity, and provenance is supported by match listings and club records held at the Artunduaga complex and in town archives.
Collector attention concentrates on anniversary and early-run releases, fanshop editions and signed retail pieces rather than only match-worn shirts. Free worldwide shipping is offered on selected authenticated items, and documented signatures or retail-first runs tend to attract the most interest from regional and international buyers.
Anniversary releases mark key milestones, most notably the club's Centenary, promoted as Centenary 2013, which produced limited commemorative shirts and printed runs tied to centenary events. That period and the surrounding competitions, including the 2012-13 season, are often chased because they combine celebratory motifs with player signatures and low-run retail editions that are easier to verify than many match-issued examples.
Away shirts also form a distinct strand of interest, with collectors seeking older colourways such as a traditional white with red trim kit that featured in decisive away victories in regional cup and league fixtures. Signed retail items and fanshop editions from those runs often carry provenance labels or accompanying COA, which helps separate retail-signed shirts from authenticated match-worn pieces.
For collectors this is a club whose provenance rests on three clear place names, Artunduaga Sports Centre, Estadio López Cortázar and Athletic Bilbao, and on identifiable seasons and releases. The best listings will cite centenary runs and specific seasons such as the 1997-98 season and the 2012-13 season, showing match or retail context alongside photographic proof and clear signing documentation, and Walkouts will usually describe the verification offered and the shirt's origin in each listing.
