Whether you're a lifelong supporter of the Panthers or a dedicated memorabilia collector, our hand-signed merchandise captures the rich heritage of one of Portugal's most iconic football clubs.
Founded on 1 August 1903, Boavista Futebol Clube has carved out a unique place in Portuguese football history. Based in the city of Porto, specifically in the Boavista district, the club has been a cornerstone of competitive football for well over a century. Known affectionately by supporters as the "Axadrezados," which means "Chequered Ones," Boavista is instantly recognisable by its black and white chequered kit. Throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, the club enjoyed domestic success, most notably winning the Primeira Liga title in the 2000–01 season, a rare feat achieved outside the traditional Big Three of Portuguese football.
The historic Estádio do Bessa Século XXI, Boavista’s home ground, has witnessed countless spectacular moments and legendary figures. The stadium, modernised for UEFA Euro 2004, remains a fortress for the Panthers and a centrepiece of their identity. With fierce rivalries, including a renowned local derby against FC Porto, passionate clashes have become a staple of Boavista culture.
Some of the club’s leading players have left a lasting legacy, many of whom are now featured in our official range of signed memorabilia. At Walkouts, you can find hand-signed items from celebrated stars like Ricardo Costa, a key figure in Portugal’s national team, and André Gomes, who demonstrated his talent at Benfica before moving on to Barcelona and Everton. Other standouts include Kenyan striker McDonald Mariga, known for his powerful midfield presence, and Raul Meireles, whose flair and creativity helped define an era. With genuine signatures, each item offers a tangible connection to your favourite football icons.
