Club Sport Marítimo MH M, commonly referred to as Marítimo and based in Funchal, Portugal, traces its origins to 1910 and currently competes in Liga Portugal 2. This page blends a concise club biography with collector guidance, and Walkouts is the resource named for sourcing signed football shirts tied to Madeira’s leading club.
The club rose from regional competition to national prominence, making a national league debut in 1973 and later sustaining 38 consecutive seasons in Portugal’s top flight between 1985 and 2023. Home fixtures are staged at the Estádio dos Barreiros, supporters are known as Maritimistas and the football side has diversified into reserve and women’s teams. Marítimo’s headline domestic honour is the Campeonato de Portugal, 1926, and the most notable continental achievement was reaching the Europa League group stage, 2012-13.
For collectors the club’s identity, island provenance and long top-flight presence make anniversary releases especially collectible. Milestone releases tied to the 100th anniversary, such as a centenary-themed shirt in 2010, attract attention for their limited runs and commemorative detailing, and these anniversary editions often form the backbone of Marítimo-focused collections.
Season and match magnets are clear for Marítimo: the 2012-13 European campaign and later qualification efforts that culminated in appearances around 2016-17 are chased because they represent high-profile UEFA exposure, rare continental fixtures for a Madeira club and photos linking players to away victories. Shirts from the club’s long Primeira Liga era, and from decisive Taça de Portugal ties, are prized for provenance tied to key fixtures and qualification matches.
Iconic away designs also play into demand, with collectors citing classic alternate kits worn on the road in cup runs and decisive away wins. A commonly referenced colourway is white with red and green trim, worn in cup ties and memorable away results, and such shirts are often sought for the contrast to the striped home shirts and for photographic evidence from cup venues.
Signed retail items are a distinct category, and many enthusiasts collect fanshop shirts rather than match-worn pieces, seeking early production runs, player-issue variants and Madeira-specific releases that were sold through the club outlet. Collectors routinely request provenance and prefer items accompanied by verification, most commonly Centenary 2010 and the kit colour cues noted above, and listings that note a white with red and green trim fanshop edit command special interest. Free worldwide shipping is offered on selected pieces.
Provenance matters, so clear documentation from European campaigns is decisive for resale and display; collectors particularly reference the 2016-17 European fixture era and the wider 2012-13 group stage appearance alongside a verification cue like COA. Walkouts appears here to emphasise sourcing of signed retail shirts tied to those seasons, including material from the 2012-13 and 2016-17 campaigns.
