Associazione Calcio Reggiana, commonly referred to as Reggiana, is a professional football club based in Reggio Emilia, Emilia-Romagna, that currently plays in Serie B. Founded on 1 January 1919, the club is known as i Granata, the Maroons, and its history of reformations and memorable campaigns makes original and signed football shirts especially sought after. Find curated Reggiana items and verified signatures at Walkouts in our specialist selection.
The club was formed in 1919 and, after financial collapses, was reformed in 2005 and again in 2018. On both occasions the entity re-emerged as Reggio Emilia Football Club and later Reggio Audace Football Club before regaining the A.C. Reggiana name and its trophies via judicial auction. These legal returns and the seven Serie A appearances, most recently the 1996-97 campaign, create clear provenance threads that matter to collectors.
Reggiana's primary colour is maroon, which informs both match and retail design across eras. Collector interest often centres on transitional runs where the badge, sponsor or supplier changed after each rebirth, and on shirts that show continuity with the original club identity after the 2005 and 2018 reorganisations. Fans and historians alike value pieces that illustrate those linkages.
Anniversary releases matter for modern collectors; the club's centenary in 2019 produced commemorative shirts and limited editions that celebrate 100 years of local football heritage. Labels that reference the centenary, production runs tied to local retailers, and any official centenary packaging are points of interest for framed displays and archive racks.
Season and match magnets include the club's last top-flight campaign and the rebirth seasons. Shirts from the 1996-97 Serie A season remain chased for their top-division provenance, while items connected to the 2005 Serie C2 reform and the 2018 Serie D rebirth are prized for judicial-auction provenance and the rare early fanshop issues that followed each restart.
Away shirts have their own following; pieces in a classic white with maroon trim colourway are associated with decisive away fixtures during promotion campaigns and are often gathered alongside match reports and photos. Collectors target fanshop retail shirts as well as match-issued variants, and demand is higher for early retail runs, player-issue variants and region-specific releases that predate mass reprints. When available, documented provenance such as a COA increases confidence in a signed retail item.
The judicial auctions that returned the name and trophies after 2005 and 2018 give Reggiana memorabilia a verifiable backstory, and pieces tied to those moments sit alongside shirts from promotion and top-flight seasons. Look for items linked to key seasons such as the 1996-97 Serie A season and the 2018 reformation into Serie D, and for centenary editions like Centenary 2019 when assessing display and signature provenance, and browse the selection at Walkouts for verified shirts and memorabilia.
