Walkouts Santos signed football shirts and framed shirts

About

Santos Futebol Clube, based in Vila Belmiro, Santos, plays in Campeonato Brasileiro Série A, and is offered here with a focus on provenance and shirt history. Founded on 14 April 1912, the club from Santos now competes in the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A after winning promotion, and collectors on Walkouts will find items spanning the Pelé era to contemporary limited editions.

The club became a global symbol of Joga Bonito in the 1960s and produced the legendary Os Santásticos side, led by Pelé and team-mates like Coutinho and Pepe. Home matches are staged at the intimate shore-side ground, the Vila Belmiro, which remains the visual and cultural heart of the club and a frequent provenance note on signed shirts and framed pieces.

Santos is among Brazil’s most decorated sides and is widely recorded as national champions on eight occasions; that headline tally of eight national championships is often referenced when grading the historical importance of a shirt. Regional pride is equally strong, with numerous Campeonato Paulista triumphs giving local releases and anniversary kits extra resonance with collectors.

On the continental stage Santos has a storied record, notably lifting the Copa Libertadores on multiple occasions; the club’s continental landmark of three Copa Libertadores victories is a primary driver for demand in South American provenance and match association for shirts purportedly used in international fixtures.

For collectors the demand divides between match-issued pieces and carefully curated fanshop runs. Fanshop shirts, early production runs, and player-issue variants from the club store are explicitly collected alongside match-worn examples, and buyer interest often focuses on clear provenance, original sleeve details, sponsor eras and supplier transitions rather than speculative claims.

Milestone releases carry particular weight, for example commemorative items from the Centenary 2012 window and other anniversary drops. Those releases, when offered with a COA or comparable documentation, are prized because the paperwork ties retail pieces to official club events or limited runs, increasing their desirability for display and curated framed presentations.

Provenance notes routinely reference specific eras and fixtures, especially the 1960s golden years; shirts linked to the 1962 quadruple and related international ties attract consistent attention. Items tied to the 1962 Copa Libertadores final and the 1962 European/South American Cup are frequently cited in catalogue entries and are among the most requested in Pelé-era and vintage categories, making them focal points for display and authentication research on Walkouts.

Honours

Santos' trophy cabinet blends domestic dominance with continental acclaim. The club has claimed the top national crown on eight occasions and has lifted the São Paulo state title over twenty times, asserting regional supremacy. Internationally, Santos secured the Copa Libertadores multiple times, winning the competition on three occasions, and converted those continental successes into two Intercontinental Cup triumphs. The 1962 campaign stands out: the side completed a rare quadruple by taking the Campeonato Paulista, the national championship, the Copa Libertadores and the European/South American Cup. Across the 1960s Os Santásticos amassed an extraordinary haul, including five straight national titles, and the club marked a global milestone by registering its 10,000th goal on 20 January 1998. Additional honours include the Copa CONMEBOL, Copa do Brasil and a Recopa Sudamericana, underscoring Santos' sustained presence among South America's elite.
