Kit Launch | AS Ostia Mare 2024 Shirts by Ezeta
Posted on 24/02/24
AS Ostia Mare, a team competing in the Italian Serie D, has undergone a striking visual transformation courtesy of Ezeta, the creative brand renowned for its innovative designs. Ezeta has bestowed upon them a complete kit set, reflecting their distinctive style.
Drawing inspiration once again from the rich historical tapestry of Rome, Ezeta has turned its attention to AS Ostia Mare, a club from the lower tiers of Italian football based in Ostia, a district of Rome, Lazio. Currently competing in Serie D, AS Ostia Mare's new home and away shirts are adorned in shades of purple and red respectively, drawing influence from the Mosaic of Bacchus and Ariadne for the former, and the Municipal Palace of Ostia for the latter. The collaboration commenced with the redesign of the club crest, a hallmark of Ezeta's creative approach. Renowned designer Dan Norris, a frequent collaborator with Ezeta, lent his expertise to this endeavor. The redesigned crest, now presented in a circular format for a modern touch, features a seagull dividing the circle to accommodate the club's full name, "Ostiamare Lido Calcio 1945," with white and purple stripes dynamically inclined to follow the seagull's flight. Research into the symbolism of purple, the traditional home color of Ostia Mare, led Ezeta to Bacchus, the deity of the grape harvest, and the ancient mosaic portraying Bacchus and Ariadne at the Ostia archaeological park. This inspired the design of the home shirt, with a similar motif applied to the away shirt in red.
The third and fourth shirts draw inspiration from the Municipal Palace of Ostia, featuring iconic elements representing Roman mythology and the city's historical significance. Architectural details such as Poseidon, Hippocampus, the Capitoline she-wolf, and ears of wheat, symbolizing Ostia's role as Rome's ancient seaport, are incorporated into a striking geometrical pattern adorning the jerseys. Consistent with Ezeta's past designs, a band across the chest is a prominent feature of the template. The third shirt reverses the color scheme of the home shirt, while the fourth shirt adopts golden yellow hues reminiscent of wheat and the courtyard of the municipal building.
