“To mark the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Hellenic Football Federation, adidas and the Hellenic Football Federation are reintroducing the jersey that became a symbol of that unforgettable summer, bringing this soccer legacy to the present day and to a new generation of fans.
In the summer of 2004, in Portugal, the Greek national team wrote one of the most significant chapters in the history of Greek sports by winning UEFA EURO 2004. A triumph that transcended the boundaries of soccer and created images, emotions, and memories that remain vivid to this day.
The campaign bridges the past with the present, highlighting the timeless legacy of an iconic moment in Greek soccer. With the participation of players from the current national team, a new generation is taking up the torch, continuing to write its own story. The campaign features Konstantinos Tsimikas, Fotis Ioannidis, Konstantinos Koulierakis, and Christos Zafeiris.
The 100th anniversary of the Hellenic Football Federation’s (EPO) founding lends yet another layer of symbolism to the trip to Portugal, where the Greek national team reached the pinnacle of European soccer. In collaboration with AEGEAN, one of the airline’s flights from Greece to Portugal will be part of the celebration, with passengers finding the iconic jersey in their seats along with special surprises. A journey, 22 years later, that revives an unforgettable chapter in Greek soccer history, symbolically bridging the past with the present.
Designed as a soccer-inspired lifestyle piece for both the younger generation and those who lived through the summer of 2004, the jersey retains the distinctive elements of the original design, featuring the adidas logo and the Hellenic Football Federation emblem on the chest, a classic round neckline, and a comfortable fit. Made from lightweight fabric and 100% recycled polyester, it combines soccer heritage with a modern lifestyle.
More than just a jersey, it’s a symbol of a story that hasn’t been left behind—it continues to unite us, passing from generation to generation and being rewritten time and again. The Greek National Team’s away kit is available at adidas.gr, at the adidas Store at 44 Ermou Street, and at select partner retail stores.”
