Fluminense launches book on kit history, icons gather at Laranjeiras

Fluminense officially launched the book “Blessed Armor – The Most Beautiful Jersey in the World” this Sunday (2) in the Salão Nobre at Laranjeiras. The event brought together fans, collectors, and former players to celebrate the history of the kits that have marked different generations of the club.

During the event, attendees were able to visit an exhibition of historic Tricolor shirts, which portrayed the evolution of the club’s kits over more than a century. The display allowed fans to relive remarkable moments in Fluminense’s history through one of the greatest symbols of the club’s identity: its traditional tricolor armor.

Romerito highlighted the importance of the work in preserving Tricolor memory.

“It’s a story that was born at Fluminense, built up, and grew. Practically every week, not only here at the club but also in Paraguay, I relive these emotions. I have a deep affection for Fluminense’s fans. Seeing the historic kits brought together and the club’s journey told through its armor was a spectacular idea. The book is very good and shows what Fluminense has that is most valuable: its history. It’s a joy to be here, in the Salão Nobre, taking part in such a special moment.”

Former striker Tuta also celebrated the initiative and recalled his time at the club.

“Remembering this whole generation is very special. I was part of the 2005 and 2006 squad, and seeing again so many names that made an era is emotional. Whenever I return to Fluminense, I feel a different atmosphere. Those who honor the tricolor armor know that it will always be blessed. I’m very happy for the recognition and to see that, after so many years, the fans still remember me. That’s fantastic.”

In addition to the kit exhibition, the event featured Tricolor collectors, who displayed rare pieces from their collections, and Liga Retrô, which presented models inspired by historic Fluminense shirts.

Fans were also able to purchase copies of the book, the result of extensive research into the history of the club’s kits. The work brings together more than 2,000 illustrations and around 330 images, and is also available at Fluminense’s official stores.
