Our Story
Who are we?
At the heart of my passion for vintage football shirts lies a lifelong love affair with the beautiful game. Born and bred in Geneva, Switzerland, in the early '90s, football has been an integral part of my life since childhood. Growing up in the vibrant football culture of Geneva, it was only natural that I developed a deep-rooted love for the game.
Proud Genevan, I've called this city home for as long as we can remember. And if there's one thing that unites us beyond our shared hometown, it's our unwavering support for our beloved Servette FC. Back in the day, I used to regularly go watch Servette FC with my father at the Stade des Charmilles. I've been a club member since 2015 and attend all Servette's home games from the North Stand.
I'm also a devoted FC Porto supporter, hailing from the city of Porto, Portugal, and carrying on a family legacy of allegiance to the club. My connection to FC Porto runs deep, as I fondly recall attending matches with both my father and grandfather during the 1990s in the Estádio das Antas, cementing my lifelong passion for the team. I'm now a sócio of the club and travel at least 3 to 4 times a year to attend games at the Estádio do Dragão with my grandfather.
I have now more than two hundred shirts in my collection.
My mission
My mission is to share my passion for football with all those who relive the great moments of the game every time they wear a football shirt. I select and offer you only authentic shirts with exceptional historical value.
How was Aura Football Shirts born?
In my quest to share my passion for vintage football with fellow enthusiasts, I've curated a collection of timeless shirts that pay homage to the rich history and iconic moments of the beautiful game. Each shirt tells a story, evoking memories of bygone eras and legendary players who graced the hallowed turf.
I'm always looking for the right shirt to add to my collection. However, the fire that drives me has to deal with the growing complexity of obtaining some exceptional, official, and even historic match shirts. It quickly became clear to me that traditional sellers were offering very few of them, and as a result, the market has become parasitized by fakes.
It is from this observation that Aura Football Shirts was born!
My goal is simple. I want to make available to this community of enthusiasts the experience I have acquired in my perpetual quest. This expertise allows me to offer you the shirts you have always been looking for.
Do you remember the shirts that your favorite players wore in that European or World Cup final? Or the shirt they wore in that exceptional goal? This is where you will find them.
So, I invite you to join me on this journey through football's storied past. From the terraces of Geneva to the streets of Porto, let's celebrate the game we love and the memories that unite us all through football and vintage football shirts.
Welcome to my world of vintage football, where every shirt has a story to tell.
Why Aura?
An aura is a distinctive atmosphere that seems to surround and be generated by a person or a thing.
Football shirts refer to historic moments. For this reason, an aura emanates from them. By looking at these kits, we can remember the significant events when they were worn.
For these reasons, it seemed obvious to me that this term should be the chosen one.
