AS Roma 2006-07 Diadora Jersey — The Lupo's Serie A upper-class season

In 2006-07, Luciano Spalletti's AS Roma was firing on all cylinders, competing for the Serie A title until the very end. This 2006-2007 Diadora home jersey is a direct relic from the great Giallorossi years of the 2000s — a period when the Lupo instilled fear in everyone in Italy.

What this jersey represents

The 2006-2007 AS Roma season is one of the club's most electrifying in the 2000s. Under Luciano Spalletti, Roma pushed Inter Milan until the final matchdays in the Scudetto race, finishing second in Serie A with 70 points — a record many clubs never achieve. The Olimpico was buzzing, the city was in a trance, and Diadora dressed it all with its characteristic touch of Italian kit manufacturers of the era.

This was also the season when Roma shone in the Champions League, a competition in which the club returned with vigor. The squad was a collection of names that still make tifosi salivate: Francesco Totti in all his splendor at the peak of his art, Rodrigo Taddei, Daniele De Rossi who definitively established himself as the midfield boss, and Vincenzo Montella at the very end of his Giallorossi career. A solid, technical group with a strong identity.

Moments etched in this jersey

The 2006-07 Scudetto race against Inter
Spalletti's Roma never let Inter off the hook all season and finished as runners-up with 70 points. An XXL performance that proved this group was capable of competing with the best in Italy.

Francesco Totti, absolute captain
At 30 in 2006-07, Totti was at his peak. He scored goals and provided assists as if it were second nature, confirming his status as the club's greatest player. Wearing this jersey means wearing the number 10 in your blood.

Daniele De Rossi, the confirmed prodigy
After winning the 2006 World Cup with the Nazionale — the best gift football could offer Rome that summer — De Rossi returned to the banks of the Tiber with the world champion star on his chest. This 2006-07 season definitively confirmed him as the heir to the Roman midfield.

Authentic vs Replica

An authentic vintage jersey is not the same as a replica sold in supermarkets. It's a piece that has lived — in a stadium, in a stands, or in the hands of a true football enthusiast who knew what they had. The stitching is different, the fabric breathed differently, and the Diadora flocking of the era has a texture that no modern print can reproduce.

This one shows an 8/10 condition with SPOTS — some small visible marks that attest to its history, but nothing that compromises the solidity or readability of the jersey. This is the reality of the vintage collector's jersey: absolute perfection no longer exists after 18 years, and that's precisely what makes it honest and authentic.

Vintage sizing guide

The sizes of vintage Diadora jerseys from the 2000s do not correspond to current standards. A 2006 M generally fits like today's S/M according to modern measurements. The cuts were more fitted, the sleeves narrower, and the overall drape is significantly different from contemporary loose and oversized jerseys.

Before buying, measure your own favorite jersey flat: chest width (armpit to armpit), total back length, and shoulder width. Then compare with the actual product measurements if available, or contact us directly — we're here to save you from an unpleasant surprise. A vintage jersey that doesn't fit is a vintage jersey you'll regret.

Why have it in your collection

The Diadora AS Roma jerseys from the 2000s are increasingly rare pieces on the market. Diadora supplied Roma until the kit manufacturer change, and their productions from that period have a visual identity and manufacturing quality that clearly distinguish them from subsequent series. Finding a copy of the 2006-07 season in good condition has become difficult — collectors of vintage Serie A jerseys know this very well.

At 8/10 with SPOTS, this jersey remains at the top of the range for a piece almost twenty years old. There aren't many in this condition on the market — most of the circulating copies are either too worn to be worn, or replicas that have nothing to do with the original. This one is real, it's here, and it's waiting for the right collector.
