Alberto Gilardino Italy 2006 Away Shirt 11, Puma’s clean white change design from the Azzurri’s World Cup-winning campaign in Germany. Finished with Gilardino’s number 11 nameset, the shirt comes from a tournament where the striker scored against the USA and played a decisive role in Italy’s unforgettable semi-final victory over hosts Germany.

The white body is built around a deep blue inner collar panel carrying the Italy crest, with dark Puma branding and subtle blue trim keeping the design sharp and minimal. Gilardino 11 on the reverse gives the shirt its defining player identity from one of Italy’s most celebrated international generations.
Gilardino scored Italy’s goal in the 1-1 group-stage draw with the USA before producing one of his biggest contributions in the semi-final against Germany. Introduced in the second half, he struck the post in extra time and then supplied the pass for Alessandro Del Piero’s 120th-minute goal to seal the 2-0 win in Dortmund. Italy went on to beat France on penalties in Berlin, giving Gilardino a World Cup winners’ medal and placing the number 11 shirt firmly inside Italy’s 2006 triumph.
