KAPPA X FC VERSAILLES

The 2024-25 home kit is an ode to the Versailles parquet and its emblematic motif in the history of France. This parquet is a symbol of the French art of living from the 17th to the 19th century. Made up of wooden panels, generally oak, this type of parquet gets its name from the Palace of Versailles, for which the pattern was created to replace the marble floors of the palace at that time. The home kit consists of a predominantly blue jersey with the Versailles parquet motif applied all over the front in gold. It is completed with blue shorts and socks. The away kit, on the other hand, is inspired by the elegance of cabochon floors used since the 18th century. Cabochon tiling is a classic of ancient French paving, known for its octagonal tile. Under Louis XV and the Regency, cabochon paving was one of the most used, especially in castles and mansions; it is a sign of luxury and refinement. On the FC Versailles away jersey, these colors have been revisited with navy blue and white. The jersey is completed with white shorts and socks. This campaign was shot by photographer Ethan White at Château de Dampierre en Yvelines. These new kits will be debuted for the first time this Saturday at 8 PM, during the friendly match between FC Versailles and Beauvais. The jerseys are available in both short-sleeve and long-sleeve versions from today on www.kappa.fr and www.shop.fcversailles.com .
