Club goalkeeper socks signed Macron
The goalkeeper socks Macron are from the clubs dressed by the Italian sportswear brand: Udinese, Bologna, Sampdoria, and for children, Levante UD. Each pair matches the colour of the goalkeeper's kit, home or away, and not that of the outfield players champ, for the fan who wants the complete outfit of their last line of defence as well as for the young goalkeeper.
The Italian goalkeeper's kit, right down to the feet.
Macron, from Bologna to Serie A goalkeeper kits
Macron was born in Bologna in 1971, starting out as a distributor in Italy for American sports brands before becoming a manufacturer in the 1980s. Its first contract with a professional football club was signed in 2001 with Bologna FC 1909, which the brand has dressed without interruption since then. Now based in Valsamoggia, in the Bologna suburb, the equipment supplier has made Italian clubs its preferred ground and places the Macron Hero on every piece, a logo representing an athlete celebrating the achievement. The goalkeeper socks complete the outfit, finishing the design from head to toe.
Other goalkeeper socks in the shop
If you prefer training socks to wear with any shirt, the Uhlsport goalkeeper socks are sold in packs of three pairs with reinforced soles. To compare all equipment brands and all clubs, the complete range of goalkeeper socks also includes pairs for the OM goalkeeper and plain training models.
Udinese, Bologna, Sampdoria: unique pairs for each goalkeeper
Each club dressed by Macron designs a goalkeeper outfit distinct from its home shirt. At Udinese, a partner of the brand since 2018, the black and white of Friuli gives way in goal to contrasting shades, available in home and away versions. The Bologna goalkeeper similarly stands out from the red and blue rossoblù, just like the one for Sampdoria, a Genoese club founded in 1946 and dressed by Macron from 2020. The socks faithfully match the colour of the goalkeeper shirt: choose the pair that corresponds to the shirt you wear or collect.
Adult and child sizes for Macron socks
The Macron goalkeeper socks come in adult size and, for some clubs like Udinese or Levante UD, in child size. They are selected by size range: aim for the range that includes your size without being at its upper limit, so the heel sits in the right place and the sock goes up to just below the knee. A well-fitting pair fully covers the shin guard, as required by the rules, and does not slide down over the ankle after a series of dives. For a child growing, the upper range is only justified if their size is already on the border between two sizes.
Grab a pair of Macron during key moments
The goalkeeper pairs from Macron change with each new club kit, and the previous ones then become great opportunities. During Black Friday and as the year-end holidays approach, look for promotions on goalkeeper gear to gift a pair from their club to a young goalkeeper. The winter sales, followed by the French Days selection of goalkeeper gear in spring, are other opportunities, and clearance sales feature pairs from Udinese or Bologna from past years. The summer sales, finally, precede the start of training.
Frequently asked questions
Are Macron goalkeeper socks suitable for playing in a club?
Yes, they are proper football socks, high and fitted, that cover the shin guard as required by the rules. Just make sure their colour is distinct from those of your team and the opponents before wearing them in an official match.
Why aren’t Udinese's goalkeeper socks black and white?
Because the goalkeeper must wear colours that distinguish them from their teammates, opponents, and referees. The black and white is reserved for pitch players of Udinese, so Macron designs a kit in a different shade for the goalkeeper, including the socks.
Can Macron socks be worn with a shirt from another brand?
Nothing prohibits it; the important thing is that your outfit is distinct from those of other players. Just choose a pair whose colour matches your shirt and shorts, or else the referee may ask you to change before kick-off.
How can I tell if a pair corresponds to the home or away kit?
The name of the product specifies the kit concerned, home or away, and the colour matches that of the corresponding goalkeeper shirt. Compare the visuals of the pair and the shirt before ordering if you want a perfectly coordinated set.
How do I care for Macron goalkeeper socks?
Wash them inside out and at a low temperature, without fabric softener, to maintain the elasticity and bright colours of the goalkeeper kit. Air dry them: the heat from the tumble dryer can loosen the fit around the calf and eventually cause the sock to slip down.
