1910-1946

Starting off, the Italian national team wore a simple coat of arms badge on its jerseys, featuring the Savoy Cross in the center.

1945-1960

1945 saw the first 'own' logo introduced for the FIGC (Italian Football Federation), which did not appear on shirts (the Scudetto was used instead), but could be seen as an inspiration for the most recent versions of the badge.

1960-1966

1966-1984

1946-1982 (shirt)

After the war, the well-known 'Scudetto', worn by the Italian league winner to this day, started to feature on the Italy national team kits instead of the Savoy Cross.

1982-1991

Having updated the previous variant over the previous almost 40 years, a brand-new logo was created in the 1980s.

1991-2003

Another big update followed in 1991, with a design that's very much a child of its time.

2003-2006

In 2003, the FIGC introduced the logo which is more or less still used today.

2006-2017

With the 2006 World Cup in the bag, the crest was updated ever so slightly to accommodate the fourth star won in Germany. The swirl in the center was enlarged as well.
