Napoli Third 24-25

On the jersey’s side, the seven virtues of Bushidō are elegantly inscribed, reflecting the Samurai’s way of life:

• Gi 義 – Righteousness
• Yu 勇 – Courage
• Jin 仁 – Compassion
• Rei 礼 – Respect
• Makoto 誠 – Honesty
• Meiyo 名誉 – Honor
• Chugi 忠義 – Loyalty

This iconic piece honors the friendship between Naples and Kagoshima, two cities united since their twinning in 1960. Often called “The Naples of Japan,” Kagoshima, with its bay, mild climate, and majestic Sakurajima volcano, mirrors Naples’ spirit. This bond is celebrated in street dedications: “Napori dōri – Naples Avenue” in Kagoshima and “Via Kagoshima” in Naples, symbolizing the enduring respect and admiration between these two coastal cities.
