The AC Milan 1997–98 Special Jersey by Lotto is a quintessential representation of 90s football aesthetic—unapologetically bold, geometrically expressive, and deeply rooted in club identity. The shirt’s striking red base is accentuated by black raglan-style sleeves, featuring aggressive zigzag lightning graphics outlined in white and crimson, injecting high-voltage energy into the overall design.
 
A unique hallmark of this piece lies in the asymmetrical V-insert collar—a layered composition in red and black striping that typifies 90s Italian craftsmanship. The inclusion of the embroidered gold star above the AC Milan crest denotes their 10 league titles, a subtle but powerful symbol of dominance. Meanwhile, the Lotto logo and Opel sponsor appear in crisp white, maintaining balance and contrast against the vibrant red field.
 
The textured fabric subtly incorporates tonal patterning that enhances depth and complexity upon close inspection. The official patch label stitched at the bottom corner serves as a nostalgic authenticity mark, anchoring the jersey in its original era.
 
Overall, this is a retro statement piece—full of character, emblematic of its time, and unmistakably Milan.
