A Belma made in Portugal with all of Ançã on it: Fapricela, the village wire drawing company, on the chest, Tubomáquinas on the back, the Cantanhede municipality and the parish coat of arms on the sleeves, and the cry #SomosFerryaço running down the arms. The hoops carry a tonal pattern like worked stone, golden pinstripes between them, the crowned crest on the chest and the birth certificate at the neck: 1 May 1941.
It serves the 2025/26 season in the Coimbra FA's Divisão de Honra, the habitat of a four time district champion that tasted the national Third Division in the seventies. It is the shirt of a village with two ancient trades, carving the stone that built cathedrals and drawing the steel that makes wire, and a third, more recent one, that gathers everyone on Sundays.
Here at Hoopster the Ferryaço enters the way things are made in Ançã: slowly, from local matter, and built to last. Stone, steel and hoops, all from the same village.
