Oriente Petrolero 2017 Home Shirt

A shirt made by the club itself, under its own label, and loaded like a Santa Cruz billboard: Tigo on the chest with Tigre and Paceña beer above, Fidalga, Gladymar and Cemento Camba in the corners, Sofía and MAHS on the back, and the starred crest as a giant watermark across the hoops. But the detail that makes the piece is written above the numbers: SIEMPRE DE PRIMERA..., a motto that at Oriente is literal, because the club has never been relegated in its entire history.

In 2017 the Albiverdes were keeping that status intact in Bolivia's top flight, with the Tahuichi Aguilera dressed in green.

Here at Hoopster, this is the shirt that turns the league table into identity: some clubs make promises, this one embroidered its promise on the back.
