The traditional ‘Perfect Halved’ shirt of Galatasaray is made up of 8 parts. Each part alternates in colour with yellow and red - creating a complete half and half design when looked at from all angles. The Turkish term for this design is called ‘Tam Parçalı’. @TamParcali
"Birçok yeri dolaştıktan sonra, Bahçekapı'daki Şişman Yanko'nun dükkanında iki kumaşa tesadüf ettik. Biri, vişneye çalan koyuca tatlı bir kırmızı, öteki de, içinde turuncudan iz taşıyan tok bir sarı. Tezgahtar, mahirane bir el hareketi ile kumaşların dalgalarını birleştirdi.”
A prototype of the Galatasaray 13-14 Home shirt. As you can see it is the perfect halved design.
The final version has a red square on the back for the name & number to meet UEFA and Turkish League regulations. UEFA have since changed their rules regarding this...
@phildelves@nikefootball@Galatasaray It was said by the club founder regarding the chosen club colours: ‘When Galatasaray’s yellow and red colours were placed together, it was like a dancing flame, shining on the team, and I imagined it leading us to victories, and that is what it did.’
