About Shanghai SIPG
Shanghai Port, formerly known as Shanghai SIPG, are one of Chinese football's most ambitious and successful clubs, a team that has reshaped the landscape of the Chinese Super League and made the world take notice. Founded in 2005 as Shanghai East Asia, the club was rebranded after the Shanghai International Port Group took over in 2014, fuelling a dramatic transformation. Playing in red and blue at the magnificent 33,000-capacity Pudong Football Stadium, SIPG became CSL champions in 2018 under coach Vitor Pereira and have remained among China's elite ever since. World-class names like Oscar, Hulk, and Dario Conca all pulled on the red and blue, making Pudong one of the most exciting footballing destinations in Asia during the late 2010s.

The red and blue of Shanghai Port carry the weight of a club determined to build something lasting. The kits worn during the golden SIPG era, when Oscar and Hulk terrorised defences across Asia, are already fondly remembered by fans who packed out Pudong on big European nights. The home red shirts of the 2018 title-winning season capture the peak of the club's ambitions perfectly. Under the Shanghai Port identity since 2021 the club has refreshed its visual brand, but the commitment to bold, striking designs has remained constant, and their shirts continue to feel like a statement of intent from a club that wants to be taken seriously on the world stage.
