The consecration for Augustin Fournier : the Stade Malherbe Caen (Calvados) has put up for sale its 50 years home jersey posters, from 1971 to 2021.
Before designing the tunics retracing the history of his favorite club, Augustin embarked on a lot of research in the archives.
The technical staff of the Norman club helped him enormously.
“In the seventies, there were pictures of players who did not wear the same jersey. “
Full-scale
Also with the help of Malherbe’s centenary book, this football enthusiast, domiciled in Coulonces (Orne), has managed to put each jersey at the right time to the delight of football fans.
Graphic designer for two years, Augustin, 22, also offers to customize your favorite swimsuits.
For 2021, his project is to reproduce life-size jerseys on PVC.
People will be able to customize and order them.

In two years, everything went very quickly for the young man.
At the end of the baccalaureate, he headed for scientific studies.
At the end of his two years in preparatory class in Caen, he opted for a creative profession.
Two years ago, he turned to a DUT MMI (Multimedia and Internet professions) to theIUT of Laval (Mayenne).
His choice is validated.
This led him to do an internship at the Laval Stadium as a communication assistant. Internship shortened because of the health crisis in the spring.
Blood and Gold in Malherbe
The idea of designing soccer jerseys then germinated.
“A supporter of Lens made a poster with the story of the Blood and Gold.”
“As I had collaborated with Malherbe, I was asked by the supporters of the Norman club on social networks to achieve the same thing. “
At the end of the confinement, Augustin finishes the poster that he posts on social networks. Bingo.
Malherbe spots his new work, remembers this first collaboration and contacts him to suggest that he put his creation in store.
A year earlier, he had drawn a visual of the players of the Stade Malherbe in the form of a game: he proposed to the community of Caen supporters, very present on the social network, to find the players passed by the Norman club who were hiding behind each illustration. .
Freelance graphic designer for five weeks, Augustin is a student in professional license in communication, alternately at Tibtop, at Rouen (Seine-Maritime) where he refines his project.
