I was walking through Arema Blue Village with a traveler from Liverpool when he asked me where he could buy a team jersey.
"Go to the Arema FC Official Store," I told him. "That is where you find the real ones."
When I visited the store in March 2026, I still saw a wall dedicated to the legendary Singo Edan Apparel (SEA) brand.
Arema FC is famous for starting its own brand and was one of the first clubs in Indonesia to say, "We don't need a big brand; we can build our own."
For a traveler, a SEA jersey is the most authentic souvenir you can find. It represents the club’s independence and its deep connection to the people of Malang.
The club has now moved into a new era with Etams as the official partner, but the legendary spirit of SEA is still there. You can see this spirit most clearly in their new fourth jersey.
Primarily white with light grey touches, the design symbolizes a new chapter of hope and peace. This jersey is truly special: all money from its sale will be donated to the families of the 135 victims of the Kanjuruhan tragedy. It is more than just a new look for the team. It is a symbol of care and unity. It reminds us that Arema FC and Aremania always stand together, no matter what happens.
So, when you are ready to buy your own jersey, make sure to go to the Arema FC Official Store. It is the best way to get a real product and support the club we love.
