( CNN ) -- When celebrating an important anniversary , it 's always good to look your best . At least that 's the theory behind the latest kit for Spanish football team Cultural y Deportivo Leonesa , whose players donned a somewhat special uniform for a preseason tournament Wednesday . A cross between formal evening-wear and a sporting outfit , the tuxedo-esque strip was specially designed by Danish firm Hummel to celebrate the third division side 's 90th birthday . The club will give 10 % of the proceeds to charities for mining families based in the region of Leon where it is based , while local children will also receive free football kits and coaching classes . Fan reaction has been mixed since last week 's preview , says Hummel 's marketing manager Henning Nielsen , but the jersey has garnered worldwide attention for a team which has only once graced Spain 's top flight -- back in the 1955-56 season . `` The club wanted to help the mining industry in the region , which is having some really tough times , '' Nielsen told CNN . `` We wanted to go in and explore the club 's heritage and find what has local character , and incorporate that into the design . `` The club is celebrating its 90-year anniversary , so instead of having a formal reception with wine and drinks and snacks the club decided to do something ... another way with a bit of character . '' The concept of designing a special-edition football kit to carry a special message is far from a new one -- especially in Spain . In 2000 , Deportivo Alaves released a shirt that featured the name of every season ticket-holder at the club to show solidarity between the then top-flight team and its fans . Second division club Deportivo Lugo , meanwhile , has released two special-edition kits for the coming preseason that take the appearance of a glass of beer and an octopus -- two delicacies of the Galicia region in northwest Spain where the side is based . La Hoya Lorca has played the last two Segunda B seasons in a broccoli-style shirt which is said to represent the southern Murcia region 's reputation for growing vegetables . Even some of Spain 's most famous clubs , like Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao , have gotten in on the act . Last season Barca 's away kit was based on the Catalan flag , while Bilbao 's 2011-12 away strip reflected the Basque flag and a few years earlier its `` spilled blood '' shirt was designed by a local artist whose work features in the city 's Guggenheim Museum .
