In 1953 Vicenza was bought by a woolen firm, Lane Rossi, so the team was renamed Lane Rossi Vicenza, and the R was the logo of the industry (Lane Rossi). It was the first sponsorship in the Italian Football although it was not only a sponsor but a new name for the team (sponsorships were prohibited until the 80's).
