Envision a journey through the serene landscapes of the Bavarian Mountains, interspersed with the historical echoes of Germany’s most celebrated football club. adidas, with the revelation of FC Bayern Munich’s third kit for the 2023/24 season, aims to give fans and players this experience with every wear.
Unveiling a kit isn’t merely a nod to fashion or a fresh on-field appearance for adidas. It’s about the club’s soul, its history, and the deep-seated bond between a team and its fans. The newly revealed third kit for FC Bayern Munich is no exception. When players don the vibrant pattern, they aren’t just wearing a uniform – they’re draped in the essence of their club’s roots.
The lively all-over print of the kit is a bold embrace of Bavaria’s natural charm. It’s a nod to the flowers that garnish the Bavarian Mountain range. For players who’ve battled on pitches worldwide and fans who’ve chanted the club’s anthems in foreign lands, this design serves as a gentle reminder of the club’s home.
Delving further into the profound meaning behind the design, one can’t help but appreciate the reincorporation of the original club crest – one that adorned the very documents that heralded the birth of FC Bayern Munich. This retro emblem in burgundy red is beautifully juxtaposed against an off-white canvas. And, as if to seal the kit with the stamp of modernity, the adidas logo stands out, bearing the same color.
“Mia san Mia“, a motto that reverberates with every triumph and trial of FC Bayern Munich, finds its prideful place inside the white round neck collar. Beyond being a phrase, it’s the lifeblood of the club – epitomizing the team’s ambition, determination, and relentless pursuit of excellence.
Lisa Datz, the mastermind behind this apparel creation at adidas, eloquently encapsulated the essence of this new design. “Our goal,” she opined, “was to weave the club’s rich tapestry into a kit. From the foundational moments to the majestic Bavarian landscapes, every inch is drenched in meaning. As FC Bayern Munich embarks on another thrilling chapter, we eagerly anticipate the sight of this jersey on players and fans – within stadiums and on global streets.”
Performance isn’t sacrificed for aesthetics, however. The jersey crafted for the titans on the field boasts HEAT.RDY technology, ensuring optimal comfort during the most challenging matches. For the legion of fans, the kit, armed with AEROREADY technology, prioritizes keeping them dry and comfortable.
adidas, in their relentless pursuit of sustainability, has ensured both versions of this kit are forged from 100% recycled materials. This commitment forms a part of the company’s grander vision of eliminating plastic waste. Notably, The three-stripes brand is on an accelerated track to predominantly use recycled polyester over virgin polyester by the close of 2024.
This unique jersey is now available via FC Bayern München stores, selected retailers, and of course on adidas.com or fcbayern.com/store/.
