Borussia Dortmund’s new home kit demands an eye for detail. In the middle of the classic black and yellow pattern, this contains a reference to the origin of the club.

Hidden details: Shortly before the last match day of the Bundesliga season, Borussia Dortmund presents the new home jersey for the coming season. The special thing about it: The alternating yellow and black stripes, which have a cut-out in the middle that is supposed to symbolize the window of the “Zum Wildschütz” inn, where BVB was founded on December 19, 1909.

Old and new: According to a statement on Dortmund’s website, the jersey should unite “tradition and modernity” and “past with present”. So the club would swing “more than 100 years later” from the cradle of BVB to Signal Iduna Park.

Jersey debut: The jersey made its debut on Saturday in the last home game against Hertha BSC. However, direct acquisition is difficult at the moment, despite the start of sales, as there are said to be delivery bottlenecks.
