Bayern Munich’s new Home Jersey to debut in Champions League Iconic red with a modern twist
FC Bayern Munich is the first club to unveil its new Home Jersey for the 2026/27 season. As always, the design bears the signature of adidas, while the element of surprise comes from the debut date on the pitch: Vincent Kompany’s side will wear the new kit for the first time during the second leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-final against Paris Saint-Germain. A move with very few precedents—if any. Traditionally, a new jersey is launched during the final match of the season, which for Bayern Munich will coincide with the presentation of the Meisterschale following their Bundesliga 2026/27 triumph. However, with the 2026 World Cup forcing an accelerated timeline, the Bavarian club has chosen to capitalize on football’s grandest stage to showcase the new kit.
From an aesthetic standpoint, tradition is once again honored through the iconic red, here reinterpreted with a contemporary edge. A tone-on-tone approach creates a pattern of vertical striping across the front, echoing the porcelain cockade featured in the club’s crest. Details appear in white, while the collar introduces a distinctive twist with a subtle V-slit that seamlessly intersects with the overall pattern.
