A striking look has been achieved with a town map of Leverkusen on the dark blue shirt with the Bayer 04 logo fitting in perfectly with the design. The logo of Bayer AG is on the chest. The left sleeve has a logo of the Bayer Sports Family in addition to the Castore kit supplier logo. The white Werkself lettering on the neck is also eye-catching.
The Bayer Sports Family matchday against Mainz will see the flag-wavers, TSV athletes at the full house at the BayArena, and the mascot Brian the Lion wearing the shirts.
The limited edition shirt, which every Bayer 04 Club member can order up to two of, is made of 100% polyester. It is available in adult sizes S to 5XL and costs €84.90.

The first Bayer Sports Family matchday in September 2023 against Darmstadt was a complete success. The wide range of participation activities in and around the stadium, the presentation of the different team sports and tributes to the athletes were rounded off in style by a 5-1 home win for the Werkself. Bayer 04 fans can now look forward to the next Bayer Sports Family matchday – with the exceptional highlight of this limited edition shirt.
The Bayer Sports Family:
As part of the Bayer Sports Family, Bayer 04 are moving closer together to the Bayer sports clubs and Bayer AG. This historic connection is being revived with joint events like the Bayer Sports Family matchday and the Bayer Sports Family week. Bayer 04 will provide updates on the different team and individual sports, for example with important competitions and events. And the athletes from the Giants, Werkselfen, Volleys and Co. will regularly be integrated into our reporting: From the Werkself Magazin via Werkself TV and the Bayer 04 app through to the social media channels with over ten million followers. The highlight is the content format Bayer Sports Family duel where Bayer 04 first team players compete against TSV Bayer athletes in their disciplines.
This special event showed once again how strong Bayer 04 are as a team: As part of ‘BarmeniaGothaer gives joy’, the Werkself players Edmond Tapsoba, Ibrahim Maza and Christian Kofane supported the sale of individually designed T-shirts for a good cause at the Fanwelt on Thursday. Several hundred fans came to take part in the charity campaign. Leverkusen's main sponsor BarmeniaGothaer donated the proceeds to the Fondation Edmond Tapsoba, which helps people in Tapsoba's home country of Burkina Faso in their challenging everyday lives.

The result is a 45-minute documentary about Tapsoba’s long journey from Africa via Portugal to Leverkusen, which offers extraordinary, one-off and emotional insights.
