Within the red panels, a precise striped pattern echoes the roof structure of the BayArena. Inspired by the stadium’s unique architecture, the shirt features a clean and structured design without detracting from its elegant overall look. The Bayer 04 logo in the club’s 4C colours also adorns the chest.
“The cross motif serves as a reminder that Bayer 04 is more than just a club,” says Markus Breglec, chief marketing and innovation officer at Bayer 04. “It reflects a shared identity rooted in courage and embodied by generations of fans and players alike.”
The shirt has been developed using New Balance’s latest performance technology. The design is based on an advanced performance chassis with integrated jacquard technology, ensuring breathability, comfort and shape retention. The jersey features a specially developed fabric made from 100% recycled polyester, integrated mesh panels and an innovative chassis construction to meet the demands of the modern game.
The new home shirt is available in children’s sizes (S–XL) for €69.90 and in adult sizes (S–5XL) for €94.90. The women’s-fit shirt is also available in sizes S–2XL for €94.90.

The Elite jersey is made from a high-quality blend of 60% recycled polyester, 37% polyester and 3% elastane; it offers exceptional comfort and optimum functionality during sporting activities, and is available in sizes S–3XL for €139.90.

Of course, the new shirt can be personalised with the name and number of your favourite player – whether male or female – or with a customised name.
