The Bayer 04 third kit in black has different elements of the Farbenstadt (description of city of Leverkusen based on dye and chemical production in the nineteenth century) Leverkusen across the kit in graffiti form.
The jersey has a unisex cut. The Bayer 04 logo stands out in cyan blue on the left of the chest with the kit supplier logo of the top British brand Castore stitched in cyan on the right. Werkself is on the collar in cyan. The main sponsor Barmenia is also on the chest in cyan blue lettering.
The third kit costs €64.90 in children's sizes (134-164) and €89.90 in adult sizes (S-5XL). The jersey is only available in the normal version and there is no professional version.
All three new Bayer 04 kits for the 2024/25 season are now on sale. There has been a staggering demand for Werkself home and away kits in the first days and weeks, which has been much bigger than expected. Bayer 04 and our suppliers Castore are working flat out to complete deliveries as soon as possible and thereby satisfy the huge interest of the fans in the jerseys.







The third kit is available now at the Bayer 04 shop in Wiesdorf and at the online shop. The jersey will be available at the fan shop at the BayArena from 10.00 CEST on Thursday. Club members are entitled to a 10% Club discount on the jersey.
