The team under head coach Gerardo Seoane will go in search of goals on the road in black in the coming season. But the Werkself players will not have to manage without the home end: The stylish design of the new away kit is based on the sea of flags of the Bayer 04 fans in the North Stand.
The third shirt for the new season is white with red and black accents of colour. As with the home shirt, the away and third shirts have the word Werkself on the back of the shirt.
