Third Shirt 2025/26

The design

Styled in blue and cyan, the shirt is an artistic nod to Leverkusen's identity as the 'Farbenstadt' (city of colour). The shirt's front features a graphic of overlapping crosses, creating a modern, stylized interpretation of the historic Bayer Cross.

The details

The collar is embellished with 'Werkself' lettering, while the traditional club crest is placed on the left side of the chest. The kit features main sponsor BarmeniaGothaer on the front and Niedax Group on the left sleeve. Constructed from 100% recycled polyester, the shirt utilizes moisture-wicking NB Dry technology.

The story

Developed with New Balance, the 2025/26 third strip is designed to bridge the club's 120-year history with a contemporary look. The project serves as an expression of local identity, combining historic industrial symbols with the vibrant nature of the modern city.
