New Bayern Munich Home Kit 2010/2011

Champions League 2010 finalists Bayern Munich have unveiled their new home kit for the 2010/2011 season, and its a nice stripy number befitting of, potentially, European champions.

Manufactured by Adidas, hence featuring the white tricolor stripes down the shoulders, Bayern have gone for a red and white striped outfit to emulate a design they wore back in the 1970s – the 1972/1973 season to be precise.

I like it. The T-Mobile logo fits snugly into the design and is neither too over-powering nor garishly out of place (hello, Bolton Wanderers!). I’m generally a fan of the Adidas stripes anyway, but I think the way they’ve integrated their trademark into a retro design is also pretty well executed. Its neat, tidy and definitely Bayern.

Given the red and white colours for shirt and shorts it is perhaps a little odd they didn’t continue the theme through to the socks, going for black instead, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. And just look how happy Arjen Robben looks in them!

Overall I give it 8/10. Your rating?
