Today adidas launched the FC Bayern Munich third kit for the 2016/17 season, paying tribute to the club’s Bavarian roots as they aim for more Bundesliga and UEFA Champions League glory in the forthcoming campaign.

The new third kit is white with silver accents, in a nod to the club’s European success, and is completed with a burgundy collar. The adidas three stripes have been moved from the shoulder to the side panels and the sleeves feature a subtle diamond pattern. The diamond pattern is echoed in the centre of the club’s crest and is a replication of the same pattern which appears on the flag of Bavaria, to showcase the club’s regional heritage.

The shirt also features the Bayern Munich motto “Mia san mia,” which translates as “We are who we are,” on the inside of the shirt’s collar.

The new kit is now available in the FC Bayern Munich online store, the adidas online shop (www.adidas.com/soccer) as well as in all FCB-Fan-Shops and in further retail.
