Bayern Munich supporters may have another shirt to add to their wish lists. A leaked design for a Bayern Munich 2026 retro kit has emerged, showing a bold red-and-blue diamond pattern that draws on the club’s identity and its home stadium. The jersey is expected to arrive in late 2025 or early 2026.
A design rooted in club and stadium
The shirt’s standout feature is an all-over diamond motif in the club’s familiar red and blue. According to the leak, the pattern references both the Bayern crest and the illuminated panels on the exterior of the Allianz Arena. The result is a look that feels connected to Bayern’s visual history while remaining distinct from the current kit range.
Adding to the retro character, the jersey carries adidas’ Trefoil logo rather than the modern performance mark. The Trefoil has become a familiar signal of adidas’ heritage-inspired releases, and its presence here reinforces the throwback direction of the design.
Collar question remains open
Two versions of the shirt have been spotted in leaked images. One features a blue collar, while the other has a white finish. It is not yet clear which variation will be the one sold at retail, leaving supporters to speculate about the final production version.
A small “FCB” detail sits beneath the collar, giving the jersey a custom touch that ties it directly to the club. Beyond that, the leaked imagery has provided a clear view of the overall aesthetic without confirming the full technical specifications or the complete retail lineup.
Timing and context
The retro shirt is reported to be separate from the main 2025/26 kit collection, which already includes home, away and third shirts as well as the annual Oktoberfest-inspired design. That means Bayern’s wardrobe for the season could grow by one more entry before the campaign is out.
For now, fans cannot purchase the jersey, and no official confirmation has been issued. The expected launch window of late 2025 or early 2026 leaves room for the final design to be confirmed closer to release.
On the pitch, Bayern’s current squad continues to draw attention, with Harry Kane among the players expected to deliver goals as the team competes for silverware. Off the pitch, the club’s merchandise output remains prolific, and this latest leak suggests another option is on the horizon for supporters who follow kit releases closely.
