The new design will be unveiled in Amsterdam, in the match against the Netherlands. It is the latest chapter in a 77-year partnership between adidas and the German Football Association (DFB).
The shirt features vertical gold lines made up of small diamonds, in keeping with the design of the current kits. According to adidas, the pattern symbolizes the more than 24,000 clubs that form the foundation of German football.
From 2027, the DFB will switch to Nike, which is expected to pay around €100 million per year under the deal. Adidas has not confirmed whether there will be any additional farewell before the sponsorship change.
