Unveiled under the campaign header ‘United Through History’, Werder Bremen have kicked off their 125th anniversary by revealing a special edition jersey at an exclusive event that brought together legends of the club alongside current players.
In 1899, exactly 125 years ago, Werder was founded in the "Kuhhirte". And so this special location served as the perfect backdrop for an equally special celebratory event that gathered legends – both former and current players of the club – for the unveiling of an exclusive 125 years Werder anniversary jersey. The kit will be debuted by both the men’s and women’s teams when they play against 1. FC Heidenheim and TSG Hoffenheim respectively on the weekend of 10 February.
The jersey itself is presented in a deep green with a tonal graphic of the founding logo from 1899. That crest also features on the right side of the chest, opposite the current crest on the left side, below which sits "1899-2024". The Hummel branding graciously takes up a central position in a deep tonal green, as does the sponsor, blending in with the overall design and not detracting from the overall aesthetics.
Werder legends Hans Schulz, Thomas Schaaf, Marco Bode, Frank Baumann, Dieter Eilts, Ailton, Mirko Votava and Nelson Valdez returned to the "Kuhhirte" and met current Bundesliga players Marco Friedl, Marvin Ducksch, Jens Stage and Lina Hausicke among others. During this event, the new jersey was present along with the accompanying extensive anniversary retro collection.
The Werder Bremen anniversary jersey, which comes in a high-quality anniversary box, will be available at werder.de/shop and also in the WERDER Fan World in the wohninvest WESERSTADION.
