FC Bayern Women, adidas, and LeGer launch special edition jersey for breast cancer awareness.
Raising awareness against breast cancer
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, FC Bayern Women and adidas, in collaboration with LeGer by Lena Gercke, have unveiled a special edition jersey aimed at promoting breast cancer prevention. The initiative is supported by Allianz and the German Breast Cancer Society, highlighting the importance of early detection and awareness.
According to FC Bayern deputy CEO Michael Diederich:
“FC Bayern is more than a sports club and regularly tackles social questions. We’re delighted about the collaboration with our partners Allianz, adidas and Lena Gercke in tackle the important issue of breast cancer prevention, and the fact we can raise funds for DKMS together.”
The jersey features vibrant play on colors and check design that captures the essence of the women's game. Pink accents highlight the campaign for breast cancer awareness, aligning with the Pink October initiative.
Alongside the jersey, a coordinated collection has been created, incorporating a small heart motif inspired by elements of the jersey itself.
FC Bayern Women will debut the special edition kit during their away game against Wolfsburg on October 12 (5:45 pm CEST).
As in previous years, the pink ribbon, symbolizing breast cancer awareness, is prominently displayed, with each player's number featuring the ribbon. The jerseys and collection are now available in all FC Bayern stores and online.
