Update: RB Leipzig’s special-edition kit, dubbed the "Leipzig on Fire" kit, was debuted in their home match against second-placed Union Berlin. Despite high expectations, Leipzig suffered a disappointing 1-2 loss, marking their first home loss of the season.
The kit was not popular among many due to the 🔥 on the back ("Leipzig on 🔥") emoji on the back. It looked less interesting than in the launch pictures from the front, as only the sides had the fire design.
Bundesliga club Leipzig today presented their new limited-edition kit, "Leipzig on Fire", which will be worn in the match against Union Berlin this Saturday.
In case you missed it, Leipzig are set to switch kit suppliers from Nike to Puma in 2024.

RB Leipzig 22-23 Limited-Edition Kit
This is the new Nike RB Leipzig "Leipzig on Fire" limited-edition shirt for 22-23.
The Nike RB Leipzig 2022-2023 limited-edition shirt introduces a unique design in white with fiery graphics.
The theme of the Nike RB Leipzig 22-23 limited-edition shirt is "Leipzig on Fire", as can be seen from the text on the upper back, just below the collar. The look is inspired by a chant song by the Leipzig supporters to the melody of "Freed From Desire" by Gala Rizzatto.
In the case of the Nike RasenBallsport Leipzig 2022-23 special-edition shirt, the design is applied as a print on a blank Nike Park VII jersey (€23) rather than a bespoke production by Nike.
Available since February 10, the Nike Leipzig 2022-23 limited-edition jersey retails at €89.95. €30 from each sale will be donated to the victims of the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria. The club pledged to double the donation.
