Bundesliga club Fortuna Düsseldorf today released their 2019-2020 home kit. It is set to be debuted in the last match of the season next week against Hannover 96.
"The coming season will be dominated by the 125th anniversary - so will our home jersey. Under the motto "Tradition" we will play our home games again in white", explains Fortuna's Director Strategy and Business Development Dr. Alexander Steinforth. "Personally, I would like to thank uhlsport for the opportunity to design this jersey individually again - as well as all Fortuna employees who contributed to its creation."
Unser neues Heimtrikot erneut im Zeichen der Tradition 🔴⚪️
Als Vorbild für das Design diente dabei das #F95-Trikot von 1982 bis 1985. Schon im letzten Heimspiel #F95H96 werden unsere Jungs mit dem neuen Heimtrikot auflaufen 🤗@uhlsportDE @henkel_de @Bundesliga_DE pic.twitter.com/NsdAJkbwbB— Fortuna Düsseldorf (@f95) 12. Mai 2019Düsseldorf 19-20 Home Kit
Below you can see new Düsseldorf 19-20 home jersey.
As in the successful current season, the home jersey for the next Bundesliga year is once again be dedicated to "tradition", one of the core values of the Fortuna DNA.
In the style of the Fortuna jersey from 1982 to 1985, the new Fortuna Düsseldorf 19-20 home jersey comes in a classic design. The basic colour white dominates the jersey, which is set off in the shoulder area with a red fabric insert. The collar is designed as a red turtleneck with a rubberized button, similar to the model from the 1980s.
Below the crest there seems to be a text referencing the club's founding year and the 125th anniversary that will be celebrated next year. The F95 lettering is embroidered on the neck - also in gold.
Inside the jersey there is a photo of legendary Fortuna Düsseldorf player Manfred Bockenfeld as well as the lettering "Kämpfen und Siegen seit 1895" ("Fighting and winning since 1895").
White shorts and socks round off the fresh look.
Melanie Steinhilber, Managing Director of uhlsport GmbH, adds: "For Fortuna Düsseldorf, a high level of fan identification with the home jersey is very important. As a true traditional club, Fortuna provides great impulses in this respect and we are happy to have been able to implement the joint concept. Now we hope that this new and historically inspired Fortuna jersey will give the team what its name means: luck and success for the new season in the Bundesliga".
