Update: Arminia Bielefeld has announced the winning design for its 120th anniversary kit after a public vote. Out of nearly 500 entries from more than 250 designers, the winning submission, created by a fan named Arthur, won with 39.2% of the votes. The kit will be available to buy in April 2025.
Arthur, who has a passion for media creation and design, expressed his excitement and pride over his design being chosen for such a special occasion. He mentioned that he has previously created graphics for the club, but this was his first time designing a jersey for an official release.
I'm so happy that my design won! Media creation and design have been a hobby of mine for a long time. As an Armine, I used to create Arminia graphics from time to time. In recent years, the club has used them several times. I'm particularly pleased that I've now also created the jersey for such an occasion. I'm curious to see whether the club will also be inspired by the other designs and whether one or two fans will see his design on the pitch in the future.
Arminia Bielefeld will celebrate its 120th anniversary in May next year with a special-edition kit. Club supporters were asked to send in their designs, from which the club selected four that are now up for a vote among club members to decide the final design.
