Puma has once again hit the mark with the ‘Borusser’ kit; just like with the design of Borussia Dortmund’s home kit, the design is stunning, featuring a colour known to the fans as ‘black’.
New Borussia Dortmund away jersey
What sets this jersey apart and defines it is the horizontal weave visible on the front. This metallic grey weave pays homage to the metal industry, which has been a symbol of the city of Dortmund for over 100 years.
The metallic detailing continues down the side of the collar, as well as on the sleeves, on the Puma logo and on those of the other sponsors. Furthermore, a detail that is always popular is the messaging on the inside of the jerseys; on this occasion, the message inside the collar reads: “110 Jahre, Gestern, Heute, Morgen Für immer Borussia Dortmund”, which means: “110 years – yesterday, today and tomorrow – always Borussia Dortmund”. This message is no coincidence, as on the 19th of December this year, the German club will celebrate its 110th anniversary. The date of foundation is also featured on the football socks, with ‘19’ on one sock and ‘09’ on the other. The socks are a real feast of detail, whilst also retaining the horizontal metallic stripes.
The technology used by Puma for this jersey is dryCELL, which is incorporated throughout the fabric and ensures optimal wicking of sweat and moisture, enhancing the garment’s comfort whilst preventing it from becoming heavier. The design also features raglan sleeves to enhance comfort.
In conclusion, just like Puma football boots, this kit boasts particularly high-quality materials and a superb finish. However, what really catches the eye is that, once again, they have provided the German side with one of the most striking and elegant jerseys in the entire Bundesliga. Will we finally see the ‘Borussers’ lift the trophy?
