VfB Stuttgart Champions League Away Football Shirt 2026/27

Celebrate VfB Stuttgart's return to the UEFA Champions League with the VfB Stuttgart Champions League Away Football Shirt 2026/27, a special European jersey created by JAKO.

The shirt takes inspiration from one of the most memorable designs in VfB Stuttgart's international history: the red away jersey worn during the 1988 UEFA Cup first-round away match against Hungarian club Bányász Tatabánya. The new 2026/27 Champions League away shirt brings that historic design back in a modern interpretation.

Historic Red VfB Stuttgart Design

The standout feature is the red base, combined with a distinctive woven-style pattern inspired by the original 1988 European shirt.

Rather than simply reproducing the vintage jersey, JAKO has modernised the historical design while retaining its most recognisable character, creating a shirt that connects VfB Stuttgart's European past with its new Champions League campaign.

Inspired by the 1988 UEFA Cup Shirt

The inspiration behind the shirt comes from a particularly memorable chapter in VfB history.

After the 1988 match in Tatabánya, VfB players gave their shirts to supporters in the away section. The club went on to enjoy an impressive UEFA Cup campaign that eventually took them all the way to the final against SSC Napoli.

That story has now been incorporated into the 2026/27 Champions League collection, making this more than a standard away jersey.

Retro JAKO Details

The shirt features a specially designed retro-style shirt number together with JAKO's retro logo, giving the modern Champions League jersey an authentic vintage-inspired appearance.

The official UEFA Champions League version also features the competition badge on the sleeve.

Recycled Performance Material

The jersey is made from 100% polyester from recycled sources, combining the historical visual concept with a modern football-shirt construction.

A Special Shirt for European Nights

Whether you're supporting VfB Stuttgart in the Champions League, collecting historic-inspired football shirts or simply looking for a distinctive European jersey, the VfB Stuttgart Champions League Away Shirt 2026/27 brings together club history, retro styling and modern football culture.
