jersey with a special message
To mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month – Pink October – we are presenting a very special jersey with FC Bayern Women and adidas. Together with Allianz and DKMS, the jersey is intended to raise awareness of breast cancer prevention. The pink details are a strong symbol for the fight against breast cancer – by women, for women.
Lena Gercke: "I am so proud to raise awareness of such an important issue with this jersey."

In addition to the pink details, the jersey also features the ribbon - the international symbol in the fight against breast cancer. Each back number bears the pink ribbon, sending a strong sign of support.
