Featuring Heavy Metal Festival Wacken's Foundation On The Front - Carl Zeiss Jena 17-18 Kits Released
The foundation of the world-famous heavy metal festival Wacken Open Air will have their logo on the kits of German 3. Liga club FC Carl Zeiss Jena, it has been announced by the club last week. The Wacken Foundation was founded by the organizers of the Wacken Festival and promotes bands and artists from the heavy metal scene.
The Wacken foundation is not a sponsor, as pointed out by the club, but gets the advertising space for free from the club backer and sponsor 'Heaven Shall Burn". The letter of the Thuringian heavy metal band "Heaven Shall Burn" will instead be found on the sleeves of the jerseys.

Adidas Germany 'Alternate History' 1992 Collection Leaked
Update - Friday, May 22, 2026: Thanks to our follower @Julifu90, we have an image of the t-shirt of the Adidas Germany EQT 1992 retro collection. It is set to be released in the coming days.
We have the first image of a unique new Adidas Germany retro jacket, showcasing an intriguing new approach from the sportswear brand.
While the design instantly evokes strong nostalgia for the 1990s, this upcoming release is actually an "alternate history" creation. Despite its highly authentic vintage appearance and period-accurate details, this specific track jacket never actually existed in the official Adidas catalogues during the 1990s, making it a brand new addition to their retro-focused lifestyle collection.
To achieve this convincing old-school aesthetic, Adidas has utilized their classic 1992 template as the structural foundation for the design. The garment features a vibrant green base that heavily nods to Germany's traditional away kits of the era. The colors of the German national flag are cleverly completed on the sleeves through large geometric blocks that also recreate the 3 stripes.
The same jacket will also be released for Spain and other Adidas national teams.
