Schalke 25-26 150 Years of Gelsenkirchen Kit

This is the new Adidas Schalke 04 150 Years of Gelsenkirchen jersey for 2025-26.

The Adidas S04 2025-26 150 Years of Gelsenkirchen shirt is inspired by the traditional dark green associated with Gelsenkirchen and features a distinctive long-sleeve design. It is based on the Custom Squadra 25 template from Adidas Locker Room.

The Adidas Schalke 04 2025-2026 150 Years of Gelsenkirchen jersey is defined by an intricate all-over pattern derived from the symbols of the city’s coat of arms, reinterpreted as a modern graphic motif across the fabric. This subtle yet rich detailing reinforces the heritage behind the jersey.

On the chest, the connection between club and city is expressed clearly: beneath the Schalke crest sits the official city emblem, while above it appears the white embroidered adidas logo. The city’s historic first seal in vivid red is printed on the back of the neck, adding a powerful archival touch to the design.

Each player’s shirt also includes a unique tribute: the names and map outlines of 18 districts of Gelsenkirchen are printed on the sleeves, such as Buer, Erle, Horst, Rotthausen, Bismarck, and Schalke-Nord. This feature celebrates the full breadth of the city and the community that unites behind the club.
