Bayern 27-28 Home Kit With Purple - How It Could Work
To see exactly how this unexpected palette could look on the pitch, Kit Creator launched a dedicated design competition. The response was massive, with more than 600 designers entering their unique concepts to experiment with the future colorway.
Looking at the submissions, it becomes clear that the color scheme can actually work incredibly well if applied correctly. The key to a successful design is ensuring the purple is used for detailing, rather than competing with the main red base.
