This Borussia Mönchengladbach Reebok football shirt, the away kit from the 1995/96 season, belongs to a transitional era for one of German football's great historic clubs: having been a European powerhouse in the seventies with five Bundesliga titles and two UEFA Cups, the club in the mid-nineties was going through a phase of identity reconstruction, settled in the middle of the table in a Bundesliga dominated by Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund, yet maintaining its base of loyal fans and its green and white identity intact while awaiting better times. The design follows the away aesthetic of the era, with the straight cut and fabric characteristic of Reebok during its time as a manufacturer of European football kits in the nineties, a brief but visually very recognizable period that sparks interest among collectors of both German football and the brand. It is a size L, without a number or nameset, in its clean collector's version, and is a unique piece.
