Ruhr-Universität Bochum scarf

VfL Bochum is one of the most representative clubs of the Ruhrgebiet, the industrial Ruhr region that holds the highest density of football clubs in Germany and one of the most authentic football cultures in Europe. Founded in 1848—one of the oldest founding dates in German football—Bochum has alternated between periods in the Bundesliga and seasons in the 2. Bundesliga, always maintaining a working-class, neighborhood identity that connects it viscerally to its city. The most unique feature of this football scarf is the presence on the reverse side of the Ruhr-Universität Bochum—the Ruhr University—one of Germany's largest universities, founded in 1962, whose connection with VfL reflects the institutional fabric of a city where the club and the university are the two most important points of reference for its identity. A piece that unites sport and academic culture in a single garment, something unusual in football merchandise.

Practically new double-sided football scarf with a different design on each side. Side 1: full name "VfL Bochum 1848" in white on a blue background with the crest on both ends. Side 2: "Ruhr-Universität Bochum" text.
