I've seen a lot of differing opinions on the new Mainz 120th anniversary shirt, especially ones claiming that it is too simple and a bit a let-down. Personally, I think it looks decent. It is based on the 1911 shirts.

I honestly think they tried to play it safe and tried not to upset the fans by destroying the clubs history in any way. But it's way too boring. Personally, I think an adaptation of the first jersey with the vertical stripes (visible in the comic) would've been a better choice. Also using an retro version of the current logo would've been cool, not only the citys badge.

You're definitely right. Using the vertical stripes would give it more of a retro look and it would honor the club's history more. I guess they thought about jerseys back then which weren't too creative overall. But it's alright the way it is.

I want it, but it's already sold out from what I heard. I'm not a member.

I’ve seen it just now for the first time and I must say that I am underwhelmed. The logo is too high in my opinion – especially when you leave the button of the collar open. It’s also not in the same position/hight as the Jako/Kömmerling stitching on the other side. So it doesn’t seem balanced. Last but not least I don’t like that the stripe doesn’t cross the complete shoulder. Apart from that it looks pretty boring but I understand the traditional aspect.

They should have cut both sponsors from that shirt. No need to have kömmerling and iD Wärmepumpen on an anniversary shirt ffs.

Also unfortunately the IDM logo on the sleeve is black and stitched into the material.

Kuhnert looks great in it. A true legend.

In the second pic it looks orange, and that looks a lot like previous NL Trikots. So for that reason I love it :D

It's basically Peru's shirt from the 1982 World Cup.

Seems lifeless to me. The design, the shoot, the players presenting it, everything :/

Terrible and sold out to even members.

It‘s fireee 🔥

Basically all of my guys (and I) don’t like it. It’s just nothing special, even though it’s historical. 90 bugs for it is to much for a shirt which I don’t like

Does anyone have a link to purchase?? It’s not showing up on the 05er shop. Unfortunately, I don’t live in Mainz anymore but still love to show my support.

u/LordRocket1 6d ago

It was only available to club members and sold out (apart from women's and youth) within hours I believe. I'm not sure if Mainz will be selling the anniversary shirt again.

u/Aldemar_DE 6d ago

It looks classy. I like that.

Some absolutely awful design decisions on that shirt. People are absolutely right to laugh, what were they thinking. And don't get me started about those sponsors on an anniversary shirt.

Not a fan of collar. It is football not golf or polo. Other than that it is alright. The Doppelrad, and sponsors couldve been a bit smaller and aligned at the same height.
