Schalke will debut their new kits in today's friendly against VfB Hüls at 18:00 CET. We have not gotten a look at their new shirt sponsor, which is yet to be unveiled. For the time being, they will continue to wear Vivawest.
Schalke 22-23 Home Kit
Here is the new Adidas Schalke home jersey for 2022-2023.
The Adidas FC Schalke 2022-2023 home shirt comes in the club's traditional shade of royal blue. White is applied for all the logos and Adidas' branding on the shoulders.
The piping around the blue collar is also white, as are the small side insets under the sleeves.
Schalke's new kit was not designed directly by Adidas, but rather created using miteam. This is because the club are not directly sponsored by Adidas, instead having a partnership with 11teamsports.
For reference, we can look at fellow German clubs like Nürnberg and Düsseldorf, who both receive Adidas kits through 11teamsports. They get a combination of miteam and teamwear jerseys.
The Adidas FC Schalke 22-23 home shirt will be available to buy starting July 15. We also think Schalke might go back to having two-year life cycles for their kits, as this was something they did throughout their entire time with Adidas.
