Düsseldorf 24-25 Katana Kit
This is the new Adidas Fortuna Düsseldorf Katana jersey for 24-25.
The Adidas Düsseldorf 2024-2025 Katana jersey is predominantly black with red motifs, strongly representing the characteristics of Japanese culture.
A katana is a traditional Japanese sword known for its long, curved blade. It is typically constructed with a sharp, single-edged edge and a distinctive tsuba (hand guard) made of metal or other materials. Katanas are particularly famous for their cutting ability and elegant design. In summary, the katana is not only a weapon but also a cultural symbol deeply rooted in Japanese history.
Düsseldorf 24-25 Daruma Kit
Check out Adidas' Düsseldorf 2024-2025 Daruma jersey below.
The Adidas Düsseldorf 24-25 Daruma football shirt has an identical design to the 'Kanata' shirt with a change in color. It is predominantly blue with white details and red logos.
A daruma is a traditional Japanese figure often used as a symbol of perseverance, determination and good luck. The figure is usually round, without arms or legs, and is traditionally made of papier-mâché or wood. A traditional custom surrounding the daruma is that when one person buys a daruma figure, they paint one eye and set a goal or wish. When the goal is achieved, the other eye is colored to symbolize success and show gratitude.
