We showed you the leaked home and away shirts back in June, and now the DFB officially unveiled the new EURO 2012 home kit for the German national team, which will be available here.
Germany can qualify for EURO 2012 on Friday with a home victory in Gelsenkirchen against Austria, but it will be worn for the first time on 11 November.
"Having a new jersey is always something special," says Philipp Lahm, the captain.
"The new design is very elegant, and the fabric feels really good. Visually, we are already well prepared for the European Championships."
Thanks to Andre,Heinrich,Clayton,Bastian and Jian

err no its not. take a closer look
ehhhhhhhh......NO
I disagree, I like subtle touches like that...
But I think the green away one is horrible, according to the leaked link above.
But this one is not ugly.
Wow, you are a complete idiot, do you realize the stripes are the colors of the German flag. How would not having the stripes make it look better? It would barely represent Germany without them. You people are stupid.
Second - does the badge have those three segmented lines due to adidas? If so - shame on them!
Thirdly - why does the bottom colour piping look gold not yellow??!
Firstly - I´m not so sure
Second - When the three stars represent the three world cups, the the segmented lines represent the three euro cups!?!
Thirdly - The flag colour is black, red, gold
In answer to your Second point, the DFB (German FA) changed the badge back in 2004, adding an extra ring with the three bars representing the colours of the flag. In the 04, 06 and 08 versions these were coloured, and on the 10 badge the whole thing was gold; adidas have presumably made the whole thing black this time to reinforce the retro feel (the home kit is similar to the 86, the upcoming away the 72).
Cheers - nice info there
It`s black because it is only a EURO and not a World Cup - So the three stars this time only represent the three european titles of 1972, 1980 and 1996.
FIFA does not allow continental titles extra added to the logo (only if the become part of the logo) - So painting the stars and the logo black is actually a "trick" to hide that fact.
'I should realise'? Sorry I simply wasn't studying German badges for the past few years!
than why is the Spielführer band black red yellow??
I can only guess that the colour on the shirt has been made slightly more gold than the flag (which the armband is based on) to show up better on the white of the shirt- it's also interesting to note that the middle (red) line appears to be much more scarlet, probably for the same reason, so technically it is wrong. Maybe the shirt is more metallic in construction, which alters the colour sometimes. Dunno, will have to see it 'in the flesh'.
True, but you need to know that there is SPECIFICATIONS given by the german federal government on the German Flag...
I think it will be best to follow those specifications when designing something "flag-oriented"...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Germany
Black: Jet Black, HTML HEXADECIMAL CODE #000000
Red: Traffic Red, HTML HEXADECIMAL CODE #FF0000
Gold: Cadmium Yellow, HTML HEXADECIMAL CODE #FFCC00
So the "gold" of the official flag color specifications is not "metallic gold", but "colored yellow"... As the wikipedia page states a 1968 quote of Arnold Rabbow: "he German colours are black-red-yellow but they are called black-red-gold"
I didn't say the flag was NOT red, Black and Gold - I simply made out it had to be either Gold or Yellow
One being right, one being wrong
Embarrassed? You should be.
Wow.
We all grew up.
or no, it's perfekt in that way, but I'm definitely waiting for the great green one.
I hope it will be the version that was shown months ago...

I can't think of a German kit that hasn't been excellent
Erm... What about the USA 94 kit??
The Euro 2000 kit with green sleeves was poor, although their dire performance at that tournament might cloud my judgement.
It's a tradition that germany play their away games in green.
It's very symmetrical but a little blah. Not a cup winning jersey. A polo design like the French Nike away shirt in German colours would look fantastic.
And the Euro 2004 jerseys actually changed the 3 stars from gold to silver, rightly representing all the Euro wins.
leather effect? lederhosen?
The shorts are brilliant IMO, they add a nice touch.
nek your spot on them shorts are a bit kinky
This is terrible!
What's with the stripes on the shirt's front?
Also, I really don't like the collar.
The shorts look okay - except for those needless stripes on the numbers. The socks seem fine too.
But that jersey - ugggh!
They should have left it without the stripes and with a better collar, and this would have been a very nice, classy Germany home jersey. A lot like Germany's traditional home jerseys from the 60s and 70s.
I'm definitely not gonna buy this one!
Hopefully, we'll be playing successful football that's nice to watch, anyway!
As a Germany supporting Englishman since 2000, I like it, but yes, if the leaked away shirt from June is true, that'll be great- glad to see them back in green!
Don't worry about the football, will be successful AND nice to watch!
Glory hunting is unacceptable at club level - international level - vomit inducingly ridiculous.
Glory hunting? I started supporting Germany at Euro 2000, when they were worse even than England. FYI- German players are paid less than English, but produce better football, and don't whinge about 'other factors' when they lose. It's not glory hunting as you put it, it's being realistic. I would rather support a team that takes pride in it's football, it's anthem and it's country, loses as a team, and wins as a team. The England team is full of prima donnas, over rated, overpaid, and tactically naive 'players'. Plus, supporting England to a fervour of nationalism encourages rascism, xenophobia, and intolerance. That answer your question/statement?
You should go hang yourself right now. Seriously.
Nope, 'fraid not. I shall be here for a long time...
1994, 1998 and 2000 were terrible...Quote:

FIFA should DEMAND they to use tukcked shirt like in the 90's
hey new river plate t shirt!!
http://www.riverplate.com/institucion/Camisetas/11002-los-hinchas-compraron-masivamente-la-nueva-camiseta-de-river-110.html
Yes they resemble a bit to nike's typeface used between '04-'06.
Are the shorts made from some shiny nylon/pvc material?
As stated before, the green away shirt is erection inducing beauty!
In heraldry/vexillology is Gold=Yellow.
You pedantic, nitpicking swine!
Almost as bad as the plastic Ireland team who cap anyone who's grandad once drank a pint of Guiness
You don't think it renders the whole point of national football redundant?
Well, actually those players are all German, they were born here, grew up here, played for German clubs, youth national teams and so on. In our modern times nationality should rather be defined by identity than by parentage. Cacau even did a test every immigrant has to do, when he wants to become German, so he truly identifies with this country in my opinion.
One might even think you just envy those succesful Germans ;)
Just because something was born in a stable doesn't make it a horse.
? It's now racist to say that international players should be from the country they play for?
Complete rubbish. The guy never said anything against a particular race that was discriminatory. Miroslav Klose - born in Poland, to Polish parents - plays for Germany. Ridiculous.
It's because just you were born somewhere doesn't automatically make you that countries identity. Granted with Cacau is ridiculous, but with klose, even though born in poland his father is an ethinic german, and brought up there, same with podolski, born in poland but grew up in germany from young. Ozil was born in germany so that twat who only sees that ozil is turkish is a tool.
OK,OK.
Klose, Podolski- born in Poland. Klose moved to Germany in his early teens, Podolski was still in nappies.
Cacau- moved to Germany when he was 19, and sings the anthem.
Gomez, Ozil, Khedira- born in GERMANY.
All of these players have a RIGHT to represent Germany. Quick question for you- do you know that England made overtures to Aaron Hunt and Lewis Holtby, both born in Germany with an English parent, before they were capped by Germany? Please check your facts before you condemn.
But the 82 Mio Fans that celebrate the superb football and shiny future are.
These players are german, more german that all these irish/scottish players with grandparents from these countries are irish or scottish
The future is bright and the Germans have very very good chances to lift 1-2 trophies in the next 8 years. And there are even better players coming through the ranks..and they are even blonde(Götze, Bender...............
Envy and jealousy is the most honest way to show respect
so personally i see that he has EVERY right to play for Germany or Turkey.
Same thing for Nuri Sahin, who chose to play for Turkey.
Now next player to follow is young star Emre Can, but i guess he will play for germany as he played in german youth teams.
Japanese national team's next jersey won't worn at any comptition but only at the world cup qualifying games.
well.. the last part of the word,haha!
