Bundesliga Club RB Leipzig has unveiled a striking new “Glow in the Dark” special-edition jersey in collaboration with sportswear giant PUMA, combining advanced performance technology with a visually distinctive design. The club said the new kit strengthens the bond between the team, the city, and its supporters while pushing creative boundaries in football apparel.
The jersey’s standout feature is its glow-in-the-dark detailing, activated after exposure to UV light. Fluorescent elements—including the PUMA logo, the RB Leipzig crest, the double bull emblem, and lettering such as “YCDA” and “RB Leipzig”—illuminate in low light, creating a dramatic visual effect under stadium conditions. The concept is promoted under the tagline “Energized by Light. Activated at Night.”
RB Leipzig will debut the special kit on February 21 during their home match against Borussia Dortmund. Club officials expect the nighttime unveiling to amplify the jersey’s visual impact in front of a packed crowd, making it a centerpiece moment for fans and players alike.

Beyond aesthetics, the shirt incorporates PUMA’s Ultraweave technology, designed to deliver ultra-lightweight performance and durability. The kit features breathable mesh zones, moisture-wicking fibers, and an ergonomic fit aimed at supporting the demands of modern professional football without adding extra weight from the fluorescent components.
The jersey’s base pattern draws inspiration from a stylized map of Leipzig’s districts, blending street layouts and architectural motifs into an abstract urban design. According to the club, the concept reflects the city’s diversity and energy without singling out any one neighbourhood, positioning the shirt as a symbolic representation of Leipzig’s identity.
The “Glow in the Dark” jersey will go on sale from February 20 through official club stores, redbullshop.com, and PUMA retail channels. Purchases made via RB Leipzig outlets will arrive in premium packaging that includes fluorescent stickers, reinforcing the glow-themed presentation of the limited-edition release.
