1991-92
Synopsis
A huge change as the arrival of the adidas Equipment area saw blue return to the home strip for the first time since the 1970s. While the change kit followed the design of the home, it stuck with the traditional white and red.
With the large stripes causing issues with the red team name on the back of the away shirt, another version with black markings was used.
1993-94
Synopsis
An evolution of the previous style, with the addition of blue sleeves stripes below the Opel logo. The shorts were almost identical to the 1991-93 sets, but were now stitched on and only had a white outline at the sides.
1998-99
2000-01
The home kit was unchanged from 1999-2000 and while the new change strip might look to have have too much red, there do not appear to have been any issues. In European games, the number was housed in a white box while away to Paris Saint-Germain the home socks were used.
In the first Champions League group stage, the normal home kit was worn but a new strip was introduced for the second group stage. It harked back to the crew-neck style of Bayern’s European Cup three-in-a-row of 1974-76 and proved a lucky omen as they went all the way, defeating Valencia on penalties in the final.
The silver third kit was used against Arsenal and Manchester United during the European campaign – the Opel logo was now rendered in white while the names and numbers from the new red kit were used.
