Bayern Munich is the most popular football club in the Bundesliga and one of the most successful ones in the history of football.
FC Bayern was founded in 1900. Meaning “Bavaria”, Bayern wanted to use the Bavarian white and blue colors; however, due to the impossibility of purchasing blue shorts, the club had to settle for black shorts.
In 1906, Bayern merged with Munchner SC. Bayern’s name and white shirts lived on, but the color of the shorts changed to a dark shade of red.
A bitter fact to know is that the club was ridiculed by the rivals because of the red shorts, as the players were mocked about menstruating.
After a few changes, Bayern Munich finally decided to use red shirts and red shorts with white trims. Before that, red was worn in away matches; however, when it became the color of home kits, white began to be the color of away shirts.
