Bayern Munich 1987-88 Jersey – The Commodore sponsor, a bygone era

1987-88. Bayern Munich wore the Commodore logo on their chest, the computer brand that defined an entire generation.

What this jersey represents

The 1987-88 Bayern Munich season was part of a period of almost permanent domination of German football. The Bavarian club was then a title-winning machine, a sportingly formidable management model, feared in the Bundesliga as well as on the European stage. It was also a pivotal era when professional football began to open up massively to major commercial sponsors – and Commodore, a giant of personal computing in the 80s, proudly sits on this shirt as a symbol of modernity and the economic power of the time.

On the field, Bayern could count on top-level players. Lothar Matthäus, then at the peak of his physical and technical form, dominated the midfield. Jürgen Kohler, Klaus Augenthaler in defense, and the indefatigable Dieter Hoeness in attack made this team a formidable collective. All under the guidance of a club whose DNA is based on high standards and winning, season after season.

Moments etched in this jersey

A Bundesliga title in sight
The 1987-88 season saw Bayern Munich finish as German champions, adding another star to an already exceptional list of honors. This jersey is therefore that of a consecrated team, not a random team struggling for survival.

Commodore, the sponsor that made history
Seeing the Commodore logo on a football jersey in 2024 is almost a temporal hallucination. This brand, which sold millions of Commodore 64s in European homes, chose Bayern to bear its colors — a rare, strong partnership, and now completely vanished from the face of the Earth.

An official reissue, a contemporary collector's item
This jersey is an official club reissue, produced for retro football fans who want to own a piece of that era without scouring flea markets for 30 years. Fidelity to the original design is the raison d'être of this type of piece — and it fulfills its mission.

Authentic vs. Reissue

An authentic vintage jersey from the 80s is a worn piece, washed dozens of times, that has survived decades of storage in boxes or wardrobes. It has a unique patina, a visible physical history, but also real fragilities — weakened fabric, cracked flocking, deformed embroidery. Finding it in good condition is often an exploit.

An official reissue like this, rated 8/10, offers the best of both worlds: the exact design of the 1987-88 season with the Commodore sponsor, in near-new condition, without the ravages of time. It's the rational choice for the collector who wants to display, wear, or frame — without the fear of further damage.

Vintage size guide

Even on a reissue inspired by 80s football, the cut might surprise you. Retro football jerseys are often cut differently from modern, ultra-fitted models. This model is offered in 3XL, a generous size that generally corresponds to current body types — but each brand has its own grids, and "vintage" cuts tend to be looser in the shoulders and shorter at the bottom.

Before ordering, take your measurements: chest circumference, shoulder width, torso length. Then compare them with the actual product measurements available in the product sheet. A vintage 3XL might correspond to a modern XL or XXL depending on the brand — it's better to check than regret.

Why have it in your collection

The Bayern Munich 1987-88 jersey with the Commodore sponsor is a unique piece in the history of the club and European football. It represents a specific era, a recognizable aesthetic among a thousand, a sponsor that no longer exists — all elements that make it a unique collector's jersey. Official reissues of this season are rare, and those in good condition even more so.

A condition of 8/10 on a reissue is almost new. There aren't many in this condition, especially for such an iconic design. Whether you've been a Bayern fan forever, a collector of retro 80s football jerseys, or simply passionate about this golden age of the Bundesliga, this piece deserves a place of honor in your wardrobe or on your wall.
