Shirt condition
Perfect condition
No flaws. The royal blue is deep and perfectly even, with no faded areas and no shoulder haze. Both arms of the saltire — the green and the white — are crisp, with no bleeding and no lifting at the seams. The heat-bonded raised Volkswagen badge is intact: no cracking, no rising edges, and the chrome gradient still reads clearly. The DE BRUYNE No.14 nameset is spotless, including the two club « W » logos at the foot of the digits. Perfect embroidered badge, Bundesliga and Hermes patches firmly attached, white collar with no distortion and no yellowing.

100% AUTHENTIC
✦ Authenticity guaranteed for life
Item checked by hand in my authentication workshop. If anything you buy from me is ever identified as a unofficial, I refund it in full. The guarantee never expires.
- Original Kappa label photographed (photo 4): manufacturer codes RN #136820 and CA #18223, 100% polyester composition in four languages. Exactly the layout of Kappa labels from this period
- The club « W » logo is printed inside the 1 and the 4 (photo 5): two tiny blue discs on white, built into the foot of each digit. Unofficial namesets stop at the number
- The Volkswagen badge is raised, not printed (photo 3): a domed heat-bonded piece with a chrome gradient that shifts with the angle of the light. On a unofficial it is a flat, matte transfer
- « FUSSBALL IST ALLES » printed under the inner collar (photo 1): the club motto, visible only when you lift the collar. An internal detail reproductions always skip
- Real photos of the exact shirt you receive, never stock images — full method in my authentication guide
🛠️ Workshop note — The most reliable check on this shirt is the junction between the two arms of the saltire. On a genuine Kappa, the green and the white are separate fabric panels stitched together: run a finger across and you feel the seam and the slight ridge. On unofficial pieces, the cross is printed onto plain blue fabric — perfectly smooth. Turn the shirt inside out too: the internal panel seams are overlocked in blue, never in white.
📖 De Bruyne, 21 assists and Wolfsburg's finest season
Some shirts belong to a single season. This third comes from the year Kevin De Bruyne took the Bundesliga apart, just before leaving for Manchester City.
🏆 DFB-Pokal 2015 — Wolfsburg lift the cup. A 3-1 win over Borussia Dortmund in the final in Berlin. The club's second major trophy, after the 2009 league title.
⭐ 21 assists in a single season. De Bruyne set the Bundesliga single-season assist record and was voted the league's player of the year. The performance that triggered his move to Manchester City.
🎯 Bundesliga runners-up. Wolfsburg finished second behind Bayern Munich, their best placing since the title. A season that remains the benchmark for Wolves supporters.
🎨 The saltire, a Kappa signature — Royal blue crossed by a green-and-white double diagonal: Kappa gave Wolfsburg one of the most graphic thirds of the decade in Germany. The chrome Volkswagen badge sitting at the centre of the cross completes it.

❓ Frequently asked questions about this shirt
Is the Volkswagen badge damaged?
No. It is a raised heat-bonded piece, the most fragile part of this shirt, and it is intact: no lifted edges, no cracking in the chrome gradient, no distortion. You can see it close up in photo 3.
How do you know this is the 2014-2015 season?
The green-and-white saltire third design was only worn by Wolfsburg that season. It is cross-checked by the Hermes sleeve sponsor, by the version of the Bundesliga patch stitched on the sleeves, and by De Bruyne's No.14 — he left the club in summer 2015.
What are the sleeve patches?
Two Bundesliga logos, one on each side: that is the German league configuration. Wolfsburg also played in the Europa League that season, but this example carries the Bundesliga version.
Is this shirt authentic?
Yes. Original Kappa label with RN and CA codes, saltire made of stitched fabric panels (not printed), heat-bonded raised Volkswagen badge, « W » logos built into the nameset and « FUSSBALL IST ALLES » under the collar. Authenticity guaranteed for life.
How does this M fit?
Measured flat: 51 cm pit to pit and 73 cm long. An Italian Kappa M, so true to size but generous in length. If you wear M and like a fitted look it is perfect; if you prefer loose, go one size up.
How much is shipping and how fast?
Dispatched within 48 working hours with tracked Colissimo (€5.99 in mainland France, free from €99.99). International rates and delivery times are detailed on my shipping FAQ. 14-day returns if unworn.
