This was RB Leipzig's first ever home kit in their young history. They gained promotion from the Oberliga (5th division)... to the Regionalliga (4th division) in their inaugural season. Several years on, Leipzig would have to change their logo and name, due to regulations by the DFL, who are in charge of the 1. and 2. Bundesliga. Leipzig changed the RB initials from "Red Bull" to "Rasenballsport" (english: "Lawnballsport") and were forced to remove Red Bull's logo from their own logo.
