In the 280th Zurich derby on Sunday, October 23, Grasshopper Club Zürich will appear in a special orange derby shirt. The Hoppers have worn this color several times in their glorious past, including on the away jersey in the 1980s and during the 2002/03 championship season.
Whether on the jersey numbers or as the main color of the jersey, orange has been part of the club's history for a long time and has accompanied the Hoppers on the pitch in many legendary games. The tradition logo on the heart and the slogan "Für Eusi Stadt" on the neck complete a simple, yet elegant and classy design.
The jersey is also the central element of the <link www.gcz.ch/en/news/news/article/grasshooper-club-zurich-and-fc-zurich-together-against-violence/ - external-link-new-window "Link auf eine externe Seite - Grasshopper Club Zürich">campaign against violence</link>, which Grasshopper Club Zürich is carrying out together with FCZ on the occasion of the 280th Zurich derby.
Support the Hoppers and do good at the same time!
With this special derby shirt, which features the slogan "Fuessball ohni Gwalt" on the back, Grasshopper Club Zürich wants to raise awareness of this issue among all its fans and at the same time play an active role in preventing violence.
Twenty percent of the proceeds from the derby shirts sold will in fact be donated to the Zurich-based association "Gefangene Helfen Jugendlichen" (Prisoners Help Young People) to accompany and actively support young people on their way into the adult world.
