Bayern Munich will wear a special kit made entirely of recycled plastic recovered from the ocean in Saturday's Bundesliga game against Hoffenheim.
The one-off strip, which was unveiled on Friday, has been manufactured from so-called Ocean Plastic - fibers produced from recycled plastic material collected from coastal areas around the Maldives.
It is hoped that the kit, which Bayern state was produced in an "eco-friendly process", will raise awareness of the Parley for the Oceans campaign - co-founded by the club's primary kit manufacturer, Adidas - that is seeking to end pollution of the world's waters.
"I'm a child of the beaches of Spain, so I'm really happy to wear a shirt entirely made of recycled ocean waste. It's a great opportunity to raise awareness about the importance of protecting the oceans," said midfielder Xabi Alonso.
For the oceans.
