Walkouts authentic VfL Wolfsburg signed football shirts

About

Founded on 12 September 1945 (1945), VfL Wolfsburg, based in Wolfsburg, Germany, play in the Bundesliga and remain best known for their men’s professional football team born from a multi-sports club for Volkswagen workers. The club’s identity and kit stories are central to collectors, and you can browse signed shirts and framed pieces at Walkouts as part of that history.

Since moving into the Volkswagen Arena in 2002 the team have consolidated a modern home, and their honours include one Bundesliga title from the 2008-09 campaign, the DFB-Pokal in 2015 and the DFL-Supercup in 2015. Wolfsburg also made a memorable run to the Champions League quarter-finals in 2015-16. Professional football is operated by a VfL Wolfsburg spin-off within the Volkswagen Group, and the club is ranked 234 by the IFFHS.

For collectors the club’s post-1970 anniversary pieces are especially prized. The club issued a 75 Jahre crest in 2020 that linked back to Wolfsburg’s post-war origins and Volkswagen heritage, and anniversary shirts from that release often surface in special-run retail drops and framed displays sought by regional aficionados of Lower Saxony football.

Season and match magnets drive demand: shirts from the 2008-09 title season, the 2014-15 DFB-Pokal winning campaign, and the 2015-16 Champions League run are repeatedly chased for provenance tied to decisive fixtures and squad signatures. Away sets from those years also carry story value, with collectors noting match programmes, squad photos and stadium provenance as key supporting material when verifying a piece.

Retail-signed shirts remain collectible in their own right, not just match-worn items, and fans actively seek early fanshop releases, limited player-issue variants and region-specific runs from supplier eras such as Adidas and Nike. The club’s away palette is part of that narrative, notably the 2015-16 black away kit linked to European away fixtures, and reputable listings often include a COA or comparable verification note to help confirm signature authenticity.

Provenance matters, so look for items connected to the 2008-09 season and to cup and European years when assessing pedigree, and remember anniversary releases like the 2020 75 Jahre anniversary crest often accompany limited-edition crests and packaging. Walkouts lists signed retail shirts, framed memorabilia and tournament-season pieces from 2008-09, 2014-15 and 2015-16 with clear photographic provenance and release notes for collectors seeking documented Wolfsburg items.
