New teammate for everybody in red and white. With the Kay Bojesen Monkey x DBU, two of the greatest Danish national icons have joined forces, with humour, creativity and good craftsmanship celebrating unity and the pride of standing side by side – from playing with friends to playing for Denmark. In the 2025 edition of Kay Bojesen Monkey x DBU, we take a nostalgic step back in time to a memorable celebration of the iconic Danish football jersey from the era around the 1986 World Cup in Mexico. You probably remember the jersey characterised by its simple yet highly recognisable two-part design with tight stripes in two different contrasts, where one side almost appears solid with stripes in the same colour shade, while the other side has a multitude of thin red and white stripes. Exactly that retro jersey that will always evoke unforgettable memories of the Men's national team's breakthrough on the international stage. A cherished symbol for both football fans and design enthusiasts. The jersey design is created by hummel, and for many Danes, this unique football jersey represents not just a tribute to a bygone era. The 86 jersey is also a connection to the national identity and pride that many experienced because the World Cup in Mexico was a groundbreaking tournament for Denmark, where the Men's national team made a lasting impact on the world football map. Therefore, the jersey also serves as a symbol of community and national pride, bringing people together in their love for the sport – and each other. Exactly what the collaboration between Kay Bojesen and DBU is about, namely the importance of preserving and celebrating Danish culture and history, while giving fans – both football fans and design fans – the opportunity to own an exclusive piece of this heritage by letting a perhaps even more world-famous icon of Danish design wear it with pride. Kay Bojesen Monkey x DBU with this completely legendary national team jersey is produced only in 2025. And when it's the Kay Bojesen Monkey wearing it, it doesn't hurt that the 86 jersey is still recognised in football circles as one of the most beautiful football jerseys ever and has won several international awards as one of the most iconic jersey designs in football history. You can get Kay Bojesen Monkey x DBU in the 2025 version in two sizes. You decide whether it should be this mini version at 9.5 cm in height or the slightly larger football fan at 18.5 cm that you invite inside – or maybe both. Both mini and small are dressed in the Men's national team's beautiful 86 away jerseys painted with great care and applied with print with the utmost precision down to the smallest details, so the jersey design is as close as possible to the original and beautifully interpreted in line with the figurine's history with the authentic and well-crafted expression full of the soul and humour that has always been the basis for Kay Bojesen's unique craftsmanship and storytelling. Both sizes come in the classic mix of FSC® certified teak and controlled limba wood. With the continued collaboration with DBU, Kay Bojesen's original stories made of wood are carried forward with a new chapter about football and community, humbly and with a twinkle in the eye, writing further on a legendary design heritage still alive and kicking.
