Based in the small northern city of Bodø, FK Bodø/Glimt have built one of the most distinctive visual identities in European football. Their all-yellow colours — adopted in the 1960s — reflect the low Arctic sun and the brightness of Norway’s midnight light. “Glimt” translates to “flash” or “glimmer,” perfectly summing up both their name and their luminous shirts.
Over time, the bright yellow kits have become a symbol of optimism, community, and defiance — representing a club that has consistently punched above its weight against Norway’s traditional giants.
Bodø/Glimt’s early shirts were simple yellow cotton designs with black trim, reflecting the club’s practical, community-focused origins. As the club rose through the Norwegian leagues, their kits evolved in step with their ambitions.
Manufacturers such as Diadora, Umbro, and Adidas have all supplied the club over the decades, while more recent partnerships with Select and Craft have emphasised Scandinavian simplicity and functional design. The yellow tone itself has gradually shifted — from pastel shades in the 1970s to the intense golden-yellow now synonymous with Glimt’s modern success.
Away kits usually incorporate black or white, often featuring subtle geometric patterns inspired by the Arctic landscape or Bodø’s surrounding mountains.
1975 Home Shirt – worn as Glimt won their first Norwegian Cup, marking their arrival on the national stage.
2020 Home Shirt – celebrated as the kit of Norway’s first-ever northern champions, when Glimt stormed to the Eliteserien title with record points.
2021 European Kit – worn during their unforgettable 6–1 victory over Roma in the UEFA Europa Conference League.

Arctic inspiration: The club’s yellow was chosen to mirror the Arctic summer light — one of the few professional teams in Europe whose colour scheme is tied directly to geography.
Regional pride: Bodø/Glimt were the first club from northern Norway ever allowed into the top division, and their kit became a symbol of regional representation.
Name meaning: “Glimt” literally means “flash of lightning” or “glimmer,” inspiring the club’s early shirt crests and lightning-bolt motifs used in the 1980s.
The minimalist approach: True to Scandinavian design principles, most Bodø/Glimt shirts avoid excessive patterning, focusing on pure colour and clean typography.
Subtle detailing: Several modern Craft kits include a faint embossed map of Nordland county — a nod to the club’s northern roots.
European statement: Following their 2020 title, Bodø/Glimt produced a special black “Arctic Night” kit symbolising their European ambitions — now a cult collector’s item.
Sustainability focus: Recent shirts have been made from recycled materials, aligning with the club’s environmental initiatives in one of Europe’s most eco-conscious regions.
