Adidas- 5 year deal - Pre order- 10th July, New Home Kit

How on earth are they honking? They are unreal. Direct replicas of historic shirts. What more could you want? The one on the left is possibly the nicest non home top I've seen since watching Celtic in the early night 2000s.

I hope to * they are our 2nd & 3rd kits.

 

They are both *. Hopefully we get to see the real deal Soon enough and hopefully looks nothing like these

 

Hardly historic shirts. Both were at a time we were absolutely stinking in the 90s and aesthetically they're arguably the least popular away jerseys we've ever had.

You're definitely in the minority if you think that is the nicest non-home top since 2000. We've had some crackers in that time and genuinely historic ones. Yellow Seville one and Two-tone Green one for the Double Treble spring to mind straight away.

 

Colour scheme diff but it could work as an away .

 

Away and third sorted

 

Let’s hope so.

 

The old school logo looks best on tops, hope they run with that

 

They won’t be. Some * in a bedroom making them.

The same goes with every top we’ve seen so far.

 

I like the one on the right. It reminds me of one of my favourite old away tops that Umbro did back in the 90's.

 

Guy on twitter makes these bespoke,mine is being delivered today

 

Suspect we were lucky to get this deal over the line before all this virus * kicked off.

 

Yeah, although I suspect it was signed months ago. Any club trying for a deal now, ain't getting one or a good one .
I suspect deals next year won't be that great either.

 

Someone on twitter said way back in September that adidas were our new kit maker so I think it’s been done for a while

 

We weren’t that ‘stinking’....

Just up against one of the worst periods for honest mistakes, blatant cheating, bungs, bribes , general sporting corruption and anti-Celtic tactics from everyone (including our own governing body) in 150 years of Scottish football.

 

As other said I think this deal was done quite some time ago. Also heard it wasn't the only offer on the table of around this value.

I only mention this to highlight how * the Hun situation is with kits. Clearly clubs get this done a while before the previous deal ends, whereas they sit without a deal altogether.

 

Right what’s the script, any more concept kits or ideas of what to expect?

 

Yep..

We weren't lucky.....this would've been in the pipeline for a long time with our new balance contract running out..

 

I was thinking the very same

 

Certainly the timing worked out for us with it I think yes. I imagine a lot clubs that are in negotiations with kit manufacturers now are going to take some kind of hit at least in the short term.

 

Remembering Portland Timbers are Adidas and green based.
