    Still baffles me how people get upset over what clothes people wear

    I thought the range would’ve sold out by now, with the amount sharing online that they’ve bought it.

    They should get the same stock levels for sponsorless kits!

    The track jacket looks neat. Just that I bought the Brown remembering track jacket recently.

    But I have to say, the whole thing is proper virtue signalling from Adidas and also a bit of Celtic. "Celtic Love Unites" expect for the slave work forces in South East Asia who get paid * all, working Monday to Saturday or even Sunday, sometimes even child worker. If Celtic takes those things serious make sure it's produced at plants with fair labour conditions. It makes the products a couple of pennies more expensive. I find it quite appalling that they charge 60 quid but pretend to not have any money for fair labour. The whole industry is mostly green washing.

    If Celtic wants to be innovative, produce a clothing line with renewable fibers and fair labour conditions. Would be industry leading and something to be really proud of.

    You seem offended by the current merch deal yet you buy the merch.

    Edit: yeah the prime green stuff is green washing it. Clothing industry is a dodgy one but it would need loads of clubs to invest in it as a group to make changes.

    :giggle1: In my defence, I bought it because my old Nike Celtic jacket from 2008 or so is so broken at the sleeves, I can't wear it in public anymore or I give a bad image of our support. My last Celtic jersey is from 2017/18 and before that 2012. 3 merchandise products in 10 years seems ok'ish for someone who moans like me :84:

    They'll not sell 100 of that multicoloured monstrosity. I guess they're trying to make it so ugly that it's a cult hit or something but I just can't see anyone anywhere wearing it outdoors.

    I know a few folk who want it, so it won't surprise me if it's a good seller.

    I think because the style is so different and what it represents it will sell alot more than some folk expect.

    Does anyone know what the liklihood is of Adidas staying with us past the original 5 year deal? We have surely been a good earner for them?

    It’s just generic tat. Aberdeen has the exact same range, just with their badge.

    Anyone who doesn't love the new training gear needs to stop hating themselves and come out of the closet.

    I LOVE IT!!!

    Why does it matter if other teams are releasing similar stuff ? Surely that's a good thing ?

    Im 31 and no * chance would these kits have even been discussed by the major football manufacturers when I was a teen. The more visibility the better.

    Do you also dig up those complaining about the generic, duplicated training tops?

    Nah because they are just complaining about the style etc where you clearly have an agenda.
