On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the Lisbon final that made them Europe champions
May 5th, 2017
Celtics Glasgow jersey was always considered as one of the most stylish jersey in the history of football. It doesn’t matters the year, the brand or the sponsor, the white&green bands always had a great impact of the public. Of course, there are few exceptions, both in a positive or negative way.
One of those is the shirt New Balance produced for the Scottish club for the 2017/2018 season. It’s a special shirt, that celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Celtic former Champions League finals in Lisbon, again FC Internazionale. All the kit is, in fact, a recall to that jersey, especially thanks to the celebratory golden crest and the perfectly minimal style 60s look-alike.
It is in New Balance intention to create a mix among old and new, technology and tradition. It happened with the Liverpool shirt – released last week. Two releases that sound like a statement from the American brand, that is trying to conquer the football market.
