Kid Icarus Posted June 20 Share Posted June 20 Finally arrived. Definitely not better quality (pro vs pro) than Castore. Turns out I'm not as fat as I thought I was. Got XL and am probably an L. Hope they'll let me swap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 (edited) I'm so glad the 'fangs' on our shirts and shorts are in black and not white or any other colour like gold, blue, grey or even red. Seeing Argentina in white shorts with the blue fangs on their arse just doesn't seem right. Edited June 21 by nufcjb Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the authetic badge is the best execution of our badge yet. And adidas have a knitted collar where Castore use the same one on pro and replica. But I'd agree the material feels identical and looks very fragile! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres still two more current kits to release for the coming season, they won't want to impact initial sales by releasing that Remake kit too close. And 'early 2025' is only 7 month away.

nufcjb Posted Saturday at 12:57 Share Posted Saturday at 12:57 I imagine if the release it now or soon, it may outsell all of the upcoming season kits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would assume the Xmas market would be huge though. First time I saw the training gear today, long sleeved one is smart.

TheBrownBottle Posted Sunday at 05:01 Share Posted Sunday at 05:01 On 20/06/2024 at 06:55, Kaizero said: We are ranked as "Elite" by Adidas. You know by looking at the differences between their "Elite" package vs their "Premium" package, most notably that our kits get promoted globally by Adidas themselves and not just nationally (like they do for their "Premium" clubs). We'll also get a confirmation when we get the away shirt reveal, as "Elite" teams are meant to get a long-sleeve version of their away kit (not the home kit). However, Adidas also operate with a ranking system for the clubs within each of their sponsorship tiers and more perks are given the clubs at the top of those rankings than the ones below. As far as some light online takes me, it looks like Bayern Munchen, Man Utd, Arsenal and Real Madrid form some kind of Adidas "Big Four". Never been on the adidas website before, thought I'd test it here in Australia. This is what their 'football' front page looks like: No sign of us at all - usual suspects. Clearly adidas don't categorise all of their 'elite' clubs the same way. In fact, like Leeds and Leicester, there is no sign of us anywhere on their official website. They're paying us a fair whack, so who gives a shite, ultimately - but if we're really 'elite', then adidas are doing a good job of hiding it.

Maybe that's reflective of the local market in Australia? The Thai Adidas website only features the Euros and Madrid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems they have seven 'elite' clubs, but only five ... actually are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lack of stock might have something to do with the kit being launched quite late. To have both versions of the kit, replica and authentic, available over here 2 weeks after the release is good going in my opinion. I know it's sold well over here as they're now out of stock in most sizes. I'm sure it will be available in Australia soon enough. I just checked and they don't have Leeds or Leicester on sale here in Thailand.
