Aye that's the one. Had me baffled.

I'm certain I've never seen us play in that so it must be a training top. I'd guess around 99/00.

[Yorkie]

Perplexing. The orange piping immediately makes me think 1998/99 but can't find a definitive trace of it. Definitely a training top though aye. 

 

This beaut is from that season and has the same collar style:

 

 

But the same website also has this training shirt from the same time, which is almost identical to that elusive one in the doc, but for a collar variation and the colouring of the piping:

 

 

This was the Karelse one, worn at Southampton and Arsenal in 1999/00:

Google lens has done a really good job of finding every football top you can think of in that style but can't find that exact one

[bowlingcrofty]

It was a training sweatshirt if I recall correctly - 1999/2000 territory I think 

[nufcjb]

Since it was in an adidas storage, could have been a prototype or concept kit that never made it to mass production.

Apparently, its £40m per year? I must have missed that. Didn't know thr exact numbers.

They said in the documentary that it was worth £200m and it’s over 5 years.

 

I have to say, I do like the new Adidas logo.

Really nice that black top. 

[Charlies]

Shit source but you’d think it’d be around that figure 

 

 

[FLUMPO235]

Think I’m going to stick £2 a week away. Guessing the new shirt will be about 70-80 quid. That’s far too much for a football shirt for me, £2 a week will soften the blow. ?

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I'm considering all the money I haven't spent on kits for the last £15+ years

[Stifler]

Aye, Arsenal’s and Man Utd’s this year was £80, that’s the normal person wear one as well. You’ve got to think that with inflation they might try and push it to £85-£90 next season.

 

They are getting a bit much now like.

[FLUMPO235]

I still fancy all 3 of this seasons kits if they drop to £25 at the end of the season like last year. But I imagine castore might cut back production now and have less to shift at knock down prices. 

[El Prontonise]

£80 for a football shirt is absolute criminal.

Can get all 3 from DHGate for £30 in total

 

Then the money you've saved can go towards buying a legit Adidas one next year

My brother got 2 XXL from DHGate and they don't fit either of us, and I normally wear a L

 

Imagine quite a lot of DHGate shirts end up unwearable. 

[bobbydazzla]

I ordered L when I’m normally M, fit is just right 

 

From a seller that was recommended by others on here, so I knew to go one size up 

[Stifler]

I went through the Tyne Tunnel earlier, and they had the Black & White Adidas advertisements up on the screen.

For the Adidas (Entertainers) snides I got from DHGate, the largest size they seem to do is 2XL, and they were both a bit 'snug' on me, and fitted more like a UK 'L' at best. My son has them both now, as he's a uk M or L, and they both fit him fine

 

However, the last Castore ones i got, they had up to '4XL', so went for those and they fit like a UK 2XL.

Currently trying to shift some timber though, and I'd love to get one of the 1999-2000 shirts, the last one with the Brown Ale sponsor, but would be taking a chance on the 2XL DHgate sizing again. 

[Vedder]

Must depend on who you buy off on DH Gate. Originally got the away 95-96 in my usual medium size, it was a bit tight so bought a large and it fits great. The review section usually tells you how many sizes up you need to go.

Still no sign of the Champions League numbers in the club shop

They must have sold thousands of shirts with CL badges and PL numbers now. I also note they have taken down the 'waiting for aporoval' sign. I think we may not have a cup font this year, like last year.
