Adidas Slashes Glitch Price
Jul 14, 2017, by Pat
It's fair to say that the hype around the Adidas Glitch has died down a bit recently after it debuted to much acclaim late last year.
Perhaps as a reaction to this, Adidas has supplied its official social influencers with Glitch codes that are not only unlimited in use (initially a code was only valid for one transaction) but also include a GBP 70 discount off the GBP 320 (previously GBP 250) starter pack. This just about equals 20%.
If you didn't know, an Adidas Glitch starter pack includes two outer skins and one inner shoe to get things started smoothly. To start your own Glitch journey, just download the app and make sure you are in Germany or the UK.
Do you think the Adidas Glitch is a more viable option at GBP 180? Drop us a line below.
Update: This move is part of an array of changes introduced by Adidas recently, which not only made the boot available to anyone based in the UK but also increased the default price of the start pack to GBP 320. Subsequently, the new 'discount' only brings it back to the previous level.
Concept: What If World Cup Winners Wore Special Badges on Club Kits?
A creative concept visualized by Bleacher Report has sparked discussion among kit enthusiasts, posing an intriguing question: what if players who have won the FIFA World Cup were allowed to wear a special champion badge on their club kits? Under current FIFA equipment regulations, only reigning national team champions and Club World Cup winners are permitted to sport the official FIFA Champions Badge, but bringing an individual achievement patch to the club stage introduces a bold twist to modern shirt details.
The mockups feature World Cup winners wearing a sleek, gold trophy silhouette on their kit sleeves stamped with the year of their international triumph. The concept envisions players like Lionel Messi donning a 2022 patch on his Inter Miami shirt, Kylian Mbappé carrying a 2018 badge in Real Madrid white, and Rodri sporting a 2026 mark. It serves as an immediate visual marker of football's ultimate honor, staying with the player regardless of their club transfers.
In reality, domestic leagues and confederations enforce strict uniform guidelines that limit sleeve real estate almost entirely to league badges, sleeve sponsors, and charitable campaign logos. While regulatory hurdles make such a badge virtually impossible in professional football, the visualization offers a clean and compelling look at how personal legacy could be integrated into club kits.
Inter Milan 26-27 Third Kit Debuted
Inter Milan officially debuted their new Nike 26-27 third kit on the pitch during a dramatic 5-3 Serie A comeback victory against Udinese at the San Siro, just hours after its official unveiling.
Taking inspiration from the Nerazzurri's iconic look from the late 1990s, notably referencing the 1997-98 and 1998-99 shirts. the new third kit is built on a stone-grey 'Iron Ore' base featuring a subtle tonal jacquard pattern. The centerpiece of the design is a prominent black horizontal chest band accented by a thin 'Blue Spark' lower stripe. Bright 'Speed Yellow' details are applied to the Swoosh, the two-starred club crest, the Betsson.sport sponsor, and retro-styled 1990s font names and numbers.
