Ridiculous? 1860 Munich Sells Custom Nike Teamwear At Fourfold Price
The new 1860 Munich 2020-21 kits were well received by fans and kit aficionados. However, they are a bit pricy.
1860 Munich 2020-21 Third Kit Based On Cheap Nike Park VII Teamwear Kit
The 1860 Munich 20-21 third kit is turquoise blue and black. It is the same as the Turquoise / Black Nike Park VII, just with the club logos and some details like an engraved lion and the slogan "Einmal Löwe, immer Löwe" (Once a lion, always a lion) on the back.
However, while the kit does not look bad to be honest, it is a bit expensive... The Nike Park 7 is available for just 14 Euro online, while 1860 demands 80 Euro for their kit.
If you buy the full kit with shorts and socks, you will be required to pay more than 115 Euro - at a rival store the standard teamwear shirt / shorts combo is available for around 35 Euro.
The Nike Park 7 kit is as basic as ever and offers a huge range of available colorways.
The away kit, meanwhile, is a better deal for fans. Based on a custom color combo of the high-end Nike Vapor Knit II, the 1860 Munich 2020-2021 also retails at 80 Euro - but the Vapor Knit II kit costs you 40 Euro in its standard rendition.
Other German 3. Liga clubs are selling their kits for a bit less - in example, Hansa Rostock's bespoke teamwear Nike kits retail at 70 Euro, 2. Bundesliga club Heidenheim also wants 70 Euro for their (really bespoke) home kit. Unterhacing wants 75 Euro for their standard Adidas Condivo 20 jerseys.
In other countries like Great Britain and Spain, the kits of lower-division teams are far cheaper - Plymouth Argyle F.C.(third division) just wants 42 GBP (46 Euro) for their home kit.
The completely bespoke Macron 1860 Munchen kits also retailed at 80 Euro, at least in the club's store.
