Castore Quality Problems Strike Again - Rakitic Wears Kit Without Sevilla Crest
Nov 6, 2022, by Chris
Ivan Rakitic wore a defective Castore FC Sevilla kit in the derby against Betis tonight.
Sevilla Crest Likely Came Off of Castore Sevilla Rakitic 22-23 Kit
As visible in the pictures, Ivan Rakitic wore a Castore Sevilla 22-23 away kit without the Sevilla logo in the second half.
It is not yet known what happened with the FC Sevilla crest of Rakitic's kit, but it appears most likely that it came off. As we reported a while back, the same happened with the kit of Bayer Leverkusen's Hincapié some weeks ago. In addition, the Spanish flag on the back of Sevilla's kits came off some weeks ago as well.
The same happened with Bayer Leverkusen's kits
Leverkusen Fans Can Have Kits Fixed by the Club
Indeed, Castore have a huge problem with the heat-applied elements of (all?) their 2022-2023 kits. Bayer Leverkusen fans can get their kit with faulty crests fixed in the club's store.
What do you think of Castore's ongoing problems with the quality of their kits? Comment below.
