Logo on Castore Kit Just Fell Off
Apr 16, 2024, by Chris
- Castore Quality Issues: Despite recent successes, Castore is facing renewed scrutiny over the quality of its products, specifically logos falling off kits.
- Leverkusen Kit Problem: A German football expert reported the logo fell off his Leverkusen shirt after only a few wears, confirming a known issue with 2022-23 kits.
- Ongoing Concerns: While 2023-24 kits have better logos, they tear easily, raising questions about overall quality and Castore's ability to resolve these issues for the next season.
While Castore has recently celebrated successes with Leverkusen winning the German Championship and Bilbao securing the Copa del Rey title, the brand's quality issues have once again come to the forefront of people's minds.
Castore Logo Woes Continue: German Football Expert Reports Emblem Falling Off Shirt
Famous German football fan and expert @fiago7 posted a photo of his Leverkusen shirt, revealing that the logo had fallen off after just a few wears.
I just recorded videos about Leverkusen so pulled out my Leverkusen shirt and and the logo just fell off? I’ve maybe worn this thing 3 times in my life any way to get it back on? 😂 pic.twitter.com/54VN0wkkEV

Fiago got the Leverkusen 22-23 home kit with some autographs on it. It's a known issue for the Leverkusen crest to come off the Castore 2022-23 kits - the club offered fans to have the logo reattached in its stores.
While the current Castore 2023-24 kits have crests that do not fall off easily, the kits tear very often.
Will Castore have kits without major quality problems in the 2024-2025 season?
As Castore continues to expand its footprint in the sportswear market, addressing these issues will be crucial to maintaining consumer trust. Fans and clubs alike will be watching closely to see how Castore responds to these quality concerns for the 2024-2025 season.

Fortuna Sittard 26-27 Cup Kit Released - Sponsorless 1957 Tribute
Dutch Eredivisie side Fortuna Sittard and technical supplier Robey have officially revealed a special cup kit for the 26-27 campaign. Created in collaboration with design agency 51North, this release marks the very first dedicated cup kit in the club's history. It serves as a direct tribute to predecessor club Fortuna '54, who won the 1957 KNVB Beker with a memorable Bram Appel hat-trick against Feyenoord.
The Robey Fortuna Sittard 26-27 cup shirt faithfully revives the historic look with a white base highlighted by broad horizontal red and blue stripes across the chest, completing the Dutch tricolor. In true vintage fashion, the jersey comes with long sleeves as standard and features a retro polo collar. Club sponsors voluntarily stepped aside to allow a completely clean, sponsorless front, while the Robey branding and club badge are subtly embroidered in tonal white to maintain the authentic aesthetic.
Additional bespoke details round off the historic tribute. A heritage Fortuna '54 tag sits near the bottom hem, and an embroidered depiction of the KNVB Cup sits neatly below the back collar, added with official federation approval. The shirt is worn with matching white shorts and socks, completing a timeless look for Fortuna's cup run.
FIFA ASEAN Cup Features Same Left-Sleeve Kit Badge as in 2026 FIFA World Cup Final
The opening match between Laos and Brunei provided a full reveal of the sleeve patch pairing for the inaugural FIFA-organized Southeast Asian tournament.
Moving away from the previously expected navy blue, the official tournament patches feature a clean white base. Most notably, the "Football Unites the World" sleeve patch on the left arm is the exact same design that made a single, exclusive appearance at the recent World Cup Final between Spain and Argentina.
Big thanks to @What The Kit for spotting and making the collage.
