Boooooorrrrriiinnnnnnnng!

Ok I’ll make this quick.
Adidas have (in the past week or so) been releasing the most boring 2010 World Cup kits that I have ever seen!
I’m not expecting Armani out there in South Africa – but you can hardly tell the kits apart (except for the colours and tiny details).
Considering the World Cup and the Olympics are the only 2 global sporting events that anyone might still watch – logic would have been that Adidas would have brought their “A” game – pun fricking intended.
Kits used to be simple but also cool, especially…
The old school French kit;

Or the crazy Danish kit;

And the only boring kit allowed should be Brazil…because they’re sweet enough!


Meanwhile Puma, have kept it simple but brilliant with their colours, designs and stunning promo video;
How ‘cool’ the kits are makes a difference to how that country is perceived.
Denmark in 86, Cameroon with their sleeveless (and banned) shirts, Ivory Coast in their skin tight bright Orange numbers – they all played good, but looked good as well….
Not rocket science!
R

























Thats excatly what it is – Boring. No edge, no style, no wow or oh i wanna have one of those effect. Just plain, good old german “ordnung muss sein” super boring apeal…
No wonder Adidas just never even get close to take over the the world sports gear market…
[...] Adidas No other way to put it….they must be pissed! Messi is the World Player of the Year, Kaka is maybe a bit too purist to have that global appeal…there’s always the ball and all the crappy World Cup Kits they keep releasing. [...]
