Hi, all!
If you’re following along, I have decided to get a coffee advent calendar this holiday season.
Ramble of the Day
I realized I hadn’t gotten around to looking at and thanking about the collaboration Adidas recently did with Pharrell Williams, seemingly the first venture of his Humanrace company. The collaborators played on some old kits Arsenal, Bayern Munich, Juventus, Manchester United, and Real Madrid have sported, and the results aren’t so bad. Some quick thoughts on each of them:
I always believe alternate kits, especially third or fourth kits, should be a venue to just try things, so I fully approve of this Arsenal kit. This is a kit that’s all about contrast and clash, and is almost overwhelming in that sense. I think of it as a shirt that needs to be styled a certain way to get away with it, and I’m not sure a pair of blue shorts is it. Still, I appreciate the effort because it’s not like the other kits teams are wearing this season.
Bayern’s kits…
