A Spanish language blog has produced the most convincing pictures of the Magners sponsored Celtic home kit for 2013/14.
The home kit is certainly a big departure on recent shirts with the green hoops broken up by pinstripe white hoops- similar to the Magners logo.
In recent weeks there has been a number of photo-shopped kits appearing online but todosobrecamisetas.blogspot.co.uk appear to have have acquired the real deal with their watermark appearing throughout the images.
The site seems to have a good track record for shirt launches, earlier this week they revealed the new Aston Villa kit complete with player pictures
Celtic announced the new deal with Magners in January with supporters pleased to go it alone after previously being tagged into joint ventures with Rangers prior to the liquidation of the a Ibrox club.
At the time Celtic chief Peter Lawwell said: “We always set out on our own looking for shirt sponsors but circumstances rather than a plan always brought us back together because it was a local sponsor who needed both and you ended up back there.
“We have our own story and traditions, a very powerful offering to a sponsor. I don’t really want to talk about other clubs. We are on our own, we are not defined by any other club. We are Celtic, with our own values and tradition.”
As well as the Magners deal Celtic also have a lucrative arrangement with Nike which ensures that their merchandise is available worldwide alongside clubs like Barcelona, Manchester United and Inter Milan.
The new kit is likely to become available at the start of July and worn for the first time in the pre-season friendly away to Union Berlin on July 12.

I think that it is not a bad shirt At last we are able to stand alone Nothing to do with that Bigoted scum across the city Hail Hail
I don’t know …. I’m not a big fan of the new shirt if its a true pic……
Nice shirt. The hoops are still hoops
I like it. It is recognisable as a Celtic top, keeping the Hoops, but adding a little variation.
I will need too see it for real before I decided if I will buy it. Anybody know what the away top will look like. Hail Hail
When I saw the photos of this a few weeks back I hated it but it is starting to grow on me. I don’t like it that the hoops are broken down though. There are better designs they could do but obviously Nike prefer to have their shirt designers who have no dress sense and probably have the surname of Magoo!!
Better than some of the hideous creations we have been lumbered with in recent years. Hopefully they have also ditched those awful black socks, noted we stopped wearing them towards the end of the season.
Glad we have returned to the proper badge as well, that additional crap round it last year was bogging.
It is a true picture, I’ve had the top for a few weeks now, it grows on you! I also got one with old tennents sponsor on it….lol
Agree re the socks, though to be fair the black jobs were only worn for a few games at the start of the season before they were dropped.
White socks and shorts and the Hoops, clean, fresh and The originals, no better strip out there. This new job, I think, will be even brighter, which is good.
Years ago I was told the traditional seven Hoops represented the seven counties of the north, Donegal being the geographic seventh (rather than the political six), Celtic urban myth?
Either way, its good to see the tradition maintained with the seven Hoops within the Hoop itself rather than the Magners five.

don’t like it to be honest. Shouldn’t a broken the Hoops
F**kin’ mintit!! bring it on! :)) HH
