Celtic fans reacted favourably to the launch of the club’s new mainly white away kit.
Featuring the return of the Celtic Cross, which was on the club’s earliest shirts, the top is fairly similar to the Nike design worn in season 2012/13.
With bottle green trim and sleeves the new shirt has a traditional feel to it while also keeping the more fashion conscious fans happy.
Crafted for the Champions. All eyes on the new season.

Not sure about the collar, looks like it’s trying to strangle Kieran. But saying that am a sucker for a white sellic top, can see me buying it.

One problem however is that the all white top may not be suitable for away games against St Mirren, Hamilton or Kilmarnock.
All three of those clubs have white in their top which points towards an a black or all green third kit.
In the season just finished Celtic’s second and third kits were both green themed which meant that they had to delve deep into the hamper for the pink third kit worn in season 2016/17 for their visits to face Hibs at Easter Road.
