Another new Celtic shirt was released last week, after a fairly hostile reaction when it was launched opinion seems to have mellowed but it is unlikely to be looked back on as a classic.
What you can actually do with hoops is fairly limited but down the years Adidas, New Balance and Nike have come up with some extreme variations on the classic kit that Umbro produced when no-one really bothered much about kit manufacturers.
The more that things change it seems that the simpler Lisbon style design grows in appeal. The plainest of hoops with a simple round neck collar has set a benchmark that will never be bettered.

A third kit for the 22/23 season has still to be launched, with three strips and goalkeeper variations, shirt collection is an expensive business requiring more and more wardrobe space.
