Aberdeen Midtylland

Yeah don't know who to believe. Previously Aberdeen have been desperately trying to shift shirts at the end of the season, so have obviously over estimated what they would sell. These are "record sales" now though and certainly I've never known us to sell out in just a few hours (I actually went on the club shop site this morning just to see if there were any more photos of the strip and was put in a 20-minute queue). We're not considered an "Elite" club by Adidas (odd, considering we're the only club on their roster who are Scottish Cup holders) so getting a restock appears to take time. If you remember the 'spezial' thing they did, the stock appeared to be really low and has never been restocked. Likewise, I wouldn't put it past us to make headlines with "record sales" and "strip sold out in hours" thing. But why make someone wait a month for a shirt they want now - in a month they might have changed their mind (or found other means). For comparison, Man Utd (who are an Adidas elite club) you can buy both strips in all sizes on their site, and likewise Celtic (elite from this season, which is odd because... I already used the Scottish Cup joke didn't I?) all three strips on their site are available in all sizes.

Yeah reads as if he has been released from his contract rather than him moving to another club.

I think it's Adidas rather than the club. We're a relatively small fish. Hopefully the mizuno lads will recognise our sleeping giant status.

Lovely. If this is the last Dons strip with Adidas then it's a fine way to bow out. Aye they've had a few - as @RicoS321 put it - abominations. But generally we've had 83 and 90 inspired kits and it's been decent. I get the fear with some of them. Castore's kits were falling apart, Hummel I don't like the arrows on the sleeves which Hearts & Killie are stuck with. Nike - surprising considering they're a big name - a lot of their strips look cheap. Joma have produced some awful Hibs strips. Puma I'd accept (although that would be a kick in the baws to Adidas), I liked some of the strips we had with them previously and they've been producing some very decent ones for PSV. Umbro have been making a comeback and have a long association with the Dons. Also, don't know if it was just someone making up a rumour, but someone said we were possibly going with Mizuno. Not seen or heard anything else about that, but that would be interesting as their golf gear is of high quality. They're quite new to the club football market - Lazio, Monaco, a few smaller German clubs and their own Japanese market appear to be all they produce for.
