Glasgow Celtic Nike 2008-09 Home and Goalkeeper Kits / Jerseys

Posted by 5nil on July 16, 2008

CELTIC today officially unveiled their new home kit. It uses Nike Sphere Dry fabric technology, first used by Nike in national team kits worn in the 2006 World Cup. This technology is designed to enhance player performance by wicking sweat through the material and away from the skin. The fabric has a three-dimensional design with raised nodes on the underside that lift it away from the players’ bodies to reduce ‘cling’ and allow air to circulate, assisting the body’s own natural evaporation process.

On the inside collar of the shirt, similar to the new gold away kit, are the words: “It’s not the creed nor nationality that counts. It’s the man himself,” a quote from Willie Maley, one of the most iconic figures in the club’s history and words which proudly demonstrate Celtic as a club open to all.

Last seaon, they narrowly escaped relegation to the third tier of English football, League One, thanks to the late season heroics of players like Stern John. Hopefully, the Saints will regain their form this year and push for promotion back the the English Premier League.  Their Umbro kits for the upcoming season are shown below. The away strip is a thing of beauty. It works very well with their traditional away color of gray.
