Celtic FC Adidas Samba trainers faces critisism by fans
The Glasgow club recently unveiled a special-edition Adidas Samba trainer featuring the Celtic crest, but the £100 price tag and overall design have sparked widespread backlash from supporters. One frustrated fan commented: '£100? For God's sake, Celtic, that's over the top.' Another added: 'Never liked the look of Sambas, but even if I did, I wouldn't spend £100 on them. Rip-off.' A third supporter echoed the sentiment, saying, 'To be fair, they look terrible. Having already released Samba and Gazelle, they should've gone with something different, like a ZX. "Also, charging £100 is shocking. I'll pick them up for the collection, but it's a shockingly poor release.' A fourth said bluntly: 'Scamming more money from the fans.' While the trainer release has drawn criticism, Celtic's new merchandise partnership with Primark has seen a warmer reception. The Glasgow Times reported that the collaboration includes a range of kid-friendly apparel now available in Glasgow stores, such as a green hoodie with the Celtic crest for £15 and a camouflage T-shirt priced at £9.

One shopper asked: 'What about Rangers ones?' while another echoed: 'Where are the Rangers ones?'
