Review: FC Copenhagen 12-13 home jersey
By Christiaan Husing , San Jose, California
I enjoyed my visit to Copenhagen and have a fondness for Denmark and the Danish people. I’ve been a football fan since my youth and have amassed a large football shirt collection. I have worn many shirts from many clubs from many manufacturers.
FC Copenhagen have been my Danish side for some years. I have owned a number of FCK shirts from the early 2000s onward.
In recent years, Kappa’s line of replica shirts have not been the best for supporters. Tight-fitting, they look good on athletes but not necessary on out of shape or aged supporters! The Kappa logo, with its naked man and woman, has embarrassing connotations in the United States.
Thankfully, for the 2012-2013 season, FCK have paired with Adidas to provide a line of classic replica shirts and training wear. The 2012-2013 FC Copenhagen home shirt merges Adidas’ classic style with FCK’s recent history.
The shirt is light and features Adidas’ Climacool fabric which is moisture-wicking. I first wore it doing some cleaning work and felt just as dry after I was finished as when I put it on.
The three Adidas blue stripes on the shoulder are a classic look and the FCK emblem is embroidered on the chest. The FCK logo definitely attracts attention with its blue lion and the Danish flag makes the shirt stand out here in America. With the Carlsberg sponsors logo screen printed on the chest, nobody will mistake this shirt as being from Major League Soccer!\
Adidas shirts tend to be fond of collars, which while historical, do not please me from a style standpoint. Thankfully, this shirt does not have a collar. Unlike the Kappa shirts, the replica is cut for a more comfortable fit and will accommodate those who are thin and those who are not-so-thin!
What makes this shirt stand out more from past FCK shirts is the addition of “1992-2012” in gold on the back neck line in gold font. This celebrates the 20th anniversary of the modern FCK club.
I recommend the shirt to all FCK supporters and congratulate Adidas on their effort!
FC Copenhagen from Kappa to adidas
FC Copenhagen in adidas
The leading soccer team in Scandinavia FC Copenhagen have decided to switch from Kappa and to adidas.
The deal will be effective starting in July 2012 and will be valid for 4 years.
Copenhagen did play in adidas already once during the 1990s but since then adidas has been primarily been associated with the likes of Brondby in Denmark, IFK Gothenburg in Sweden, and Rosenborg in Norway.
However, the cooperation with Brondby has ended most likely due to poor results and a lot of off the pitch trouble inside the club. Since adidas is no longer spending big time on the Liverpool sponsorship it might have freed up resources for an engagement with FC Copenhagen.
The press release states that it is the biggest sponsorship in the history of adidas in Scandinavia with any football club.
The biggest allure probably comes from the fact that FC Copenhagen is well suited to secure regular participation in the biggest club tournament of them all. The UEFA Champions League. The CL is broadcoast across the globe and brings a global audience and a lot of focus on the participating clubs and of course on their apparel sponsors.
