City of Edinburgh Trading Standards officials seized 58,000 counterfeit football shirts & kit, all intended to be sold illegally during the World Cup.
The kits weighed in at 9 tonnes and had an estimated retail value in excess of £5.5 million 🚨
Wonder if this will be the last World Cup where the kits are literally all 100% polyester...pro athletes/teams + fans surely wanting to choose "natural" alternative if performance can be maintained..due to both environmental + health benefits (perceived and/or actual)
