Adidas Dublin limited edition trainers and tracktop are another Size? anniversary exclusive

Size_dublin

After the chaos of the Adidas Manchester launch, Size? has obviously taken note and has a new way of distributing its latest Adidas limited edition reissue – the Adidas Dublin trainers and tracktop.

Like the Manchester, the Dublin is another reissue of the city range in very limited numbers – just 300 of the jacket and 500 of the trainers, both in an eyecatching blue and orange colourway with gum sole, numbered detailing and gold city branding.

if you want to secure them, get to your nearest Size? store as early as you can on June 19th. If that's not possible, Size? is doing a ballot for online sales. Sign up and if you get drawn, you'll be offered the chance to buy both items via Paypal. You've got until 9am on 16th June to get in that particular draw.

Slazenger 1966 World Cup special edition match ball

Slaz

A real talking point, as well as useful thing should you fancy an impromptu kickabout – the Slazenger 1966 World Cup special edition match ball.

You may or may not know that Slazenger produced the ball used in England’s ’66 World Cup triumph and this is a replica of that very same ball. No boffins worked on this particular piece of kit, this is a genuine hand stitched leather ball made up of 25 panels. But it is said to be a little lighter than the original (currently housed in the National Football Museum, wherever that happens to be this week).

Limited edition as you might expect, it sells for £19.66.
