Hundreds of Celta fans gathered at the doors of the official RC Celta shops, from early in the morning, to get their hands on the special shirt in honour of Vigo and its Reconquest and inspired by “Oliveira dos Cen Anos“.
The launch of this commemorative piece was announced last Thursday but it was not until this Monday at 10:00 am when it went on sale. The quota reserved for online sales was sold out in just 3 minutes. Meanwhile, the official shops at A Sede and Abanca Balaídos registered a long and intense activity until early afternoon when the last adult sizes were dispatched. At the moment, the last units of children’s sizes and the goalkeeper version in white are available in the physical shops.
To put the success of this launch into context, the number of shirts sold in just a few hours has tripled the club’s all-time sales record in a single day.
As announced, this was a first run of 1,809 units launched on the occasion of A Reconquista. In view of the high demand from the Celtic fans, the club is already working with Hummel to offer a second edition.
