Shame. Among the generic designs adidas have soiled their strips with in recent years, Japan has always been allowed to keep something to distinguish it from others - like flames a few years ago. Now it\'s just another dull adidas template. Honestly, adidas should be ashamed of the way they are ruining these strips with their crappy corporate identity.
What a shame it is, as big of a marketting firm/ corporate giant in foot wear, apparel, balls and such. you would think that almighty Adidas could afford a proper Designer for da national kits of the countries in which they sponser.... I am wondering if they actually have any backgrounds on the particular nations to whom they are related. Have there marketing team looked into the cultures and does the country have any input into the designs.. I must say the Last Japan Kit was a marv. The Designs can be made possible, but i guess its probably too much work and would cost them too much money to do research... after all having one template for 15 nations is pretty cost effective to them. Look at Puma for instance, they have some Glamour in the kits, you can actually feel the passion of a nation if you wear the kit ( take those African nations kits for instance. <br />I really do hope Adidas Bucks up on there Kit designs and have some fun and imagination with the kits. C\'mon i dont...
