Adidas has dropped a new Glastonbury Festival-themed football shirt, set for release at 9 am on May 31. The shirt sports a colorful arrow-pattern on a dark base, with "EST. 1970" emblazoned on the back, paying homage to Glastonbury’s founding year.
The launch has polarized opinions online, especially in the Glastonbury subreddit. Some fans call the design “horrific” and “cringe,” while others gripe about the £80 price tag, seeing it as steep for a festival tee. Resale prices have surged, with listings hitting £150 on eBay—riling fans who missed out at retail.
Despite criticism, several festivalgoers have already scored the shirt via the official Glastonbury shop. This release continues the growing trend of football culture merging with festival style, where vintage kits and football-inspired garments increasingly appear across UK festivals.
As Glastonbury 2025 approaches, Adidas’ football shirt drop has stirred spirited debate over design authenticity and value among the festival community. Whether a hit or miss, it’s a loud reminder of how festival merch is evolving beyond classic tees.
