Feyenoord Fans Feel Cheated by Het Twaalfde Shirt’s ‘Supporter Deception’
Feyenoord supporters are expressing outrage over a recent initiative called ‘Het Twaalfde Shirt.’ The project, launched in collaboration with Castore, allowed fans to submit their own shirt designs. This event aimed to create a unique and artistic representation of the team’s spirit.
Disappointment Over Product Quality
Fans were eagerly awaiting the release of the new green shirt, featuring gold accents and an embroidered logo in original colors. However, upon receiving the shirt, many were shocked to find that it did not resemble the online design in the Feyenoord Fanshop.
Feedback from Supporters
The shirts, priced at €99.95, prompted a wave of disappointment among supporters. Many took to social media to express their frustrations, stating:
- “Mass return and request for a refund.”
- “I almost cried from disappointment.”
- “This is a disgrace. It looks like an AliExpress shirt.”
The vibrant green, intended to reflect the colors of Rotterdam, was strikingly different from what supporters received. The design’s subtle elements, including the ‘F’ from Feyenoord and ’12’ from Het Twaalfde Man, were lost in translation.
Ongoing Issues with Castore
This incident highlights ongoing challenges in the partnership between Feyenoord and Castore. Concerns about product quality, delivery times, and now allegations of ‘deception’ have been recurrent themes.
As fans demand accountability, the future of this collaboration remains uncertain. Will the feedback lead to improvements, or will this serve as another chapter in a troubled partnership?
