minus-squareTheGrandNagus@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up31arrow-down1·edit-28 months agoJust this specific design of football shirt, because the font Adidas used makes this look like the SS symbol. Of course football kits don’t usually go up to 44, because there aren’t that many on a team even accounting for reserves. This only exists if you buy a custom shirt with a custom 1-99 number on it and a custom name at the top. I can see how it didn’t get spotted sooner.
