Everton and their technical sponsor, Hummel, have made four limited edition space-themed shirts that managed to travel near space. They are up for auction.
Hummel eventually brought the design to life as part of Everton Free School's 10th anniversary.
The special shirts were originally designed by the Toffees' Football College student, Ethan. The Merseyside club's technical sponsor, Hummel eventually brought the design to life as part of Everton Free School's 10th anniversary.
The Danish sportswear brand made four limited edition jerseys based on Ethan's design and launched them near space in a weather balloon, traveling up to 30km in altitude.
That event happened back on September 23, 2022, and now those four shirts are made available through an auction.
Making them more special, the limited-edition shirts also have the autograph from Everton's men and women players. Unfortunately, the men's and women's teams are only signing two different shirts.
So those looking to collect signatures from both the men's and women's teams must bid for at least two shirts.
In terms of design, the special shirts have a black and white color combination with an interesting drawing of how the Earth looks from space.
Despite not being an official match kit, the limited-edition shirt also has the club's badge on the left and Hummel's logo on the right side.
Those who are getting the shirt will also receive a certificate of authenticity from the club.
The auction for all four shirts started on January 11 and is set to end on February 10. The whole auction process is being handled by NCM Auctions and the starting bid is 50 GBP.
