On Sunday the 11th of October we had the opportunity to host our first Pop-Up Shop event for FC CLASSICO at the Well Bean Co – Café in the Docklands. The day has been a great success making all of us looking forward for more and what’s to come. It was great welcoming the community and let them have their own look at the products, giving them the opportunity to feel the stock in hand and try it on as well. We managed to have a good environment allowing people to get a coffee, get into chats with the team or other people from the community and have a look at our stock. Also, they had the opportunity to take pictures with our special guests, cardboard figures of Ruud Gullit, Zinedine Zidane and the one and only Diego Maradona. Legends of the game. As a special we also had some new shirts we didn’t publish on the website yet to give incoming people the chance to see them for the first time. Shirts from across the world, every decade, legends and as well a huge variety of national teams and clubs. A 2007/2008 Barcelona Away shirt with Messi still wearing No. 19, a Manchester United Away shirt from 1999/2000 with Roy Keane on the back and the Napoli Maradona tribute shirt are only a few of the great shirts we had on display. There was something for every taste. Next to the traditional retro shirts we got to display our new pieces from COPA and NR, which were fitting perfectly with their reissued collections. Especially the NR Serie A classics are outstanding, worth to look at if you want to add a unique piece to your collection. A great addition to the event was the UEL football team coming in and a good number of players helping to run the pop-up and creating a good atmosphere for incoming costumers. From helping to load stock on to the van to helping to run the pop-up and cleaning the space up afterwards was a great effort and is really appreciated. We also had other UEL sport scholar programs and students attending just looking at our stock and some of them leaving with a new shirt in their collection. It was great to see the Docklands community showing up for the event and to get closer with each other, while putting ourselves out there. We really appreciate the Well Bean Co – Café for their cooperation and the opportunity to give us a space for the event. We are happy how the event went and hope everyone who attended had a good time as well. Thank you all for joining us for that special day and can’t wait for our next event. Hope we will see you there again and make FC CLASSICO grow together.
