The German F.A. has said it will change the typeface of its latest kit after it was pointed out to them that the number 4 bears a startling resemblance to half of the S.S. logo and a certain type of person might try to personalise number 44 shirts. The shirts are the design of Nike, who are protesting complete innocence.
At least when The Stone Roses were designing the One Love cover they weren’t creating something meant to represent the entire German nation…
WTF?: How Can This Happen Innocently?

Because everyone involved in the selection and approval chain is probably under 35.
I suspect shirts with 18 or 88 in that typeface might sell well, too
Weren’t bonehead types wearing “Lonsdale” sweatshirts at one point, as the NS (National Socialist) letters were apparent when the shirt was worn under an open jacket? Maybe they also wore shirts with Kansas, Manson, and Sensor on.
A cynic might think that a disgruntled employee of Adidas – who were in now in bed with a well known African-American antisemite – were exacting a petty revenge on the German FA after losing the contract.
Oh no.
Not me.
You never lost control?

Coincidence?
Yes.
