Celtic have launched their new third kit for the upcoming season - to a mixed supporter reaction.
The new Hoops jersey, modelled by centre-half Stephen Welsh, is a white strip with green and pink vertical lines and a slick dark green collar.
The club teased the kit which had also been leaked across social media in recent weeks, sparking debate among fans over its popularity.

Some told of their admiration for the 'smart' Adidas outfit, explaining how they'd be quick to queue up to buy. "Cracking kit," one said. Another added: "Take ma money". One wrote: "Love it," with a love-eyes emoji while a fourth commented: "Adult size without the Dafabet sponsor and Iāll buy it!"
Others were not quite so enamoured with the Ā£115 all-in adult kit and made their feelings known. One wrote: "Have Adidas lost the plot?" Another said: "horrid, surely some fan feedback would've been warranted here before releasing".
One commented: "Disappointed tbh," while a fourth added: "Yous have to start getting the fans involved in designing new strips."
It comes as fans were shown the away kit for next term recently which was unveiled to much more positive reviews.
