It’s ADIDAS (again!) and KAIYUN SPORTS not MACRON, not BOXT, or UNHCR

Technically we have the revision of that, where they drop the text. (Which looks much nicer imo)

I thought it didn’t say Adidas on our shirts! Which I assume was copying from Nike not saying Nike on their shirts

Correct. Adidas did have the wording on until 2022 when a slight rebranding removed this. It will undoubtedly go back on again in a few years to make the current stuff dated and encourage more sales for people wanting the latest motif.
Adidas carry a couple of motifs simultaneously depending on their target market. Garms carrying the trefoil logo are considered more premium.

But they have starting doing that on trefoil logo now, but I think it looks better with Adidas on it like in the 70s/80s.

Controversial, but IMO the trefoil is the single most overrated thing in all of football shirt design

I think it's the nostalgia that does a lot of the heavy lifting. I must admit I do prefer it to the current motif and would pay more for it. Does that make me stupid for it? Probably yes.

Definitely nostalgia. I'm too young for the trefoil (just) and I prefer the triangle logo. Not really overly fussed though, it's just a tiny logo, hardly a really important part of the shirt design. Also Nike have kicked Adidas off the park in terms of design and quality for at least a decade

Liverpools kit in the 90s with the addidas symbol over the shoulder ruined the new badge for me.

The mickey mousers have signed up with Adidas again, and have binned off Nike.

The proper shirts have the old Adidas logo, so it's the badge for me. We won our greatest prizes wearing that.

When we qualify for Europe I hope we announce those type of retro kits for next season
