Smells Like a COPA Football Shirt

In terms of popular cultural impact, football and music have walked hand-in-hand since the 1960s when George Best became the world's first rockstar footballer and earned himself the nickname 'the fifth Beatle'. We specialize in football but draw inspiration from music too, our office is even located in an old rock venue. So we have combined these twin passions to create a unique football-themed tribute to one of our musical heroes.

Kurt Cobain was the influential lead singer of mighty Nirvana, the band from Aberdeen, Washington that revolutionized alternative rock in the early 1990s and remains a huge influence on many a quarter of a century later.

The year 1991 saw the band release the ground-breaking 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' single, which served as a memorable taster for the celebrated 'Nevermind' album that followed later in the year. The rawness and energy of the band's breakout song were brilliantly captured in the accompanying video. The shirt that Kurt Cobain wore during that performance influenced this special COPA ‘Smells Like a Football Shirt’ release. With this football shirt, we pay homage to the cultural impact Nirvana had and still has 25 years later. So wear your Kurt Cobain shirt with pride and Come As You Are.
