I enjoyed this even though I'm still not entirely convinced. I think the reasons you outlined provide a believable explanation for the general idea behind these kits but still there was someone who actually designed them and thought they looked good enough to present to other people within Adidas who looked at them and thought they were good enough to be displayed on the biggest sporting arenas in the world and TV audiences of millions. It's simply impossible to understand how those pants didn't make someone with enough authority say "this cannot be launched". There has to be more behind all this.
