Inspired by Trainspotting: Begbie Football Shirt
A tribute to one of the most iconic films of the 1990s: Danny Boyle's 1996 adaptation of Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting. We have gone with the white and orange colour scheme to match the posters that appeared on every student's wall in the mid-90s, with the embroidered badge being that of the fictional "FC Lokomotiv Leith" (a play on both the film's title, and its setting in the Leith area of Edinburgh). The main shirt sponsor is "Volcano": the nightclub in which Renton first meets Diane, while the sleeve sponsor is the VHS video "100 Great Goals vol 1" (which is swapped by Renton for Tommy's sex tape featuring him and his girlfriend, Lizzy).
The shirt pattern features the text of Renton's famous "choose life" monologue, which subtly appears against the white body. On the rear, we have the name and number "Begbie #1", again in a nod to the famous poster, while there is also imagery depicting the famous betting shop toilet scene, and 23:02:96; the original release date of the film which also featured regularly in its publicity.
This shirt is being produced by Sigur Sportswear exclusively for RedMolotov.
