Fans are loving one particular item from Liam and Noel Gallgher’s Oasis Adidas tour merchandise so much that the garment has sold out before officially going on tour
Items from the new Oasis tour range are already selling out on the Adidas website – and that was BEFORE they officially went on sale.
At 9.15pm on Thursday Adidas announced their new adidas Originals x Oasis Live ‘25 apparel collection with 26-piece range of timeless sportswear branded staples in various colours including tracksuits and T-shirts. But in the accompanying advert, Liam is wearing a khaki coach jacket, and unsurprisingly that is the thing most fans want.
Although sales are not due to start until 9am Friday, regular users of the Adidas website can join the ‘Adi Club’ and had access to the items to buy on Thursday night. By 5am on Friday, the Khaki coach jacket was showing as sold out and even the black version only had limited sizes. Some of the coloured bucket hats were also shown as sold out.
It’s thought there will be more stock in stores and with the tour not yet started, Adidas is expected to replenish stocks, but the appeal of some items is clearly strong based on the first hours of sales.
And fans were sure to be in the mood to see Oasis live after watching Liam and Noel back together in the new Adidas advert. It was the first time they had been pictured together since the Oasis global tour was announced.
In the promo video, the Oasis anthem Live Forever can be heard and there are scenes reminiscent of early Oasis gigs with fans wearing new Adidas clothing complete with the famous Oasis band logo.
Footage of giant Adidas footballs which were kicked out at the start of the Knebworth concerts could also be seen. At one point a tambourine appeared to hit ice and Liams voice could be heard saying: “There are days when you are in the zone, you know what I mean? You just stand perfectly still while there’s all this chaos going on around you. Not feeling the need to join in the madness, just thinking, this is the best feeling in the world. Just absolutely still.”
Liam and Noel could then be seen heading to stage ready to play a gig before the final shot of the advert showed them reunited and posing together. Liam’s comments on the advert in some ways describe his posture on stage. He is well known for not dancing or moving, singing up to the mic with his trademark pose with his hands behind his back.
No doubt whilst he does that later this month at the reunion shows there will be “chaos” in the crowd as thousands of fans enjoy the first Oasis shows for 16 years.
In April, they started filming a new promo campaign for Adidas. Rather than make music the Gallaghers were all smiles as they were spotted arriving separately at a working men’s club in Newington Green, London.
It was understood at the time they were shooting promo material for Adidas as part of a new planned collaboration with the sports brand. Adidas will make their own range now based around the Oasis Live 25 tour.
In the past both Liam and Noel have also released their own Adidas trainers and Noel has spoken in the past about being obsessed with trainers.
Oasis split following a backstage bust-up between the Gallaghers at Rock en Seine festival in Paris in 2009. But thankfully the brothers have now made up and it is believed Liam made the first move to patch things up.
Noel and Liam will walk on stage for the first time together in public, since the band split nearly two decades ago, on July 4 at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium. There will also be dates in Manchester, London and Dublin as part of the tour.
