Because the shops don’t fucking sell them, and that makes me sad for some reason.
They’re just on like Temu and shit like that, usually with weirdly small black panels.

I really don’t like what copyright leaves us with.
In my opinion these are all kind of secondary to the massive commercialisation of sports. This leads to exclusivity deals for all kinds of classic cultural icons. I know this example demonstrates that it’s been this way for at least fifty years (the Telstar design is from 1974) but I’d wish parties like FIFA would stop selling out this much and at least make the ball designs open enough.
There’s something to be argued for the jacuzzification of this particular football design, so perhaps you can get away with selling these, but I don’t think any ball company is willing to take the cost of the lawsuit even if they win.
