Celtic had a new boot deal lined up for the 1967 European Cup Final. Boots with the famous three stripes.But Neilly Mochan, the Celtic kitman, was not about to send his players out for the biggest match in the club's history in boots they hadn't broken in. So he took the boots they already wore, and painted them. Three stripes added on the side. The big cat logo on the heel coloured in. In photographs from that night, on Cesar's boots, you can still see Mochan's handiwork.That night, Cesar led the Lisbon Lions to the most famous result in British football. The gesture, the quiet professionalism that prepared those boots, is what the design holds.A small story about a small moment, half an hour before the biggest moment of all.
