During the World Cup, you may have seen those mysterious Puma ads starring a bunch of footballers (Pires, Ljungberg etc.) and some old dude named Pele, who pops up at the end to say, ‘Wilkommen zum fussball’ in a voice that makes him sound like your confused grandfather.

Available from Kitbag for £99.
