Authentic 2006–2008 Celtic FC Away Shirt by Nike (Code 146915)
Secure a timeless treasure from mid-2000s Scottish football history with this verified original 2006 Celtic away shirt manufactured by Nike under official style code 146915. Fielded as the secondary kit during the 2006/07 campaign and retained as the third jersey for the 2007/08 season, this shirt remains one of the most distinctive and highly sought-after Nike designs from Celtic’s modern European era.
Nakamura Free-Kicks, European Glory & Nike FIT Engineering
This 2006 Celtic away shirt balances dark, imposing aesthetics with refined heritage detailing. Built on a rich black torso, the front panel features thick dark green vertical stripes framed by delicate gold trim piping. The crewneck collar and sleeve cuffs are finished in clean black knit, creating a sleek profile that stood out dramatically under the floodlights.
The chest proudly displays the embroidered Celtic FC four-leaf clover crest over the heart—highlighting the single star commemorating the 1967 Lisbon Lions European Cup triumph—paired with the embroidered gold Nike Swoosh on the right chest and principal partner Carling printed bold across the central torso. The 2006–2008 cycle delivered unforgettable magic under manager Gordon Strachan: Celtic captured back-to-back Scottish Premier League titles and lifted the 2007 Scottish Cup, while famously reaching the knockout stages of the UEFA Champions League in consecutive seasons. This shirt is forever associated with Japanese maestro Shunsuke Nakamura, whose world-class technique and sublime free-kick goals against Manchester United and Dundee United defined the era. It was worn on the pitch by fan-favorite icons including Nakamura, Aiden McGeady, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, Artur Boruc (“The Holy Goalie”), Scott Brown, Thomas Gravesen, Stephen McManus, Gary Caldwell, Lee Naylor, and Paul Hartley. Engineered from Nike’s breathable, moisture-wicking Nike FIT technical polyester, original 2006–2008 away tops in well-preserved XL condition under code 146915 remain essential additions for Celtic faithful and global shirt archivists.
