Loja Club Deportivo - The Spanish Tercera DivisiĆ³n side really took their shirt sponsorship seriously during the 2018/19 season with all of their shirts displaying 5 prawns across them. Frozen food company Apolo really got their money's worth.Ā š¦

Athletic Club - During the 97/98 season Athletic Club released this Anniversary Shirt that featured a lion based on the clubās nickname Los Leones (The Lions).
