RANGERS and Castore have today opened the doors on the new Ibrox shop in a landmark moment in their retail partnership.
The Light Blues clinched a multi-million pound deal with the Liverpool-based sportswear experts earlier this summer and Castore have seen huge demand for the home and away kits that Steven Gerrard’s side have sported so far this term.
Rangers’ merchandise space at Ibrox has undergone a complete revamp in recent weeks and supporters were given their first glimpse of the rebranded ‘Rangers Store’ at the launch event on Thursday morning.

And Castore co-founder Tom Beahon believes a major milestone has been reached as many fans get set to spend their cash on club products for the first time in several years.
“It is a massive moment in the partnership between Rangers and Castore,” Beahon said. “And I think a massive moment for the fans as well.
“We said from the start of this partnership that the football club deserves a store and the fans deserve a store that they can really call their own and that is exactly what they will have.
“We have invested a significant amount – about £250,000 – in completely overhauling the store, both the interior and the exterior.
“It will look very different as to how it did under the previous partner. I can’t wait to see what the fans think of that.
“We really wanted to create an Ibrox store that was in line with other leading European football clubs and hopefully that is what we have achieved.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
