Peru, I suppose. Although I believe Uruguay once had a gear like that...

Celtic is more like it (but that's an oppinion, of course).
I do agree with the stickers idea, but why not carry it a bit further: why
not have opaque stickers (with both team pattern and sponsor) to use with
plain torsos? It would provide a greater flexibility for minifig matches... :-)

Coke is the sponsor for both those teams? I know they suppost Brazil's
national squad, but what about other teams? Coke might be interested in
offering this same promo locally wherever they have a sponsored team - LEGO
would be delighted!
