Rangers 20-21 Kits: Leak Authenticity: 50%
While we are sure that the Rangers kits have been created by Emre Gultekin, it is not certain that they are the actually jerseys. They could also be design proposals for Castore.

All in all, we think that there are only two chances of what they are: the actual kits or design proposals.
