Botafogo–Approve Tee With ‘Ningém’ Typo Sells Out as Club Promises Corrected Deliveries

The club pledged to deliver corrected items to buyers.

Overview

  • The limited Botafogo–Approve streetwear drop included a T‑shirt misprinted with “ningém” instead of “ninguém,” a phrase from a popular supporters’ chant.
  • The misprinted T‑shirt priced at R$279.99 and a baseball‑inspired shirt with the phrase correctly embroidered at R$479.99 both sold out quickly.
  • Botafogo said the flawed listing was pulled and assured that all purchases will be fulfilled with corrected merchandise.
  • An Approve co‑founder told O Globo the factory has remade the misprinted pieces and a restock of corrected items is planned.
  • Approve’s website featured product footage showing the error, which drew social‑media attention and questions over review and quality control.
