88 is too "generic" to be banned. The double sig rune in a similar graphic style as the SS symbol is pretty damn specific.
Edit : actually it's nothing like a ban. This is just Adidas understandably trying not to be associated with neo nazis. They could very well "ban" people from buying custom 88 shirts too because of the association and the fact that no actual football player uses it in the first place
