I'm going to take a picture of my jersey collection tonight. 75% of them were bought via Eurosport/soccer.com.

(I figure I'll show off the collection now as I'm still young enough that having a bunch of team kits isn't lame or creepy.)

Post up yours, doods.

lol, cow...let's just say i hit the paydirt when i supported my little brother's soccer team by buying all of their gear with my goal club card...

didn't pay for everything obviously but racked up the points.

BARELY enough to get me something nice haha.

I get a lot of my jerseys from Eurosport, but I also get a few from Classic Football Shirts : retro vintage soccer jerseys .. Its a great place to shop for kits that have been discontinued, or if you're looking for hero shirts, like an Henry kit from 2003.

Speaking of which, does anyone else think that France's new away kit is hot?

Awesome! Thanks for the tip! Their selection is fantastic. I'm definitely going to get something.

Today felt like a "remember the good times" day, so I'm rocking a 1996 Zidane Juventus home strip. I've got to say, though, new jerseys are a less "itchy."

Hell yeah I do. I fcuking LOVE it. I've got mine preordered through soccer.com (got like two Goal Club points for it

).

cow · 03-30-2011, 10:28 AM

I kind of want this kit.

Tamoil was Juventus' 2004 season Champions' League sponsor, but you couldn't get the kit from an American vendor as the company is based in Libya & America has an embargo against the country. I'm sure I could have acquired it if I'd tried, but it wasn't a huge deal; that said, I think it'd be neat to own the strip because of that weird little piece of trivia.

Not sure if I'll get it, though, because I have the same year's Serie A kit & never take it out my closet because I hate the way it fits (it bunches under my arms).

cow · 03-30-2011, 10:57 AM

Back on the France kit, I was thinking about kits I've loved over time & this is probably my favorite strip ever. Home & away are both fantastic & the goalkeeper shirt is great too.

I have the home & goalkeeper shirt so far (like I said, the away is pre-ordered) & I feel like I could wear any of them normally if there were no number & people wouldn't think "soccer shirt." They're so damn classy.

(I was thinking about this at work-- it's a wonder I've still got a job. *runs to touch wood*)

looks okay to me.

lol so i went to shoot around on the bball court yesterday. unplanned, was just going to lift weights, but i had my usa soccer shirt on. damn, those sleeves give NO play whatsoever. could barely get my shot off correctly, they kept pulling my arms downwards haha

oh WOW, that site has J-league shirts! too bad my 'hometown' Urawa Red Diamonds come only as large as 'M'...ugh!

it's so hard to get J-league shirts outside of Japan.

i should totally dork out and grab this:

and LOL oh dear. we won the double, but god i hated this kit:

cow · 03-30-2011, 12:01 PM

the electric banana!

Jon@AAMComp · 03-30-2011, 01:00 PM

Classic Football Shirts has everything, I've been ordering from them for some time now. They have international teams as well as club teams on the site. It takes a while to get the shirts here using Royal Mail, but it's worth it to have a rare shirt that you can't find anywhere else.

Your FA winning season shirt, what a dreadful kit that was. The 90s had some of the most abysmal shirts.

My next purchase:
Glenn Hoddle, Mark Hughes and Ruud Gullit era Chelsea

cow · 03-30-2011, 01:03 PM

I need a Zidane France 98 kit & a Euro 2000 kit.

cow · 03-30-2011, 01:06 PM

I don't see a Zidane kit from that year. Is there an "add name" option?

phelan · 03-30-2011, 01:23 PM

i don't think they do custom at that shop. they just have a humongous inventory of rare shirts.

debating grabbing one of hte highbury memorial shirts...

cow · 03-30-2011, 02:46 PM

Do they have an Henry large? I know I could check for myself, but you know...

I've got that one in XL, but it's huge on me so I rarely rock it.

phelan · 03-30-2011, 03:04 PM

they have ljungberg

cow · 03-30-2011, 03:12 PM
