Italy Soccer Jersey

msujetfan 89 · 08-25-2009, 10:25 PM

Hey guys, I want to buy an Italian national team jersey for my dad, but all the jerseys I find online say 2006-2008. I was wondering if they are going to get a new jersey for the 2010 World Cup, and I should wait, or if there's going to just be a couple minimal changes and just get it now? Thank you in advance.

That seems far too cheap to be authentic, have you bought something from this site before?

Those are cheap Chinese knockoffs. You can tell because it doesn't have the Puma logo on the jersey.

Italy will most likely have a new kit for the World Cup, but like a previous poster said, it's unlikely to change much. Italy is always the basic blue with the national team crest.

Go to worldsoccershop.com. They're costly, but it's all original stuff AND you can get it customized with your favorite player's name and number.

Is a Puma logo worth another $60 ?

My Arsenal and Santos FC jerseys are just fine .... lightinthebox ALso customizes jerseys - name and n umber - for about $7

Even if you paid $1 for an Arsenal jersey, it still wouldn't be worth it.

Some of us don't sweat $60, but to each their own. I prefer to have the actual official stuff when it comes to team gear.

Whatever .... the extra $60 allows me to get my son another 2 or 3 Wii games AND my jerseys ..... my Santos jersey came with the Umbro patch but the Arsenal jersey had no Nike swoosh

Besides, I actually PLAY in mine (Over 40 league), and no one on the field notices

Naive.

Where do you think they ALL come from, anyway? You think they have elderly Welsh ladies sitting around knitting jerseys?

*62 · 08-26-2009, 07:57 AM

And my Arsenal road blue kit is the sharpest in the Premier League, bar none.

Thanks a lot guys, probably going to get the one from worldsoccershop.

I said Chinese knockoffs because nowadays China is the bootleg capital of the world. Yes, they're all made in China or elsewhere in Southeast Asia, but there is a marked difference in quality between the legitimate manufacturers and the bootleg knockoffs. You'd know this if you were either willing or able to pay full price for the real deal.

Oh and Arsenal eats arse. Liverpool RED is the only way to go.

This place needed a new rivalry.

Does anyone know a Turk who's willing to be a Fenerbache fan?

1) Only my USA MNT jersey and my woolen flannel Mets jerseys are authentic. The Arsenal knock-off weighs exactly the same as the MNT authentic. But you go right ahead; idiots are good for the economy.

2) Just 3 matches in and Liverpool is already half dead; enjoy the rest of the season.

3) You're rather a dick, aren't you? It's your prerogative; be proud. Touch-hole.

1) Do you mean idiots who pay money to AMERICAN companies employing AMERICANS i.e. worldsoccershop.com instead of the frugal geniuses who pay money directly to Chinese copyright pirates? I suppose that I'm one of those then.

2) Yes, 3 fixtures decides the entire season between now and May. It's that same sort of thinking that had the Yankees written off before the All-Star break and where are they now? Oh yeah, the best record in the majors. Arsenal has 6 pts and Liverpool 3. What a HUGE gap. Man Utd lost to Burnley in the 2nd game. BURNLEY?!?! I suppose you're ready to write them off as well.

3) If you had said right off "I'd rather spend my money on my son than blow it on authentic jerseys", I wouldn't have said anything. However, you came off like a cheap douche. I am proud that when I choose to be a dick I do it very well. So, thank you.

*62 · 08-26-2009, 11:41 AM

1) The only American making a buck on any of these jerseys are the drivers who deliver it to my door.
2) Liverpool sucks.
3) Yes, if my son had been around at the time I'd have never blown $375 on a wool flannel "Koosman" jersey; priorities do change. Besides, as I mentioned, my jerseys aren't "accessories"; I sweat in them. $13 kits do nicely, thank you.

It looks like I've done my part right, you can't even spell the *****es name right.
