What do you mean replica, premier and authentic?

Are you worried that the england kit is fake?

There is a reason why it is super cheap (just 14.99 with free printing). This is because kitbag want's to clear out some old dead stock before they launch the new england 2010 away kit next year.

At e-bay I saw so many type of jerseys..its either replica, premier & authentic..like England Away 2008/10 at kitbag.com it stated replica version. Would be good if you could clear my doubt by explaining the different quality between replica, premier & authentic..thank you in advance.. icon_rolleyes.gif

3. Drop down (kick off) jerseys - These are 'budget' wise jerseys made sometimes by nike or adidas meant for fans who want to support a certain team without the requirement to buy the official replica jersey.

Adidas sometimes produces the simple round collar jersey with 3 stripes on the sleeves and mimics the FA/club crest and design of the replica jersey.

Nike sometimes produces the kick off and drop down version of some teams but they are frequently available for FC Barcelona..

Will talk more about this later...

OK, I will explain again what is Nike Kick Off jersey.. If you guys still don't understand, god help us all.

As I said earlier, Nike produced some jerseys known as Kick Off jerseys. These kick off jerseys are meant for supporters or fans who want to buy authentic nike products or jerseys that mimics the replica jersey. It is almost 100% same but it has differences which differ from one to another. The kick off version might not have the same material used, different design of collars, no NikeFIT, etc etc.. And they are priced cheaper (RM149) and that is the purpose.. To be cheap and still authentic.

Malaysia last time had the kick off jersey. The home replica jersey vs the home kick off jersey.. Look at the photos below to see the differences:

Looks almost the same right? But price wise, different. The Malaysia kick off home jersey costs RM149 while the home replica costs RM259. Would you consider buying the kick off jersey if you got tight budget?

Ok, so this season, United and Barca's home jersey has kick off versions being sold at al-ikhsan and nike boutique store. Here's a website selling the barcelona kick off version:

Read what it says in the website above:
The same Barca Home 09-10 kick off jersey shown above is also being sold at Al-Ikhsan and Nike Boutique stores.. It's Made in China, has the normal tag near the collars (not the PU printed like normal) and is RM149 as well....

Here's an ebay seller selling the 2008-2009 Barcelona Away Kick Off Jersey:

Compare the photo of the Kick Off Jersey vs The Replica version:

Barcelona seem to have loads of Kick Off version being sold. Man United rarely have them, there was no kick off version (as far as I know) for last season's home jersey.. I could be wrong though.. But they are rare for United. Even for other teams like Inter, Juve and Arsenal. But there were once and while kick off versions for other teams as well.. maybe not easily found here locally.

Hope you guys understand now...
