* PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN BUYING THESE ITEMS...

1. If you buy from local shops, make sure you insist on receipt.. so if you want a refund if you found the NNs/patches to be fake, easy.. got proof
2. If you buy from online (ebay or overseas seller), ask in the forum or pm myself if you need second opinion to see if it's authentic or not. I will not be held responsible if the item is found to be fake later.

I will update this page from time to time, if you guys have any useful info.. please PM me.. Thanks!

Here is the list of names/address/contact information of local sports shops that have a previous and currently proven record of selling authentic items (jerseys, namesets and badges). As you all know, one of the rules and principles of all JCs (Jersey Collectors) are to say no to fake jerseys, NNs and badges.

We had a case with one of our previously recommended and endorsed shop somewhere in KL who we previously trusted and recommended to our friends and other fellow JCs. But in early 2008, 2 of their employees broke our trust and started to sell fake namesets and badges. Our mistake was not to spread this news because we though it was a one off case and we had good faith on that shop. But sadly it became worst because many people fell victims to these 2 unethical sellers who preyed on naive and innocent buyers who wanted to buy original items and paid the items with prices that matches authentic items. Is it unethical but at the end they got away with it because we didn't have any proof against them. It is funny to see how they pretend they didn't know about it and were plain cowards for not admitting it or still claiming that it's authentic. And at the end, the tauke himself said to one of our mates in the JC group to trust him more than us. That really upset us because we were wasting time giving them chance to sort out things, trusting and endorsing them, and at the end.. after trying to gain back our trust and believe on them.. we were scolded back as if we were the one starting the fuss. Takkan pokok bergoyang kalau tiada angin bertiup.. right?

So what we can do now is.. for the sake and safety of other JCs, newbies and friends out there is to list down the local and foreign sports shops that are guaranteed to sell authentic items and are personally endorsed by us. We might not have 10 years experience of selling items (quoted by someone who claims that players actually wear jersey with PU typed NNs during matches because they are light.. WTF..?) but we know our stuff. And I have black and white proof to back that up.

Anyway if you want to visit the recommended shops that we endorse, here they are:

Let's continue our discussion in this new thread!

Sorry to say this... Jersey looks fake to me..

The club crest should be bigger than the V chevron:


The AIG logo looks fat. And the jersey has the very rare RESPECT patch.. which even the authentic replica jerseys don't have yet hehe..

Since I've bought the Italy home 2008 jersey that is made by puma using USP technology... there is a need to be careful when ironing it...



This Italy jersey uses the USP technology:



Some information on puma's USP technology:



These jerseys have a unique mesh material on some areas of the jersey (mainly on the front). As you can see below, the front material (on the outside) looks like a net:


In reality, there are 2 separate layers. One is the outer layer (that looks like a net) as shown above, another layer is the inner layer as shown below:



Now.. as jerseyman advised previously.. washing your jersey in my opinion and then ironing it helps to prolong it's lifespan if you tend to wear it.. Of course, the best method to keep your jersey forever is by keeping it untouched.. Then keeping it in plastic covers is another story. But if you want to iron your puma USP tech jerseys after you've washed and spin dried them.. be careful..

Do not:



Why?

Although it is recommended to iron press beneath your jersey's club crest, sponsors and nameset (to enhance the glue bonding) for the puma USP tech jerseys.. there are 2 separate layers.. By doing so (with no cover between the inner and outer layer) will cause the club crest/puma logo that is applied on the outer layer to bond and stick with the inner layer.. This causes the jersey to not function using it's USP technology as optimum as possible (bad ventilation) and it doesn't feel nice... right?

For all.. I mean all puma jerseys that uses this USP technology.. notice on the front layer (bottom half), there is a small gap hole located as shown below:



At first I though that my jersey has a torn stitching on the bottom half (front layer).. but it was actually intended to be there.. Why? So that you can insert into the gap hole (in between the 2 layers) a paper cover that you can use to cover beneath the club crest/puma logo. This gap hole can also be used to insert a cover that covers when you want to print the front number in front of the jersey (for national team jerseys)...

To be continued..

Continued..

Here's how to do it..

First, look for a rough paper that you can use as a cover. I've opted for the oil paper that normally comes together in plastic bags of jerseys. Then I cut it to make it a small rectangular shape as shown below:



Then I insert the paper into the gap hole:


Then.. place the paper beneath where the club crest or puma logo sits:


You can then cover the club crest/puma logo with plain white cloth before you iron on top of it. This is to avoid iron marks or ruining the crest/logo:



You can sprinkle some water before you iron. Then iron press it gently.. the idea is just to enhance the glue bonding and to make the crest's surface ironed and smooth:



After you've done that.. notice that the crest/puma logo will not stick on the paper cover. If it does, it might be minimal and can be peeled off easily:



Next step is to iron the puma logos near the shoulders.. To do this, as usual, slide the paper cover up to the area where the puma logo near the shoulder sits:



Then.. As what was done earlier.. Cover the area with plain cloth and then iron press it.. This will help bond the glue of the puma logo and crests.. Have fun!

Yes taiko.. I remember you telling me this way back in 2008.. You went to ali and applied the NNs there, for your brother I think. I remember you telling me about it (the need to insert extra paper cover for front number printing)..

Thanks

Yes, the same.

No problem..

Yes.. please share with us the final result. Be careful when DIYing your jersey..

Ah.. I checked my Italy, Cameroon and Austria (puma USP jerseys)..

They all can be inserted with the paper cover up to the puma logos near the shoulders..



What was I thinking yesterday.... haih.. My eyes deceived me. Maybe I'm too tired.

Proof that jerseyman is human after all...

So I will make some amendments to my previous guide.. Apologies for the mistake... Hehehe...

Of course it will melt.. if you apply iron on top of it directly.

Which is why you have to cover it with plain cloth before you iron on top of it.

Hehehe..

After seeing your england jersey... it brings me back memories of the old issue that was discussed in LYN way back in 2007. Almost 3 years ago!

Back then.. there were some 'so called' reject jerseys lurking around at FOS Stores around a lot of malls. What they sold were:

1. Inter Milan Home (03-04)
2. Arsenal Home (02-04)
3. Man United Home (02-04)
4. England Home Reversible (03-04)
5. Chelsea Home Reversible (03-05)
6. AC Milan Home (03-04)
7. Real Madrid Home (03-04)

The jerseys were fake because they all had the same serial number (based on manufacturers). For nike kits (Man Utd, Inter, Arsenal) all had same serial number, for adidas kits (AC Milan, Real Madrid) also same serial number and for umbro kits (England, Chelsea) too.

Then there was an issue when this seller called vincentmomo was caught red handed by my investigation that the jerseys he was selling were the same as what was sold at FOS store. To read the story again, here is the link: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=13479735



So the England jersey you had indeed has the SAME serial number that I mentioned back in 2007 (which is 01179158). I couldn't see them back then but yet, I was right.

These fakes were a once in a lifetime batch made from China. They had almost the same characteristics, multiple sizes (M-XXL) but they had some poor quality embroidery etc etc. So the one you had was from the FOS store. Not from some reject store in UK...

That answers question 1.

For question 2. Did you wash your jerseys using washing machine? This is because you washed your jersey using washing machine right? I've always advice you guys never to use washing machine to wash jerseys.. You can use the washing machine to spin dry your jersey but do it for 1 minute only.

How to avoid it, is to wash your jerseys using hands in the future. Then spin dry using your washing machine. Then iron it to make look nice, smooth and neat.

If you didn't wash it using washing machine.. then tell me how did it happened?.. Just wondering mate.

They were comfy because they were made in china and the same umbro kits were actually made in china.

After washing and spin drying, you have to iron them.. Especially the areas where there is the PU sponsors and sizing info near the collars. But DON'T IRON ON TOP OF THE PU SPONSORS! Terbalikkan your jersey first and iron press them.. it helps to bond the glue and make it smooth and nicer.

This tells enough that the France jersey is authentic:

The jersey is a bit blurry but I tried to do a closeup to the price tag.. It has the correct light blue coloured barcode sticker on the price tag...

Too hard to tell.. The jersey could be authentic but the embroidery could be DIY because the quality is a bit so so to me....

Although the FCB crest is a bit senget.. this doesn't tell the authenticity. Sometimes it could be like that because of photographic illusions.. Best is to ask the seller to show more close up photos to tell is it authentic or not...
