Hye all sifus..I just want to start a topic of discussion that I want to know the answer..Im sure a lot of sifus here can help answer so its also knowledge that could could be shared with everyone here..
Ok..I just saw Malaysia vs Myanmar and I saw a lot of fans wearing the Malaysian jersey which is something to be proud of..but Im sure more than 50% of the fans were wearing uptown or pasar malam jersey which is the un-authentic jersey..
let me say this..some might buy it coz they cant afford the originals one..some just buy it coz its cheap..either way, its up to the individual who buys it..now..a few pages back, someone asked when the national team jersey will restock..which no one could answer..my topic of discussion is y is it easier to find an EPL or La Liga or foreign team jersey in MALAYSIA than finding the national team of MALAYSIA's own jersey in MALAYSIA?
You can find the latest Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Barcelona, even the jerseys of smaller teams jerseys in Malaysia than finding a Malaysian jersey..Who is to blame? The boutiques such as Nike or Al-Ikhsan or Real One? The manufacturers Nike? or FAM?
How can Man Utd or Utd Direct, produce the Champions League jerseys many times after it goes out of stock, yet in Malaysia, its so hard to get the national team jersey? I know the demand is high for the Malaysian team jersey but so are the demands for the jerseys of Man Utd, Liverpool etc yet we dont hear problems with people trying to find it in local stores.. and even if there is no stock at all in local stores (which I doubt has ever happen) people can go to online shops for the jerseys..can we find the national team jerseys when we go online and shop overseas? even if we do find any stock, the authenticity and price will be have a huge question mark around it..
I have no ill feelings towards any EPL teams coz I too am a jersey collector..but when I read the post a few pages back that our friend has been waiting for the restock of the national team jersey since April then May and now June, what is going on? Dont tell me they have already stop producing the jerseys? why would they do such a thing? if the demand is high, why produce such a limited quantity? U can still find England's 2010 world cup jerseys in shops in the UK and also maybe even locally here..why is it so hard for Malaysians to find a jersey of their national team? n then people will come and complain and say there will be more Malaysians wearing the jerseys of the EPL teams than the national teams in the upcoming friendlies..where to find Malaysian team jersey? out of stock everywhere..ultimately some will go to uptown and pasar malam to get their jersey..
so who are to blame? Nike? FAM? I ask here for the sifus to shed light on the issue..I thought of bringing this matter up in some sports related newspapers but I think it would be better to ask the sifus here for their comments and opinions first..Im no pro and no sifu..just a confused football jersey collector who wants to learn more about these issues..
I appologise if I sounded rude or stupid..my post is with all sincerity and honesty to know what is going on with this issue..if I offended anyone, I appologise with all sincerity I have..thanks

yeah bro, I've been waiting for ages but then Nike just confirmed on their facebook page that Malaysian kit restock will be from the first week of July.
I think this seller is the same seller with the id celica something something.. he/she makes repro namesets/patches.. not authentic but repros. repros are in a grey area.. sometimes when you have no choice, you go for it. some are ok with this, some are not. personal preference
