Fake.

Well, first of all, the "MANCHESTER UNITED" wording is printed on the white part of the collar instead of on the fabric.




And another issue is that, the club crest is heat glued onto the fabric rather than the ones we get from Nike stores etc which is stitched.



By judging at these few clues, some of you might think this is a player issue shirt as its similar to what was discussed before this.

So its a player issue shirt? Well let me tell you what, the latest 2011/12 player issue shirts have PU printed Nike swoosh logo, DRI-FIT logo, and PU printed club crest.



Also notice the "T" strap on the shoulder. My guess its to hold up the seams? Not sure. And am I the only one noticing that the shirt has a missing sizing info at the collar?

14 years (32"/34") is the largest Junior size and its equivalent to Nike's XLB 32"/35" chest. It is not Junior L.

It was never produced for commercial sale. Therefore, there is no way in getting an official one. Those on eBay are just expensive repro patches.

Hi, yes it is the same.



44"/46" They are in terms of inches for the chest measurement. And player issue shirts are more tighter in cutting especially the sides.

Don't worry. Your shirt is 100% authentic. The label reads L G G is due to the fact that the shirt was meant to be sold in an Asian market. I get what you mean by L , 42-44 etc. Those shirts are for European market.
---------------------------------
Also, the reason to why the mu logo turned green is because of the gold material used is oxidized during the washing process and it will turn greenish. This is totally normal and it occurs on the home shirt as well. Don't be alarmed.

Hmm, few years back sounded a long time ago. Anyway, I am **vin. You got that right.

Well, my honest opinion would be Express shipping. I have never encountered a missing Royal Mail 'twice'. I wouldn't risk it again if I were you. I guess it's just a subtle hint for you to opt for Express this time around. Who knows, they might put you in a blacklist due to frequent missing packages.

Yes they are authentic. But the shearer kit is a repro from kitbag.

Actually there's no fixed way of applying a long nameset. It depends on the kitman's ability to manipulate the position of the template to create a better looking print. Unless the kitman uses a smaller font size or else VDV doesn't really have a choice.


Before and after.

Devil24 is famous for selling repro patches. Those patches are fake but are high quality repro. So if you cannot find the original ones, they could be considered. Nns wise they are authentic. Napoli shirt I'm not too sure perhaps someone could help you on this. =)

Items listed seemed legit and so far 100% positive feedback given. Should be fine.

For sale, PM me for price.

Haha, you can't alter the size. You can either gain weight or sell the shirt and buy a new one.

Be careful with this seller. Already have bad comments about him from other collectors. Note his patches are also fake and he can imitate Lextra products so I'm not surprised he offered you RVN nameset at that price. A genuine player size RVN nameset would cost more than 40 quids easily.

Haha he might just be confused with PU, Senscilia, Lextra etc

KitbagAsia provides option for PU/Senscilia printing on Squad Printings only and not applicable to patches.

Hmm, I think what the system meant was BPL patches player size, and the PU/Senscilia category is for the squad printing.

Not only Kitbag, even Subside does not provide BPL patch printing for the Arsenal shirts. Reason was that the patch does not adhere properly onto the shirt. This was a statement provided by Subside;

Regrettably, we cannot add the premier league patch to this shirt because they will not adhere to the red stripe on the sleeves.

Yes it's authentic. Kitbag used to sell this patch at just GBP1 each. Too bad they no longer have it.
