really? 199rm that cheap? thought it will be 250 and above?
home expensive or away?

taikos, any idea how can i peel off the epl patches easily? its very hard la..

depends i doubt it will be RM199 unless they having promotion now.. usually these kits rarely go below the RM200 mark

err end of season kits usually go for that price. if not mistaken its at al-ikhsan sunway.should be the same at all outlets.

Hi taiko, am thinking of buying Manchester United 1996 FA Cup Final Shirt. Is it really machine washable?

It is but in my personal opinion, this is a very poor quality reproduction by Scoredraw. It is not made by umbro.

My personal advice, go and look for the same jersey at ebay.... it can be found easily in ebay.. You might not find the same jersey with the FA Cup Final embroidery, but it is definitely made by umbro.

Thanks for your advice, jerseyman. The price is tempting though

The printing provide by Kitbag for EPL nameset is PU or Lextra?

@Ayaka - PU.

For the rest, pls be informed that ALI has now brought in the latest England 09/11 home kit, for kids, adults and women as well. They also have the GK kit for adults. Prices are RM249 for home ss adults, and RM269 for home ls adults (GK also RM269). Pls note that there is a new sizing measurement for Umbro, best would be to go and try before purchase.

Namesets brought in include Gerrard 4 Lampard 8 Rooney 10, at RM99 per set.

re MyDevil, trust us when we say the repro quality is not really good Agree with Faiz, best to source for the original kit in Ebay.

re AW13, dont you think the NNs for the Engalnd kit is small? hmm

Yes it's quite small, esp the names. But that's the way it is done up though. Would be interesting to see if there are differences to what the players actually have on their shirts.

i'll wait til the WC starts before even putting numbers on my away kit.
cos last match Gerrard wore 11

re Everdying, by then numbers may be "hot" and tough to get:P

Anyway it is normal for Engalnd players to wear different numbers, as it is customary for them to field players wearing numbers 1 - 11 throughout for starting 11. So if your reserves start the gfame, say in a friendly, they will wear those numbers and the "regulars" who may come in at a later stage may wear other numbers from 12 - 23.

But ya, if you are gonna add patches etc to the shirt, its prudent to read on the history of the matches and apply them accrodingly. To be more meticulous, should also see if the player wore a long or short sleeved shirt etc. Just some tips to make collecting more fun

the new england home jersey, which is cheaper, buy online or al ikhsan, but then need to check the sizing there first la..ha..ha

hi All,
anyone knows where can get old jerseys from around My or singapore?
looking for 97-2003 umbro jerseys..esp the chelsea autoglass kit
Thanks

Saw the new England jersey. I must say it looks good but the only downside is that its very thin and when you sweat, its gonna be quite transparent. Even more if you're a girl, please make sure you wear the right undergarments.

As for the material, i think its 20% cotton and the rest some synthetic lightweight material. So beware of wear and tear due to washing.

Where did u see it? How much?
anyways, has anyone been to BB Plaza recently? if yes, are the UCL patches and NNs for Man Utd 3rd kit still available at Al-Ikhsan or Real One? Might be going there this weekend. Thanksss.

bump...

Let me share with you guys here, my review on the new England home kit.. This review is taken from the My-FJC forum:

As an england fan....jerseyman will buy the England home & away kit no matter how good or bad it looks like..

So I got mine here from kitbag. It arrived last monday..


I had mix feelings for this jersey.... For old skool and retro design lovers, you guys will love this kit. Everything about this kit is old skool... But sometimes you do feel cheated because of the quality of the material used and how it was constructed. For non-jersey loving people, when they see this kit, what will they say?

"It looks awful"

"It looks like a t-shirt to me"

I don't know why.. but I would have to agree with them on reasons that the jersey has a material that is not much different to a polo t-shirt...



The crest is stitched directly on to the jersey's surface, compared to the past when the crest is stitched on a different material and then applied and stitched on the crest's border on the jersey.

There are some small holes found on the back and the armpit of the jersey. Maybe to 'enhance' ventilation (I don't see or feel the effect anyway..)


But I do love the old skool presentation:


I bet aprilia_8080 would love the price tag..

Even the way the price tag is tied to the jersey is old skool. But this method is risky because people can easily scam others with this method. Say that you want to sell the same jersey that is used (2nd hand).. but you can claim that it is BNWT.. how? Find the same tag and just tie the string back... Too easy...

continued...

Other features of the jersey:


Overall review of this jersey:

Design: 4 out of 5 (old skool)
Material: 2 out of 5 (it looks and feels like a t-shirt.. as if no polyester was used but in fact it was... mixture of polyester + cotton)
Cutting: 4 out of 5 (customized up to chest measurement.. but beware that it is a bit baggy)
Comfortness: 3 out of 5 (comfy but still feels like wearing a t-shirt)
Overall: 3 out of 5
