Probably Iowa or something. But their great grandpas were 1/4th Italian. Got to love World Cup time.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at since I spent the day arguing with a customer on how having family from Italy and a prediliction towards clothes that say "Italia" is no excuse not to support you country. But if he's from Ireland, then hey.

I agree 100%. I see so much Italia gear here in Texas and it blows my mind. (They sell it on the racks at Target)

Yo MyChemicalImbalance please accept my apologies if you aren't from Iowa. I'm seriously jaded at this point with my compatriots mostly talking about rooting for countries because they have some reaching connections to them.

I've got an old one lying around somewhere. Wanted one from an African team as well for this years competition. It was pretty much down to Ghana or Cameroon as they have the coolest shirt, and I'm not a dirty Chelsea oval office so I went with Cameroon. Choose Eto'o because he shat down the mouth of Guardiola which was hilarious

The Chinese site I've gotten a couple jerseys from for other sports now has a select WC section. No US kits, but they've got the other favored teams. Entire kit (including shorts) for $35.

The site used to be jersey101.com, but now it's yukijersey.com (I don't even know), but the quality is quite good for the price. Same materials and stitching at least on the hockey jerseys so I don't know why the football kits would be any different.

Anyone here know where I can locate an authentic version of this jersey?

Click here for the full 1024x683 image.


Specifically the red one. I've had my family down in Brazil looking for it but they aren't having much success, and online i'm not locating anything reasonable or that isn't sketchy.

I'll even pay a finders fee to anyone who can locate one I can purchase online easily (meaning not having to WU some guy on mercado livre money).

Sorry wasn't specific, it is the goalkeeper kit for the 2010 WC. They most likely won't use these though, just the black one i'd assume.

Only was able to pull up results searching for camisa de goleiro brasil 2010 and variations on that. Looking for the 'vermelha' which is red. Only issue with searching this way is you get a lot of sketchy results or places that are sold out, or mercado which is the Brazil eBay.

That is the issue, they lived in Curitiba which had one but moved a little a bit ago to another state and they can't find anything now.

Shop around for doctors! Always fucking shop for doctors. Doctors are stupid assholes. And they get by because people are cowed by their mystical bullshit quality of being able to maintain a 3.0 GPA at some Guatemalan medical college for 3 semesters. Find one that makes sense.

No it took almost 3 weeks for my US order to get here. Just got my Germany Home kit and Bayern Third kit (going to be outside all summer working at a camp and wanted some white kits, of which I had none) and they both look fantastic. Numbering/lettering is fine, all the seams are clean and the material doesn't feel any cheaper or faker than my 'official' kits. Probably place another order soon.

I would think it would be at least a little faster.

Also, I'm 6'2" and 230 with a big chest and the XL's fit pretty well - they are a bit long but otherwise fine.

I ordered a stack of jerseys without print and they shipped the next day, so hopefully it'll be reasonably fast.

Soccertriads had the 2006 away jersey for a while, but no sign of the 2010 WC Jerseys anywhere.

To buy it in Australia is around $140 :O

They had the aways, but are now sold out. They should be getting more in, the guy is trying to get all of the countries but some (North Kore) are difficult.

I never saw the 2010 aways.
Only ever the 2006 away. :(

EDIT: The one they've listed there is really 08/09, not 2010 WC.

Yeah, I'm Northern Irish, we did it by lottery and forza azzuri I guess. It does give me an excuse to have a Gattuso shirt again though.

My first allegiance in the WC/Euros will always be Holland though, because there's been a serious lack of Northern Irish representation in major competitions lately, I've supported the dutch in quite a few competitions.

I think the first time I chose the Netherlands was like, USA 94 or something.

My FC Barça kit came today from Soccertriads. The only thing I noticed that was 'messy' on it was the 'NikeFIT' logo on the very bottom, the stitching was not great there, but really it's not going to be noticeable unless you're looking there.

Overall, I'm pleased. I'm just waiting for my AC Milan and Chelsea thirds from the clearance to show up now.
