Yeah shirts=jerseys, you could also check out american based sites like soccer.com to buy jerseys. The shipping should be much cheaper since they are based in the states.

It's pretty common for leagues to award stars for X number of titles won. I don't know why you're being a dick about this.

It's worth remembering that our new strip will be announced very soon. The reason it's so cheap on the website is because that's the kit for the season just past. Whether that matters or not is up to you. I will say it's very comfy to play in. Ninpo posted:So it begins... Is this what being Champions feels like?

If it's the material I'm thinking it is from that picture it's the same as the England 2010 WC shirt which was probably the most comfortable shirt I ever had. I also think the black looks awesome. Still probably won't be getting one though.

There are two lines of argument for this: a star for a european trophy, or a star for 10 league titles. Pick whichever one your team does, and defend it to the death.

Vagabundo posted:Serie A clubs get a star for every 10 scudettos don't they? Do they have those in other leagues? Yes and it's a point of contention this year because Juventus could have thirty and therefore three stars if they don't count the titles that were stripped during calciopoli. Champions League winners get a patch on their sleeves if they have won the competition 5 times or 3 in a row (same criteria for keeping the real trophy). Only Real Madrid, Bayern, Ajax, Milan and Liverpool have it I think. I feel like there's also a CL title holder badge you can wear during the next year's competition but I dont' remember what it looks like.

Its the inbetween the nike swoosh and the team badge, but it gets replaced by the fifa thing after you inevitably win that in december.

This plastic has had his City shirt long before this season started. In other news, I'm in a huge debate here. I really want to get the Greek national team shirt for the upcoming Euros, as it is sexy as hell and I'm one sexy Greek. Worldsoccershop has the official one, and the material and quality looks top notch. I really appreciate the high quality, but am tempted by the fact that for $20 more I can get FIVE knock-offs from shootjerseys, including a knockoff of the Greek NT. Question I has is this: what type of quality drop should I expect on the Greek kit? Am I going to get some completely different material that will leave rashes and cut my nipples, or will it be a marginal difference that only a die-hard fan or counterfeit agent recognize? Link for sexiness:

I haven't used shootjerseys, but I have used Soccertriads, and the quality is up there, imo. You can notice differences if they're side by side, but you can't tell which one is the authentic and which isn't. I believe they have all the Euro team kits as well.

Speaking of plastics getting shirts, have any other AMERICAN PLASTICS gotten their CHAMPIONS kits yet? Looking forward to pictures to bide the time until I get mine.

I think the 5x versus one marginally better is a pretty easy choice then. Shame these knock-offs don't have the City third shirt from this past season, I have a love affair with that thing and can't wait to pick it up in a few months on the cheap once they start offloading the extras.
