EDIT: oh wait you already said your Chelsea Soccer Triad is exactly like your authentic one, so I guess this is all covered already

There's a few other sites like that and the general consensus is that they're all actually legit shirts, they just get them directly from the manufacturing plants so they're retardedly cheap. Think I know whenever I have to get my next jersey that's for damned sure.

Looks like the blue pint-stripe Arsenal away kit has been confirmed and I think for once I might not actually buy the new kit because I find it staggeringly ugly. Maybe seeing the team actually play in it will change my mind, kind of like the old gold SEGA away kit from 01/02

I'm debating whether or not I want to get one of the new Arsenal away kits. Kitbag has them for $60 and they start shipping at the end of June. Shipping is shockingly reasonable for overseas prices.

If you get letters on them know that they're not the normal felt kind and instead are cheapo plastic ones.

looks like you have all of the Arsenal shirts from this year back to at least 01/02, including the thirds. Good work good sir

I have almost all of the shirts going back to the early 90's. The one I'm missing that I really want is the tractor print shirt. But of course because it's so infamous for being so ugly they go for quite a lot on ebay whenever they appear.

Edit: are you a short sleeves purist?

Yeah I an because I live in Florida and there's almost never any need to ever wear slong sleeve shirts. The one I have I think I got because I picked it up in the Arsenal shop for something like �10 and I couldn't pass it up.

or this one? - http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/yivKygLlpf8XC86eliyNCA

The top is probably what you mean, but the bottom one could be construed as tractor print i guess...

I have the bottom one and never wear it.

Second link is blocked by work but the top one is what's considered the Tractor Print shirt because it looks as if a tractor tred went over it.

You only think that because the only team in London that should be wearing a white jersey is Spurs. We should never have any white jersey at all, and to now have another is retarded.

Did you do it in Orlando because if so it doesn't count since British people loving love Orlando. So most of those were probably Brits visiting the states.

90% of English people who have ever been to America went to Florida and Florida only. The other 10% went to New York.

When I went to the US last year whenever anyone at work asked where I went on my holiday and I said "America" pretty much all of them went "oh, Florida?". Most English people have no concept of going anywhere on holiday that isn't a beach or a theme park. Florida has both!

I know, and while sometimes it's interesting because of the jerseys you see on people, I don't get it. I mean yeah we have Disney here, and there are beaches, both of which are hard to come by in England, but if I was a Brit I'd want to say visit the Rockies, or the Grand Canyon, any place that has geography that you'll never ever see in Britain in a million years.

Then again I prefer to spend my vacations in a cold and damp country getting piss drunk and screaming with some 60k other people.

I live in Orlando and work at a miniature golf course about fifteen minutes up the road from Disney. About 2/3 of our customers are English, and quite a few of them do wear jerseys out and about. Also an unholy number of them are from Birmingham, and down to the last man, every single one of those have been West Brom fans. I haven't met another Aston Villa supporter the whole time I've been working there.

From what I remember reading on here, they're almost indistinguishable from the real deal. Seems like they're counterfeits being made in factories with the real materials, but not on official time. Also, be sure that you're a men's size medium or extra large, 'cause I think those were the only two sizes

Except they're not really. I ordered one of the Arsenal away-blues thinking it'd be decent since everyone says they are.

It was loving terrible. The badge was completely wrong, like they had someone attempt to draw the Arsenal logo by hand and then stitched something from that design. The premiership patches weren't right and the name + number on the back could've been right, but they were the cheap heat-pressed vinyl numbers instead of the fuzzy ones that you normally get.

All in all a pretty poo poo shirt that I doubt I'll ever wear and I won't get anything from them again.

It also doesn't have the "don't tread on me" slogan with the snake curled around a ball on the back side of the federation patch.

Haha I've had my away jersey for a few weeks now and never noticed that there on the patch.

For the Arsenal kids on Triads someone pointed out to me the surefire way to tell they're fake. They hosed up the crest. On the real one the blues taper down, but on the fakes there's a blue ring around the entire thing. Seems like something pretty simple to get right, but they haven't, and all their preview pics even show it as well.

No, on the authentic one look inside the actual jersey, behind where the badge is sewn on. There'll be a snack along with DTOM inside the patch stitching.
