Soccer matches are all about team spirit and energy whether you’re a player on the field or a spectator on the stands. And what better way to show your support and loyalty than to wear your soccer team jerseys. It’s a much sought after fashion statement and a stamp of patriotism - prerequisites for any fan worthy of his/her team…
Come one, come all!
The FIFA World Cup and UEFA Champions Cup have made soccer one of the most popularly followed sports today. And this craze cuts across all demographics. It doesn’t matter if you’re male or female, young or old, rich or poor, employed or unemployed. Soccer is a great leveler. And a fan is a fan is a fan… That’s your only identity. A direct result of this mania is a huge demand for soccer jerseys – replicas, originals, retro, home and away kits.
Wear your heart on your sleeve
Fashion and sport brands have jumped in to meet this demand. The soccer jersey has evolved over the years and today the choices are endless, the styles are modern as personal preferences are catered to. Fans don their local club colors as well as their national team’s soccer gear. They’re available both online and offline, but when confronted with so many options it can get a little confusing to decide on a specific soccer jersey that also suits your budget. After all, a soccer jersey reflects your personality; it unites you with your team and other fans and it’s your identity that can be spotted from a distance!
United we stand
Some fans collect retro soccer jerseys that are usually vintage designs worn by soccer greats like Pele or Maradona. Plus, they also have the added advantage of being a cut above the rest, making you standout in a swarm of fans. You can either wear a player or team jersey as a mark of loyalty. But original soccer jerseys are expensive. If you can’t afford $100, you can opt for replicas that’ are available at much lower prices. When it comes to players, Ronaldo, Beckham, Zidane and Ronaldinho are favorites. In terms of World Cup soccer jerseys, Brazil, Argentina, Italy, France, Germany and England rule. And let’s not forget local soccer club wear such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United, Arsenal, AC Milan, Liverpool, Real Madrid and Chelsea!
Custom fit
To please one and all, customization is the name of the game. Ask and you shall get. A name here, a logo there, a number elsewhere and a splash of color everywhere! Custom soccer jerseys as well as youth soccer jerseys are also gaining in popularity. But nothing sells or gets more attention than World Cup gear! After all, it’s a symbol of national pride and a team’s rich heritage made up of soccer greats and historic moments.
Optimal innovations
Well known brands like Adidas, Nike, Puma, Diadora and Lotto constantly manufacture and market new soccer apparel with special limited edition jerseys and moisture control innovations like Dri-Fit or Clima Cool. These days, genuine soccer uniforms are made of polyester. Cotton or nylon blends are not considered optimal for playing the game. With more and more pro’s specializing in soccer gear, the intention is to keep improving on design and technology so the players can achieve optimal performance. And you can pick up your favorite’s jersey to cheer them on in style!
