A?90 for the new England shirt

[pfcsteve72]

Nike's new England red shirt is a whopping 90 quid, if they'd done what Umbro did a few years back and made it reverseable with the home shirt on the other side I might have been tempted, but at 90 quid NO THANKYOU.

90 quid?

You could get 0.00003 of a new training ground for that !!!

I think what people need to remember on this is it is for the authentic shirt rather than the replic which we never used to be able to buy as it is a different quality.

Everyone used to buy replicas and they still can at a cheaper price, this is available at 60 quid rather than 90.

I do still think that 60 is too expensive but people jumping on the 90 quid tag and the press need to realise the difference.

Far too expensive, I'll save my 90 pounds towards my next ST

Changing shirts every year is a dreadful pee take IMHO

Apparently you need to be shaped like a pro footballer to look good in the ninety quid shirt.
The replica loose fitting shirt (i.e. to fit fatties) is the one for mere mortals at sixty quid.

No difference in my book.

Why on earth would anyone want to buy a replica?

Massive difference in quality of the two.

You would not want to wear a replica shirt playing football as would just sweat up where as the authenticate is completely different in lining, etc

If you have a pompey shirt for this season it will be a replica not authentic like most shirts that are sold. I remember a few years back in premiership years they sold authentic shirts as well but as far as I am aware they no longer do.

having different shirts for players and for fans has been happening for years/decades. The players ones are always better quality in some for or another.

Back in the Canterbury days you could buy an 'elite' shirt but it would set you back A£110 (may have been more but deffo over a ton) The elite shirts were more tight fitting, light weight, dispersed sweat quicker and supposedly were 'ironised' and that charge would help bloodflow/muscle repeat!? Sounds like nonsense, but players were banned from swapping shirts in a few games when they were testing it out.

The A£90 thing is a bit misleading. Front page news 2 days in a row now, neither mentioning the cheaper option til way into the piece. It's also never mentioned that the England rugby shirt is A£90 for the tech/player/test edition?

We should actually be moaning that they are A£60 for the replica, thats what people have been buying for years any way and usually at a much cheaper rate than that!

I guess Sports Direct will have it

Pathetic amount of money for a football shirt!
