Everything you might want to know about buying a vintage shirt from us. If your question is not here, just send us a message.
Every shirt is checked by hand before it is listed. We compare the manufacturer tags, stitching, badge application, sponsor print and wash label against the year and edition the shirt claims to be. Details like the tag style and the way a crest is attached changed almost every season, which makes them reliable markers.
We only sell originals. If a piece is a later reissue rather than an original of its era, that is stated clearly in the description.
A match worn shirt was actually worn by the player during the game. A match issued shirt was prepared for that specific player for a particular match, but was not worn on the pitch.
Keep in mind that a match worn shirt may have been washed after the game, so it does not always carry visible traces of play. Whenever a shirt is worn or issued, we state which one it is in the listing.
Each listing states the condition, and any flaw, repair, fading or loose stitching is photographed and mentioned in the description. These shirts are decades old, so small imperfections are normal and part of their character.
If something is not visible in the photos, it is not there. When in doubt, message us and we will take extra pictures.
Yes. Almost every piece in the collection is one of one. Once a shirt is sold, that exact shirt is gone. This is why pieces disappear quickly after a drop, and why we recommend saving the ones you like.
