Could also do the money in dollar as well as euro

I don’t think they are. It’s not like Nike or Adidas is slapping their label on regular, everyday items and charging astronomical prices like Supreme. The authentic shirt can be thought of as a tool for athletes if they’re meant to help with their performance. There’s a lot of work and technology going into these shirts which justify the price. Great breakdown of the football/soccer shirts business, I feel like that’s an industry in and of itself.

In Bangladesh we buy replica shirts for 4-5 euro

People making these shirts live rike rats

every 2 seconds bullshizz

ভাই আমারে ১টা কালেক্ট করে দেন। দাম বাড়ায় দিমু -_-

Wtf thats crazy...please send me some kits to Germany😂😂

Not surprised bro

Send your email or something I can contact I also want to buy

That definitely qualifies as a bargain! 🙌

This is why I don't buy them. If I support Chelsea, why should I wear a jersey with 3?sell them without the brand sponsors and I will be interested

In thr video they tell you exactly why they can't be cheap

@@saniakshay12 I Personally use 3 both for home internet and as phone carrier and I don't mind promoting a brand that I actually like but I'm gonna say it's absolutely HIDEOUS on the Chelsea kits! So much so that I actually did not buy any modern Chelsea kit. I prefer the Yokohama and Samsung ones. There is a good way of supporting your club by buying a jersey without the ads, here's how. 1. Some Clubs offer "Euro" Designs of their jerseys, where there are no sponsors. 2. Buy Training or prematch jerseys. Most of them are ad free and even cost less

I don't buy them because I don't like the concept of paying for the privilege to advertise a multi-billion dollar company. Thanks but no thanks.

Anyone see Idiocracy? Cristiano McDonaldo and Lionel Pepsi Messi.

Me neither, but I think they just wanted to show the effects of devaluation of money for people completely new to the concept of inflation. :)

He's also using Bank of England stats to calculate Euro inflation for some reason? Eurozone inflation has been 2% which makes 29 euros in 1992 around 54 euros today.

Yes but football shirts are not mostly about production costs, they are about recovering costs from the sponsorship to the club that gives them the right print those shirts in the first place. Those numbers are impacted by general inflation in addition to growth of demand. Remember most of the revenue of the sale of a shirt goes to the shirt company and not the club....that's cos the right to print those shirts have been paid for in advance. In essence you are paying the shirt company who already pre-paid your club (and not buying shirts will affect any future sponsorship value the club can get).

We dont need to think about the research that they do to improve it over time?

Facts. I bought the blue Ajax away shirt for 45, and I'd be a dummy if I had spent 90 at the start of the season.

The problem is that there is never my size at the end of the season, so I end up buying nothing.

@@colombiantom yeah you gotta stay alerted for those discounts, L, and XL are always the fastest one's out.

@@colombiantom it did happen to me this season tbh, little gutted, but kinda expected due to international supply chain issues. Just chalked it up to "not ment to be"

That's what I did, managed to get a home shirt in my size down from £70 to £40 because of it being an end of season sale, I don't mind paying that because that to me is what the shirt is actually worth and is usually the maximum I'm willing to pay.

Hope this answers those questions 🙂

@@AthleticInterest Ofcourse it does cause its done by the one of the best 🐐

because it was made by cheap labour who barely get paid for things that get sold for such great prices.

QUESTION: does anyone know if before every game players are given a new shirt before the start of the match? For ex. Real Madrid's is white, either they wash it really well prior to a game or they get a new shirt everytime

@@lemonking3644 Most of the times they are new kits each game. Especially for big clubs like Real Madrid. After matches players will give them to a fan or trade with another player so the the shirt they wore isn’t in their possession anymore.

Actually the shirts leave the country of origin empty, no branding or anything. I'm not sure if Athletic forgot or if they added them to the branding section (the one where they said that some money go to German federation), but there's some costs into adding the logos and numbers too.

Production cost in Portugal is cheaper than in a lot of parts of China already.

@@robertlee6338 idiotic statement? Just google it. I work in fashion and we've been looking into different production facilities. That's also why you see a lot of "conscious" brands saying they're producing in Portugal as if it was because they're so woke - no it's because it's the cheapest option.

im from portugal and we a "big" texteles industrie, i dont know the prices but i know lot internacional brands produce here like cos,hugo boss ect,our minimum salary right now 705 euros.

@@robertlee6338 the shipping cost is high and upon that China is pretty much constantly in lockdown, which makes other markets easy to work with. Also Portugal has one of the largest the title industry outside of Asia. A huge proportion of Inditex (Zara, Pull & Bear and so on) and several luxury brand clothing comes from Portugal

True it started at the beginning of the 00's. I believe until 04 Bayern Munich, for example, changed their home kit only every two years. The same goes for Dortmund. From 04 on, we had a new jersey every season. My favorite jerseys until today are the _"Total 90"_ ones by Nike. The national teams playing in theses kits had a circled in number on the front of the jersey, instead of the sponsor. They can be seen in the famous Nike ad, were Portugal played Brazil, with an endless number of top-stars: *kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fJihapphmJOtdps.html* I had a Tomáš Rosický one. But I'm sure it wasn't a replica. It had all the features of the original one the players wore on the pitch. I had _"Total 90"_ shoes and a yellow/purple ball too. The ball was indeed a replica! I just was in love with that style. Now I haven't bought a jersey for over ten years and I also don't play myself anymore.

@@yannick245 I remember the Total 90 kits well - they were used at Euro 2004 I believe.

@@BOABModels Exactly! At the EUROS 04, the 04/05 season and the Confederation Cup 05. And like I said, I loved the version for the national teams with the circled in number, on the front of the jersey.

@@yannick245 Kinda like Brentford nowadays then

For Arsenal, we repeated our 2012/13 home kit in the 2013/14 season. That was the last time. I'm sure it won't be changing anytime soon

If you played proper ball you would understand his foul.

To be fair, Suarez was starving for Chiiellini's shirt as well

Still better than what that snake, Suarez, did against ghana

Let it go. Snob

​@@aviatormv it was a joke....

you'd think there's be a sense of community to try and make something simple, local and affordable just so no one feels left out .. but apparently getting your kit made in the same megafactory i as everyone else half way around the world makes more sense? i really dont get it. its just clothes ffs.. trainers i understand might be too complex to skimp on but football shirts should be a labour of love .. especially national football shirts !

@@jantelopez5626 I’m all about loyalty I always buy my teams kit a year behind and I get some interesting kits of teams I somewhat like or think the shorts cool but always a year behind but they still rip people off something fierce

We feel the same way! 😉

Except Nike kits which all look the same with a different badge and colour

@@penguin350 yea but even if a kit is the same with different variations, that first original design idea has to be created by someone. Even if it’s just changing the colors and badges someone has to physically communicate and change that on they’re tech packs which still takes time. Time that someone gets paid for.

@@MendoCreative i dont think thats going to be a huge cost - there'll be a team of core staff (a fraction of the company's workforce and a coveted role ) who will scout and commission collabs .. and big brands often have designers over a barrel .. when designers have a big name for their portfolio, that pulls in more clients .. the exceptions might be some very famous designer who's name pulls in a new market.. like when stella mccartney did the GB olympic kit

@@jantelopez5626 yes of course it’s not a big cost just based off of the large volume of products being created ( I know because I used to be an a apparel designer). But it is an IMPORTANT cost none the less. My point is here is that there is more cost associated with creating these kits than people think, and even though economy of scale takes place, all those little costs add up. Which gets passed down to the consumer.

Theres no way the pricing in the video is real this is a bought video

We go very well with food! 😄

@@AthleticInterest waiting for a crossover between tifo and the athletic

Yes

Wrong , irritation could easily be a problem , also most jersey used by big clubs used a special material that could quickly evaporates sweat and keep body temperature stable

No

Where did you buy it from?

Pioneering!

Mike Ashley being used for good, One Sin less

That's smart thinking actually. You're buying the original version, helping the club in your own way and you're smart with your money. That's a WIN WIN WIN situation.

Good KZfaq channel but not the best

We like that review! 😄

@@aakashkedia22 how much will it become in Indian rupees?

@@tanishkumar2510 5k to 6k for replicas and 10k to 12k for authentic

Just get the duplica almost the same thing

What i usually do is find what the new kits will look like at the beginning of the season. If i'm interested in one i usually wait for the sales at the end of the season (i also have a discount as a member), but you have to be fast because the kit is often sold out in a couple of days or sometimes hours. And sometimes i'm not interested by the new kits at all. Which is even cheaper!

Hey, friend. Do u know why Napoli shirts are so tiny??? I really want one but it seems like i have to buy a 3XL to fit like a regular XL

That club is dirty anyway..

@@ziko646 true...but then are not all top Clubs. Man City, Chelsea, Liverpool. Man Utd, PSG, Juventus, Real Madrid, Barcelona and others, all have their underhanded dealings and way of doing things. It is what the top Clubs in the top Leagues do and it is usually the Fans that suffer the most, in one way, or the other.

@@neovarleydownes9109 You're absolutely right but tbh PSG has gone beyond the limits, it's just way too much.

@@ziko646 I cannot argue with that and you are spot on. Lets face it, what they have given Mbappe is absolutely mind boggling, not to mention ridiculous. I know it is all about the revenue he can bring into the Club, etc, but all that just for kicking a bag of air about a field. What Mbappe has been given, along with Messi, Neymar and a few others, is all that is wrong in the game today. It finished being a sport the day Football sold its soul to the Devil, also known as Sky and BT and is now just business and a Playground for the Mega Rich. Clubs get richer and the Fan gets poorer and it is the Fan that suffers. I treated my Grandson for his 16th Birthday and took him to the CL Final, as he is a Liverpool Fan, just a shame for him they lost, but not my fault lol.... O...M...G...I wished I had promised him a house! By the time it was all totted up, for the two of us, with fair, travel, hotel for the night, food, etc, etc, it came to nearly £3,000...for one day, to watch a bleedin football game. That is what it has come to. We were talking to others and they ended up paying even more. The way Football is going, the ordinary, hardworking terrace Fan is not going to be able to go and watch football games anymore, not in the top Leagues at least. Yes, PSG have gone beyond the limit and you are spot on, but the whole of top Football is also going beyond the limit.

It sounds German, I might be mistaken though!
