I had the Scotland home with diamonds down the sleeves as a nipper (no idea what year it was, possibly '78?). I also had a polyester Arsenal top with huge collars that were great fun to chew on, though it didn't have a badge or anything and I suppose may not have been a footy shirt at all.

This is my Boca shirt, from '97. I didn't know until I looked it up that Maradona had returned for that period, so the no.10 on the back actually does refer to him. Quite chuffed about that.

xp I was going to tell my story about having bought mine at La Bombonera and then getting home and wearing it out to the shops on my first day back, and literally the first guy I bumped into was wearing a River shirt. But I checked incase I'd told it before and it turned out I had - um, to you last close season.

The two proper-proper (i.e. not TOFFS) shirts I have are both Saints ones - one from the most recent relegation season (i.e. the one that might as well be an Exeter shirt) and our current one (i.e. the loveliest thing in English football right now), as modelled by Jose Fuckin' Fonte:

Only really got one in the want column - Angola's from the last African Cup of Nations.

What I'd really like is the body to carry off wearing that shirt, though. But apparently that doesn't happen by itself, so.

Ismael xpost - my favourite Inter away with the massive St George's cross on it.
I used to have one of these! It was my FAVOURITE KIT. And then I stopped being able to wear clothes I owned when I was 10. ;_;
I currently only have this season's Arsenal away kit. No name on the back. When I was younger I had- Arsenal gk kit with the stars on it with Seaman 1 on the back, Arsenal away from the same year 94/95 w/ Wright 8, that Inter kit, a PSG home shirt with that cool Opel sponser w/ the lightning strike, a p sweet Italian away kit when it was all white...
Currently want- an Ajax one, from any time really; a Fiorentina Batitstuta or Baggio one; will get Fabregas 4 next season for his last at Arsenal; a Baresi 6 Milan shirt; I like the Udinese one with the lines all pushed in together; an Argentina away with Messi 10 etc. etc.

I had the same Arsenal GK kit, Sam. Currently have old shirts for Flamengo, Columbia and a LS Arsenal home kit from the 94/95 season - first year I went to a game - that a friend found for me in a charity shop in Brighton.
This is the first, and still my favourite, that I ever owned: http://www.arsenal-il.com/pic/shorts/away94-95.gif

I liked the '94-'95 home kit, it's got a bad rep. Though how they messed up "red shirt, white sleeves" I dunno. The sleeves are meant to be entirely white, not just the front/top ffs.

Many soccer clubs began thinking of themselves as quasi-lifestyle brands some time ago. Paris Saint-Germain aspires to becoming a purveyor of fashion. So does Juventus. But a slew of American teams playing in the minor leagues or even in amateur circuits, like Providence City, Forward Madison and the Kingston Stockade, have hurried past building a global soccer juggernaut and skipped ahead to the fashion part.Whereas PSG and its fellow powerhouses see streetwear as an avenue to tap into new markets—namely the non-fans—and eke out a little more revenue, some savvy American clubs have made the merchandising business central to their model. It’s the jerseys that makes the soccer possible, rather than the other way around.
