It is frustrating for football fans like me to see the sponsor's name or other heat transfers peeling off an expensive football jersey after just a few washes. This is a real problem affecting overpriced jerseys from so-called reputable brands like Adidas, Nike, Puma, Umbro etc. To maximise profits, these manufacturers opt for cheaper production locations in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia etc. where lower quality heat transfer materials are probably used. I have stopped buying these overpriced jerseys for this reason. What do buyers of genuine football jerseys think?

You can always buy the online one for $19.90

unless you feel that it let down yr team, then go for the $90.90 "original" replica in most retailers.

Frankly, I think yr team doesn't give a damm!

I agree with you that the counterfeit football jerseys sold at sites such as Lazada and Shopee are of pretty acceptable quality. I actually stopped buying all football kits for at least the past 2 years after the disappointment of seeing several of my older shirts with sponsor's name peeling off or disintegrating. Genuine jerseys costing $99 - $115 should not have such low grade decals ironed onto them. Even though I have a favourite football club, I am not emotionally attached to them. That would be simply immature.

The manufacture of these jerseys are outsourced to Chinese textile companies which in turn further subcontract or offshore to factories located in places like Bangladesh, Vietnam or South America. I doubt there's much QC beyond simply having no visible defects at the store front.

These days, people aren't purchasing the Japan national team jersey to show their support. ....Instead, opting for a jersey of the famous Yomiuri Giants baseball club will definitely get you recognized by their natives!

The counterfeit versions of the new Adidas Japan national team jersey are priced between S$10 - S$26 from Shopee.

The downside of wearing my Japan football jerseys during my trips there is that tourists keep asking me for directions.

Buy only if logo are sewn on not ironed or pasted kind sure drop off. Lesson I learnt as I have both kind. But besides logo the sponsor name is ironed or pasted to keep cost down so those cannot help lor.

The quality of the decals on genuine football jerseys costing over $100 is of substandard quality most of the time. I have too many of them with iron on badges, brand logos and sponsor's names which are peeling off, cracked or simply disintegrating after 3-4 years even though they are worn and hand washed sparingly.

Oh, yes, I get the frustration with expensive jerseys falling apart after just a few washes. I used to buy them all the time, thinking I was paying for something that would last. My Villarreal CF jersey from last season, though, has held up way better than expected. After multiple washes, everything is still intact, no peeling sponsor or faded colors. I think the key was just getting one from a decent source. It's annoying because for the money we pay, you'd expect better quality across the board, especially from the big brands.

I only purchase genuine football jerseys from so-called reputable brands like Adidas, Nike, Puma, Kappa, Umbro etc. After paying over $100 for each jersey, I am often left frustrated by the sub-standard quality of the vinyl or plastic used for the sponsor's logo. I recall that most of the jerseys I bought more than 10 years ago are still intact after careful hand washing and air drying. The shirts that were purchased over the past 5 yeas have not fared as well. Cheaper materials are probably used which results in fading, peeling or cracking. Manufacturers in Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia etc. probably prioritise cost-cutting over long-term durability, leading to the use of lower-quality materials or application methods. Authentic football jerseys from over 10 years ago were mostly manufactured in China, and the quality was far superior.

This Brazilian football club, Operario has the most sponsor logos of any jersey that I have ever seen. Imagine when all these ironed on logos start peeling or disintegrating. The jersey will be such an eyesore.

I doubt that most of the sports memorabilia offered online such as genuine football jerseys worn and/or autographed by the likes of Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, Beckham etc. are genuine. My son managed to get the training jersey from Phil Jagielka when Everton were in S'pore for the Barclay's Asia Trophy. We had to wash it eventually as it stank.
