World Cup Shirts!
Whether it is from the bleachers in South Africa or from the comfort of your own sofa, a true FIFA fan would never go without his favorite world cup apparel! Getting these soccer jerseys, however, is another thing altogether. Not everyone is content with football clothing or merchandise that simply bears the logo of their favorite football players. Hardcore fans need apparel that will bring them as close as possible to their favored teams or players.
This is especially true for the upcoming 2010 FIFA world cup in South Africa. Every team will then have the chance to bring their country one step closer to glory, from the USA to Germany to Italy to the crowd favorite that is Brazil. And of course, you need to find the right apparel to satisfy your American, Italian, German or Brazilian football cravings.
Counterfeit V.S. Authentic
The first thing you have to do is to differentiate counterfeit from authentic merchandise.
Counterfeits are cheap and plentiful anywhere you look, whether it be online or offline, but authentic rugby merchandise much more expensive. The difference in price, however, is not the only thing you need to worry about.
Frauds will often pass off replica products as genuine apparel, banking on the deadly combination of enthusiasm and ignorance to get their unwitting victims to fork out their hard-earned cash.
Here are a couple of tips to differentiate between replica and authentic merchandise:
- Authentic merchandise range anywhere around $200 to $300 apiece, while counterfeits undercut these prices. ‘Authentic’ merchandise under $100 might seem like a good buy, but you run a very high risk of obtaining counterfeit merchandise. Do not limit yourself to price, however, as many frauds sell their fake, wholesale counterfeits as authentic FIFA world cup merchandise.
- Authentic jerseys and other merchandise usually have reinforced materials, making them thicker and more substantial than their fake counterparts. This is something that you will only notice only when you actually touch the item you are looking at, since photographs make it very difficult to differentiate between flimsy and substantial clothing.
- Patches from sponsors like Nike or Puma are usually stitched on with authentic gear, while counterfeits have ironed down plastic patches unto T shirts, tees or jerseys.
- The size of the sponsor logo is another strong indicator of a product’s authenticity. Fans of a particular team can scrutinize pictures of authentic T shirts or jerseys on the Internet to see how big a sponsor’s logo is.
- Fans will also have the edge when it comes to font and font size. Visiting the official FIFA website and comparing the font of apparel with the one you are looking at will reveal subtle differences.
- A game worn jersey is always authentic, but authentic jerseys are not always game worn. If you will buy such game worn jerseys, insist on identifying the source of the seller – especially since these types of jerseys range anywhere around $500 to $2,000 a piece.
- Authentic men’s apparel and those for women are most commonly sold, although there is authentic merchandise for kids as well. These are just harder to come by, but they do exist in the market. Just don’t expect to find any game worn apparel in children’s sizes.
One last thing
Let’s face it – shopping online is a convenient but very tricky place to get your authentic FIFA World Cup apparel.
You can find vendors that sell merchandise for cheap World Cup jerseys since they obtain their stock in bulk from wholesale sources. Just make sure to check the backgrounds and histories of your trading partners, especially if you are browsing around on sellers' sites.
