As an avid collector of Authentic shirts, cost aside you've actually done a very decent review of the 3 main ones (not sure why Kappa wasn't involved, but it's your video). I find it very hard to believe more people don't go into this detail, but like me, you're very attuned to your subject matter and appreciate the detail you have gone to. One thing that is common on all 3 is that sublimated panels of fabric feel very different to block or pre-dyed (eg the psg one you have done, the front is a sublimated panel as it has more than the base and 1 alternate colour). This really does have a detrimental "breathability" effect on all the panels affected by this. The Adidas Heat.Rdy is well known to be more a relaxed fit to as it works with the airflow, with the double-woven process compared to the Aeroready top. It certainly looks like it could get away with being a fan version, but essentially once you're out and playing in it you will definitely feel the cool air coming through. The current Puma technology is probably the best they have had in the last 10 years, the ACTV was awful and Evoknit, whilst being an amazing feeling fabric, doesn't necessarily breathe that well under physical stress and would be better served in female high fashion. But again, thanks Josh that was a superbly done vid, and if you ever want to chat shirts don't hesitate to give us a shout.

Haven't tried the puma tech but between nike and adidas despite the Adidas premium tech( climachill and especially heat ready) feeling a bit plasticy it feels better in any sort of athletic activity. The ventilation and the flow of the material is better. P.s. not sure for nike but with adidas even with the same technology the fabric is quite different across different shirts. I play tennis and the tennis shirts from adi despite having the same technology have a different variation of the fabric. The tennis shirts feel less plasticy and are a bit heavier.

Back in May 2021, I found that authentic Juventus Home kit in a Marshall’s for $25. Keep in mind, it was May 2021 so it was still the current kit Juve was wearing that season. Obviously it didn’t have the name set on the back or the patch on the shoulder but $25 as opposed to $168 is a great deal. I’d recommend to anyone rather looking for shirts at stores like that rather than paying full price

Look at resellers on Ebay. They think someone is gonna pay hundreds or thousands for a jersey. But no, it's still on Ebay after many years.

[@jlee-li3dn]

I think the most important thing with any jersey, authentic or replica, is to flip it inside out and see how much stitching it took to put the jersey together. More stitching means more itching. The best looking jersey I own is a Newcastle United away jersey from 2007, but I hardly wear it because the amount of stitching it took to include all the mesh panels around the collar and armpits just makes me itch whenever I wear it. Notice how the all brands’ jerseys have fancy holes and ventilated panels, but how compression shirts from the same brands are mainly solid spandex/polyester with minimal stitching around the shoulders to connect the sleeves to the main/torso part. Less stitching means more comfort. That is why the most comfortable jerseys were the OG Kappa jerseys that were basically a compression shirt and jersey in one. The sleeves went almost to the elbow so they stayed in place even after raising your arms for a throw in and it was very obvious when someone tugged your jersey. Only downside is that you look terrible in the jersey if you had a gut. My dad bod would need a XXXXXL kappa jersey now.

[@allisontallantmcculley1047]

Sports admin major here who is interested in mainly the money. It’d be interesting to see what their profit margins are. I assume that the club gets a percent of the proceeds from merchandise sale so the brand itself doesn’t fully retain the revenue of these jerseys because of licensing agreements. It’d also be interesting to see the cost of production for these jerseys. I’m sure it’s very low in comparison to the price of the jerseys, thus high profit margins.

[@EarlSquirrelsonn]

My takes on this season’s authentic kits: Measurements: 190cm / 86kg. 6’3” / 190lb. Adidas: the material is pretty horrible and not soft at all. It’s like if you washed a cotton t shirt or jeans in hard water without fabric softener. The fit is loose for an authentic jersey. I have a Germany one in size S that fits larger than an M version from 2014. The tail at the back and the weird rounded bit at the front make the shirt really long for no reason. If it was cut straight at its shortest point, it would be much better. The sleeve cuffs on the replica version are actually much nicer than the bulky/squishy design on the authentic version. I think they should have swapped them around. Nike: they’ve done a great job and the jersey fits perfectly and feels great material-wise. The only thing they’ve gotten wrong is the collar on the Bale style jersey here. The shirt fits perfectly in the body in a size S for me, but the collar is very tight around my neck. If they made it lower at the front or just looser in general it would make the shirt much easier to wear. Puma: no comment. They don’t sell the authentic version of my only Puma club’s jersey. Borussia Mönchengladbach. The replica ones are very nice though. Again, with a size S the collar could be a bit looser. The body shape and size is fantastic and the material is also really nice.

[@Nikhil-Pandey]

I have a Nike Vaporknit football jersey (same tech, no club) and it's way more comfy than a regular one, does give this cooling sensation (you'll only notice if you're wearing). i got it on sale for like 45$ which is still expensive but it's literally the only jersey i wear now for gym, football everything in quarantine.

[@paulkim2944]

I've found that the Adidas authentic, you have to size down from what you wear in Nike. I wear a Medium in Nike and find the jerseys fit great. I wear a small in Adidas and get a perfect fit. I've actually found that while both are great for feeling light and helping stay cooler than regular dry fit shirts. My only issue with Adidas is that if I have a number printed on and I'm sweating, it sticks to my back/skin way more than Nike. Can you do a video on best training apparel for each brand?

They don't sell the authentic adidas jerseys for Celtic, so I couldn't tell you how they fit and feel but the Manchester United one looked a lot nicer when I seen it in the store. I think in order to get that Juve design they sacrificed quality. Adidas generally aren't very good with patterns, I manage an amateur team and Adidas just don't really sell striped or hooped shirts so we went with Puna for our team kits because our design is red and white stripes.

Key factor that was overlooked: newly released authentic jerseys will always be extremely expensive. Older kits will always be heavily discounted, so that steep pricetag is also linked to the hype of the “newest” product.
