So, why did Lyon lose their jersey sponsor?

Which😕
I mean, you can clearly see they have a sponsor right there🤷

What's the verdict on this? I sent them an email and the guy claims everything is legit—it’s just missing the Romario patches I was looking for. Everything else seems fine, though—material composition looks right and the flocking number is spot on.
Not sure what you guys think—every little bit helps when you're on a budget, and apparently some other guy has ordered from them before.

Nice. That yellow and blue combo looks pretty killer...

Why do American clubs change their jerseys every... I don't even know... five years?

Actually, most American clubs swap their kits every two seasons rather than every five, mostly because it just isn't worth the hassle to do it every single year. Why do the massive European giants change them every season? Profit, plain and simple. For those big teams, merch sales are a massive revenue stream. Here, though—meaning things like jerseys, scarves, and gear—it’s a tiny slice of the pie for a club like Real Madrid, which has the best setup. It's similar for FC Barcelona, and as for the rest... well, God help them. It really just comes down to the money. That said, it varies; some clubs switch annually, some every three years, but on average, it's about every two. I'm not sure if anyone actually waits five years, though. Aside from FC Barcelona and Chicago, I don't think any club is still rocking a kit they had two or three seasons ago.

Should anyone have an interest in acquiring football jerseys, please feel free to reach out via private message to discuss potential arrangements... thank you. 😁

I have this jersey available for sale if anyone happens to be interested.😁

Look, I've been reading through all these complaints about customs fees on jerseys and gear. Here’s my suggestion: when you're buying stuff, tell the seller to mark the package as a "gift." Actually, it might work even better if they write it in French—since that's the official language for many postal services—using the term "cadeau." Also, if you're ordering from different shops, ask them not to put the store's name as the sender. If they use a personal name and address instead, the whole thing looks more like a gift, which helps you dodge those extra customs charges. Hope this helps a bit—if you have questions, just hit me up...

In case anyone cares, they just marked down this season's jerseys at Dick's Sporting Goods by 50%. They've got stuff from the Yankees, Juve, Milan... even some of Inter's black and blue kits from last year, plus those beige ones. Prices are $83 right now. Oh, and they have the Italian national team gear too, though it's not the newest set—just the kit from the last qualifiers

Nice jersey, I guess. It has a decent retro vibe.👍

Do you happen to remember which other jerseys are on sale?

Joseph Davis98 It appears you have provided only the introductory phrase "says:" without any accompanying content to transform. Please provide the full text you wish for me to rewrite, and I will apply the requested persona, stylistic constraints, and entity substitutions immediately.
I have been observing the various grievances expressed here regarding customs duties and import fees on jerseys and other apparel, and I feel compelled to offer a measured suggestion to mitigate these frustrations. When you are placing an order, I would advise you to explicitly request that the vendor mark the package clearly as a "gift." In fact, if you are ordering from overseas, it might be even more effective to ask them to use the French term *cadeau*, given its standing in international postal protocols. Furthermore, should you find yourself purchasing from multiple different retailers, it is prudent to instruct them to list a personal name and residential address rather than a commercial storefront for the sender's information. By ensuring the entire shipment presents itself as a personal gift, you can effectively bypass those unnecessary additional costs. I trust this observation proves somewhat useful to you; should you require any further clarification, please feel free to reach out.

Honestly, you’re just talking nonsense. 😁
Even God won't be able to save you if you've already gone too far. $53 What exactly is the threshold for avoiding customs duties altogether, let alone when dealing with gifts and other various nonsense? I am trying to determine what the limit actually is. $167 If they find the situation too abrasive or simply lack the stomach for such an ordeal, the most prudent course of action is to ensure everything remains below the surface. $53 And that is precisely how it happens—they eventually find a way to trip you up on your own language. Believe me, I have plenty of connections over at Customs, so I am speaking from a position of absolute authority here.🙂

If anyone happens to know or has stumbled upon one, I’m looking to buy an official Mongolia national team jersey, but I just can't seem to find it anywhere online🙄 So if anyone knows where to look or has seen one, please drop a link here. Thanks...😉

I bet Nike is sponsoring Mongolia or something...😁 Yeah, right. You'd have better luck finding a jersey from the middle of nowhere😂 than actually finding one of those old ones left over from the storm...😁

That's pretty much it—just those three clubs and their national team. I doubt they'll pick up anything new since King of Western Avenue is closing in six months. I tried looking for that Inter jersey with the cross pattern, but no luck, I guess.

I guess you won't find any English jerseys at the Union Station shops... it's nothing but Italian brands there...

So, does anyone know if they had any Roma gear at that King Cross store last season...

nah, nothing else matters... just Inter, Juve, Milan, and Italy

Ha ha ha, you really cracked me up with that "firsthand experience!"
If you're stupid enough to let them play you with those "under or over $53" tricks, that's on you...
Take the gift strategy, for example—I've been doing this for years and have never had a single issue with US Customs. I don't have a single buddy working there, either. I'm just telling you that this works fine for a couple of jerseys, five or six scarves, three or four shirts, stuff like that...
Obviously, it's not going to work for twenty jerseys or fifty soccer balls, but for what you actually need, it works. Hit me up in the DMs and I'll map out the whole thing for you from A to Z...
