Manchester City Home Shirt 2008/09

Advantages: STYLISH YET SIMILAR COLOURS TO OLD SHIRTS - QUALITY PRODUCTION
Disadvantages: MAN CITY BADGE OF LEFT HAND SIDE CAN IRRITATE THE LEFT NIPPLE

...As an avid Manchester City supporter from as far as I can remember I have owned every seasons home shirt and even picked up a few away shirts en route. The only problem I could find with this shirt is on the inside left hand side of the shirt - the back of the badge which irritates the nipple when running or jogging or imitating your favourite City players. The shirt has a sleek round neck design with white and black bands around the shoulder area. The front and back of the shirt has a small detail to it which makes it stand out but I must admit it stands out more when your outside in the wet. It can also been seen up close when you get your shirt out of the washing machine as its machine washable also after that muddy days football! Another small problem I occured with the shirt although this is not the manufacturers fault as I... Read review

Advantages: comfort, style, smarter than other football shirts
Disadvantages: quite brightly coloured, could be a controversial choice if you aren't a Chelsea fan

...Right let's put this in context. I come from a family of Chelsea fans and my Dad has been pestering me to get a new Chelsea shirt for a while now (mainly because none of my other ones fit me). The past few seasons shirts haven't been too inspiring so I haven't bothered, but this one is different. I'll to to explain. Comfort I love the material it's made from, it's really soft and doesn't rub like some football shirts do. I play football in it a lot and it's a really good choice. Also, my girlfriend genuinely specifically asks to wear this shirt to sleep. You know it's comfy when your girlfriend (from Middlesbrough) wants to wear it. Style I think the style of the shirt is really cool. The Adidas logo is central which is cool, the traditional stripes are down the sleeves and I think the white collar is really cool. There's also a lot... Read review

Advantages: Last years kit but only £10!
Disadvantages: Not the newest kit!

...Football kits are something every fan wants but not all fans can afford. At the moment the new home and away kits for most premiership clubs are going to set you back near to £40! This is an insane amount as we all know. However year after year we continue to pay it! WHY Im not sure why we feel the need to have the "New" kit every season. Im not sure why clubs insist on updating their kits most season. The differences are often minimal! I guess its just a way of supporting your kit. Wearing a new kit says to others "Yeah! I love City!". I suppose this is a case of each to their own. I however never buy the new kit. At the start of each season I get myself on Ebay and buy the kit from last year. I have recently bought Manchester City's away kit. I did the same thing with the away kit from the season before which just happens... Read review
