Helly Hansen Long Sleeve Shirt

Advantages: Comfortable with superb wicking properties
Disadvantages: Creases a bit in the wash.

...I spent hours and hours researching which shirt would be the best for long distance running. Having come to the realisation that a cotton T shirt is vile to run in once you start sweating. The majority of comments I read or heard were full of praise for this shirt and rightly so. Its wicking properties are fantastic and although it is a base layer I wear it on its own and find it keeps me warm enough at the moment (and I feel the cold), but with the colder weather approaching an additional top will be required. It does say it is for cooler to cold weather wear though. It removes moisture from the body very efficiently and is very comfortable to wear. All the seams are flat and I haven\'t experienced any chaffing anywhere. It washes well but does come out a bit creased (and stays creased) if you spin dry it (maybe hand...

Review of Helly Hansen Lifa Long Sleeve Shirt

Ladies England Shirt 2006/06

Advantages: Looks Good, Shows your Support, Nice to wear
Disadvantages: Poor Quality Lettering, See Review

...I was bought from JJB, the Ladies England Home shirt for my birthday in October 05. My fiance had J Cole 11 printed on it by JJB. I was delighted with the present and loved the feel of it. The material is great, the cut is very flattering for ladies and I was proud of the shirt, especially with the name of my favourite international on the back. I washed the shirt by hand and I noticed little blue bits from the lettering had gone onto the white shirt. The problem wasn't that bad and I expected it to come out in the next wash so I didn't complain to JJB at the time. I hardly wore the shirt as I was saving it for the World Cup. In March 06 I noticed the blue bits on the white shirt were getting worse and in fact the colour from the lettering had run so much that even if I just wore the shirt the colour would run, therefore I...

Review of Umbro England Home Football Shirt

Glory Glory Tottenham Hotspur - Mansion shirt

Advantages: Ultra light - great for all occasions
Disadvantages: Spurs wording fades on the collar very quickly

...breast. Then comes what in my opinion is the best sponsorship logo we have had in years. The Mansion logo and wording is vivid and really complements the rest of the kit. The logo is actually a transfer so be careful when it comes to ironing (turn it inside out and do it that way) Although the image shows the long sleeved version I have gone for the short sleeves as I think you can be more flexible about wearing it whilst out socialising. As soon as you see this shirt you will realise it is of very high quality, my only concern would be that because it is so light, it may be more prone to ripping if you were to take it off in a hurry or if you were to catch it on a branch or something similar. Up to now, my shirt is in exactly the same condition as it was when I first took it out of the packaging. In summary, this shirt is great...

Review of Puma Tottenham Home Football Shirt

Good looking shirt!

Advantages: great price looks and comfort
Disadvantages: last seasons shirt (but little difference to the new one)

...a Portsmouth shirt as they are a good premiership team and have a nice looking shirt and one which I can easily wear around Portsmouth. Though it would not be a good idea to wear it in Southampton - as I was warned by my friend! The shirt is in the colour of plain blue with a small white stripe around the border of the shirt and down the shoulders. It looks really good being just blue as I like wearing blue and the fact that it is relatively plain means it can be worn with most things and will not look too out of place. On the left hand side on the chest (if you are wearing it) it has the Portsmouth football club badge with the blue background which is slightly darker than the shirt and the yellow star and crescent moon underneath. Ont the right hand side on the chest it has the badge of the sponsor and producer of the shirt - Canterbury. They...

Review of Portsmouth Home Football Shirt

With a new stadium, comes a new shirt!

Advantages: A nice looking, comfortable football shirt
Disadvantages: The 'Fly Emirates' lettering has started to peel off on my shirt!

...the shirt has not decreased in price in most big sports stores. There is also a long sleeved version of the shirt, and this costs a little bit more than the short sleeved version. Although both versions can be bought from websites such as EBay for a lot cheaper! BEST PART OF THE SHIRT I think that the best part of the shirt is the comfort from it. With the good technology and the comfortable material making the neckline, it is a very comfortable shirt to wear!! OVERALL Overall, this football shirt is a very good one. It combines great comfort with good looks. If the peeling Fly Emirates lettering is a problem that occurs on all shirts, then this is quite a big problem that needs to be sorted out by when the next shirt comes out. But apart from that, the shirt is of very good quality, and if you are an Arsenal fan, it is definitely...

Review of Nike Arsenal Home Football Shirt

The best in a long long time

Advantages: comfort, style, and it's a bargain!
Disadvantages: not many to speak of, it is easy to get stains on though

...*NOTE: THIS IS FOR ENGLAND HOME 2007/09 MENS TOP* I do not often buy England shirts. I was born in England, raised in England and never lived anywhere else. I've been raised as a football fan and I love the sport. However, there's something about having no choice about supporting a certain football team that really doesn't appeal to me. So what was it that made me buy this shirt? Well it was a mix of a few things. STYLE I like the design of this shirt. It's simple design really works and the red and blue trimming are a nice touch. It's a really nice shape as well, especially around the neck.There is also a lot of attention to detail - there is writing on the inside of the shirt around the neck area and there is a nice design underneath the arms. QUALITY This is a good quality top. The fabric is soft and comfortable as well as durable...

Review of Umbro England Home Shirt 2007/09

Celtic Nike home shirt 07/08

Advantages: Good material, available cheaper now.
Disadvantages: Out of date for 08/09 season.

...A tribute shirt to the European Cup winning Lisbon Lions of 1967, and a shirt that I love. Probably my favourite set of 'the hoops' I have owned. Made from a stronger, better quality material than Nike used for the previous home shirt. Better shade of green than the previous effort aswell. Bottom right of the shirt as in the picture is stitching which says "It's a grand old team to play for". A nice touch. The badge is encircled by embroidery which is in Portuguese about the Lisbon Lions 40 th anniversairy. It is important to bear in mind that since this shirt is to commemorate the 1966/67 season victory, it will only be in use by the Celtic first team for the 2007/08 season. However this has benefits as the shirt is now available for around £10 if you shop around. All in all a great effort from Nike....

Review of Nike Celtic Home Football Shirt

A poor quality footy shirt from a big club

Advantages: light material, a good colour scheme, neat design
Disadvantages: feels cheap, expensive, hard to wash

...I was bought the Barcalona football shirt as a present it is made by Nike and I would expect a good quality from this brand. Not so the shirt is feather light and is very hard to wash, on the tab in the shirt it says dont not lay ontiself after washing, wash with same colours and do not use softeners,probably because the colours may run into each other. Also you are not supposed to iron this shirt, for a couple of reasons one it may melt and two could stick to your iron, it has a very plasticy feel. I also read on the tab it says keep away from fire!, without doubt we do this with all our clothes, but I find myself thinking this shirt would melt very very easily. The material is more plasticy/nylon/polyester than anything probably to aid the lightness but it isnt very durable, it could rip easy as we see many times watching...

Review of Nike Barcelona Home Football Shirt

Football shirts in general!

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

...lightweight shirt becauseof the material. This means its good for hot weather ( non existant in England I know!). The home kit from this season is also very nice and similar to this kit. I much prefer this kit to the following two away kits. Last years was purple and white. This years is a marroon and black. Whilst older city fans may prefer the more traditional approach this season I still prefer this kit from two seasons ago for its more modern look. The price Well when this kit came out it would have cost you £35 at a minimum. The home kit still would have been £40. With football kits the best thing to do is find out your size then buy it off Ebay. There you may get it slightly cheapers. With last seasons kits however the prices plummet, much like last seasons fashion! I recently bought last seasons away kit (the purple one ) for £10...

Review of Reebok Manchester City Away Football Shirt

MANCHESTER CITY HOME SHIRT 2005/2006

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...
