Men's Soccer Jerseys

Soccer jerseys are worn by professional footballers and fans of the sport around the world. This guide will help you choose an appropriate soccer jersey.

How do you differentiate authentic and replica jerseys?

There are marks that set apart an officially licensed jersey from the replicas. For example:

  • General- The imitations are similar to the authentic ones in almost every way, except for the material used to make them. Authentic football jerseys are made of strong and light materials, and the club badges are heat-pressed to keep their weight to a minimum.
  • Nike jerseys- The Nike authentic football jerseys are made with the Aero-swift technology which enhances breathability and texture. This technology is only used to make Nike jerseys that are of solid colors. The Nike replica jerseys are built with the Dri-Fit technology. Nike football jerseys are 100% polyester.
  • Puma jerseys- The most noticeable difference in Puma shirts is the shirts' tight fit. The authentic Puma soccer jerseys are tight. The unofficial shirts tend to fit more loosely.
  • Adidas jerseys- The authentic football jersey is designed to have an athletic fit and is lightweight. An imitation Adidas shirt will fit more loosely.
  • New Balance jerseys- The authentic jersey has an athletic fit that hugs the player's body and the imitations have relaxed designs.
What factors should you consider when selecting soccer jerseys?

There are a few factors that are helpful to keep in mind when choosing a football jersey. These include:

  • Size- You have to consider the size of the person that is going to wear the football jersey. You can buy a big jersey for children to grow into. For soccer teams, you should take the measurements of your team members.
  • Quality- You need to check the brand and the construction quality of the jersey. Higher quality brands tend to last long.
  • Breathability- If the material is breathable, it can enhance the performance of the players.
  • Material- When purchasing a jersey, ensure that the material you choose is appropriate for the weather conditions in your area. If you intend to wear the shirt in summer, get a breathable material. If it is meant to be used in cold seasons, you can get a jersey that retains heat.
  • Color- If youre choosing shirts for a team, keep in mind that you should get a different color jersey for the goalkeepers.
How do you determine fit when looking for soccer jerseys?

You have to consider the measurement of both the jersey and the shorts. To get a good fit, measure your chest at the armpits and over the fullest part of your chest and shoulders. For the shorts and pants, make sure you measure around your waistline and the fullest part of your thighs.
