In case this is of interest to anyone, in the process of making these I had to clean up the club badge that’s available as SVG on wikipedia, so if anybody wants a monochrome version for their own messing around just give me a shout.

With those folds/creases running from his armpits up to his neck, I'm not sure if the shirt is a a bad fit or whether he rushed and hasn't put it on properly.

Man Utd reckon they make something like £250million in replica kit sales per year, thats before training stuff, souvenirs & all that tat- the figures are ridiculous when you get near the upper echelons of the game. Juventus sold 520,000 "Ronaldo" shirts in 24 hours flat when he joined them, 25% of his transfer fee paid back in one day.

But none of those losers have Hummel shirts

Clubs make pretty much fuck ll from individual shirt sales. The manufacturer pays them to make the shirt and that's where they get the majority of the money from. Clubs will get 0% of sales under a certain figure then something like 2% over and 5% over a huge number. It's not big money apart from the contract. Adidas would have made a killing off the Juve Ronaldo shirts, not Juve.

Google it, they sold 3,250,000 shirts alone last season. Maybe they don't get all the money & have to give the manufacturer something, I dunno.

Man U club shop is something else, Literally had walls of printed shirts, ready to be sold, iirc the big stars like Pogba had their own walls, with hundreds of shirts all printed up in different sizes.

I was putting off getting a kit as I don’t really want to get one everyone season but it’s growing on me more and more. Also want to spend some money to help the club while we can’t go to games but maybe a kit isn’t the best way.

Transfer window: exposing the widely held myths about how clubs sign players

Shirt sales don’t pay off transfer fees, image rights are more important than ‘war chests’ and clubs are more likely to use an agent than a fax machine to seal a deal

I went in the club shop at the beginning of August, they had loads of training wear. I only bought a t shirt at the time and have been waiting ever since for the online store to have it more stuff available.

This is true for the mega clubs who get a massive signing on bonus for going with a given manufacturer, but it's not the case for basically anyone outside that top tier of Champions League-type clubs. Certainly for CCFC there will be revenue driven by the number of shirts sold, rather than them receiving an up-front payment from Hummel. That’s much safer for the manufacturers who have no guarantees that the club will be particularly prominent during the duration of the deal (think about how we dropped a division under Nike).

I went into the Toronto Blue Jays club shop in the Rogers Centre when I was in Toronto last summer and it was astonishing just how big scale sports merchandise is over there. It’s like you say, they have pre-printed named shirts for all their major stars, in all the variants, along with an entire wall of different New Era baseball caps.

Yeah I agree it works differently the lower down you go. It just weirdly boils my piss when someone says x player repaid their transfer fee in shirt sales when talking about mega clubs. It’s a rumour that was dispelled years ago.

This has been all over twitter but surely its a fake. Can't believe this could get to manufacture without someone objecting.

This is similar to dazzle camouflage on WW2 ships. It’s this an experiment to see if they get an advantage because it will take the opposition a fraction longer to work out the direction they are running in?

‘end of September’ and no update since. I imagine with the demand it will move to early/mid-October for most.
