Stripped it all back using the advice from We Fix Kits on YouTube (give him a follow).

My first attempt at restoring a shirt. The flock details on the 94 Brazil were looking a little tired.

I'm so made up that I managed to get hold of one of these. I know some say it doesn't hit the heights of previous AIK special editions, but I think it's blooming gorgeous. The box alone is a work of art.

Right so who wants the chance of owning the new Mexico Gold Cup shirt for only £3!!? Long sleeved, size medium. DM me or comment if it won't allow. 50 squares up for grabs, have as many as you like.

Reposts and share appreciated 👍🏻

RIP Eddie Jordan. When I first started following F1 it wasn't the big established teams I was drawn to, but the bright yellow cars run by this maverick. Cars as bright and loud as his personality. F1 was made all the more fun by people like him. 🍀🐝🏎️🏁

Which do I prefer? It's very hard. For me I'm leaning towards the Culture version. It's more "me" and is a solid effort from Puma, I just wish it had the Dortmund text on the back!
March 10, 2025 at 4:42 PM
The Culture version looks and feels like the classic Dramberg shirts of the 90s. It's thicker, heavier and has a more relaxed fit. The medium Culture is 22" pit to pit, the large Authentic is 20.5". It also features a rather simple jacquard pattern, which I feel Puma could have made more effort with
March 10, 2025 at 4:41 PM
The Authentic version is made from Puma's Ultraweave material which is so light you barely notice you are wearing it. You also get Puma logos on the shoulder and a more fitted feel, but I found no need to size up.

There is a huge difference on the rear of the shirt. The Culture version doesn't have the Dortmund text, which is a big disappointment for me. However, it does get a nice 90s style jock tag.
March 10, 2025 at 4:37 PM
Crest wise, the Culture version has thicker, more flock style crest and Puma logo. The Authentic version has a thinner, glossier heat pressed logos.

So the Culture version gets a chunkier box that pulls out. The Authentic version (and the fan version I believe) get a simpler box similar to the Bremen 125th shirt.

So here we go Sports fans, the new @bvbofficial.bsky.social shirt has arrived. Here is a thread comparing the Authentic Ultraweave shirt with the "Culture" version.

2 stunning deliveries this week. A beautiful Vaporknit Nigeria 20/21 BNWT and a kit room spec Barcelona 20/21 Away (such an under rated shirt!)
2 absolute beauties from Nike.

So after what seemed like forever trying to source a 3 star Brazil 94, like London buses 2 came along with my desired namesets at once. Anyone know what became of the rangy 17 year old who was an unused sub during the tournament?

Finally managed to finish printing up the MLS Archive Collection. Superb shirts, even better when all patched up. Just wish they had done more, Chicago Fire, DC United and Vancouver Whitecaps at the least!

Special addition to the collection. A boxed version of one of my favourites, the Japan 100th Anniversary Shirt. Lovely wooden box, a set of postcards and a leaflet detailing the history of the Japanese Football Association and their history with Adidas.

Thanks to @kitsare.bsky.social 👊🏻👏🏻

Not often can you complete a banging home and away set in 1 swoop, but thanks to @lcrxls.bsky.social I now have the glorious Marseilles 96/97 set. Love an inverted set, especially on an iconic 90s template most Toon fans will recognise!

So here it is, the first Diadora shirt in the collection 🥳🤯 94/95 FC Nantes home shirt. They won Ligue 1 after going on an unbeaten streak of 32 games before losing to Strasbourg. Absolute belter shirt.

Back in the day when Puma made shirts that didn't feel like they were going to fall apart after one wash. Lovely addition to the collection from @niclasico.bsky.social
