Have you ever owned/worn another nation's football shirt (or similar)

[Bozza]

Watching the game last night reminded me of when my parents brought me a Brazil kit when I was a wee nipper, and how you often see other nations' shirts or t-shirts for sale - typically Brazil or Italy it seems.

I can't see me buying an England shirt in any kind of hurry, but I certainly would not buy the shirt of another country either for me or for my kids.

Have you, do you or would you? Why?

Yeah I've got a couple of Poland shirts, but then I'm half polish, so not sure if it counts as a different nation. Should state when they play each other there is only one team I'm supporting, which is England.

I don't have an England shirt, although I would, possibly, consider getting the Brazilian one if it was cheap, just because I quite like yellow. I don't think there'd be any other, unless it was for a bet, good cause, etc...

One of my pet hates is people wearing Brazil or Barca shirts. Glory hunting.

I have Cyprus and Malta shirts as I've bought them whilst on holiday and wear them when I'm going to the gym.

One of my pet hates is people wearing Palace shirts. Wankers.

I've got a Brazil '70 Shirt, 'cos that was the best football team ever!

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Yup. I have owned a German shirt and an Azerbaijan shirt. The first one I bought to join in with the Germans at the Euros 6 years ago. It had Podolski on the back. And I bought the Azerbaijan shirt when I went to see England play there some years ago; bought as a souvenir.

I used to have a 70's Brazil track top, but it got relegated to gardening and stuff, and is now long gone.

Still have an Adidas 70's NIPPON top.

When I was about 6 I inherited a FRANCE shirt from one of my brothers, no idea why they had it in the first place and I'm certainly not proud of it

I had a 1970's vintage Argentina tracksuit top. Gorgeous it was.

 

[jackcgull]

i've been to Honduras a couple of times and bought their blue and white striped shirt. have even worn it to the amex. shame they don't still have it.

Used to have a vintage Portugal shirt worn at Euro 96 and Euro 2000 I loved their football. Don't see anything wrong picking up another shirt, there are some good ones out there.

 

[chesneyhawkes]

When England didnt qualify for the Euro's we did a sweep stake and i vowed to put my full support behind whoever i got. I picked Switzerland and bought their shirt, it arrived the day they got knocked out. I also own a south korea shirt.

I've got a fair few moody national football tops from my hols. I've got Malaysia, India (Adidas and Nike - no idea which is supposed to be the real one), Goa, Malta, Gozo (the little island next to Malta), Lithuania, Egypt. They're all sitting in a drawer, never worn them and doubt I ever will.

 

[MattBackHome]

I've got a really good SAMARAS 27 Blue Greece Shirt from about 7/8 years ago or so. I have zero connection with Greece.

 

[JJ McClure]

I have a few random African ones. Tunisa, Kenya and Zanzibar. The latter is the only one that I ever actually wear.
