New England Shirt

[kopend]

the new england shirt is £90.00 (for the one with all the technical stuff in it )
how much does it cost to make - and who makes what

i,e what do nike get . what do the FA get and what does the shop make ?

[BlueToffee]

Probably costs less than £2 to make in some far eastern sweat shop, the rest is all profit.

I won't be buying one though, my expanding waist line would look rather stupid in a figure hugging shirt!

£90 ?
Well that ends any interest in buying a new England shirt.

I wouldn't buy one for myself, but thinking of folk that have three children for eg... unbelievable price.

If it is called The New England Shirt why does it not feature The Stars & Stripes ?

[Arksided]

Because they're not American.

who cares?

Would it be an unforgivable solecism to go to an England game wearing an older version?

[Arksided]

Totally forgiveable Sandy... the older ones look much smarter.

i'd look like a very old rooney if i bought one so i'm saving my money

Very good whiskeryron

[anaxcrosswords]

£90 is outrageous. Works out at £30 a game.

i like the £16.00 option - but the only thing missing is the star or shall i order two just in case (we win it !)
