So The Obsession With Chivas Football Shirts Grows

I wrote before on here about my love for the candy-striped shirt of the Chivas team. Now I found this Facebook page, owned by Mr Soy Chiva who owns what must be arguably the best Chivas collection in the world. Look, Sunderland; take note Sheffield United. This is barbershop stripe done ‘all proper.’







New York Cosmos Glorious Shirt

Earlier this week, 44-year-old kung-foo master Eric Cantona was confirmed as director of soccer at the New York Cosmos, who are attempting to recreate the magic at the club that was once home to Pele and Franz Beckenbauer, during the now-defunct North American Soccer League.

So with that in mind, I thought you’d enjoy looking at a quite majestic Beckenbauer Cosmos shirt from the 1980s. It’s from the quite brilliant ‘Weedo’s England Gear’ website, a chap that owns an eclectic, yet impressive haul of kits.

Enjoy.

You can pop a bid on here. And here’s a video of an ‘alright goal’
