Know the Types of Soccer Jersey in the World

As soccer fans, of course, each of us has a favorite team, both local and foreign. That love also encourages us to collect knick-knacks about idol clubs, from team costumes, scarves, hats, classic match DVDs, key chains to stickers.

However, compared to other attributes, the jersey is the product that most football fans are looking for to collect.

Especially in the modern era like now, the matter of getting a favorite soccer team uniform is an easy thing. There are lots of sports shops that sell soccer knick-knacks, especially team uniforms, both online and offline. The prices also vary, ranging from tens of thousands to millions of rupiah.

Don't be surprised to find out that there are soccer jerseys that are priced at high prices, because after all the soccer costumes have their respective specifications or levels.

Here are the types of soccer jersey on the market:

1. Imitation Jersey

This type of imitation jersey is usually priced cheaply and you can often find it on the market. Starting from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of rupiah. The quality of this jersey is of course very low. This can be seen from the type of material used and the shape of the stitches which are sometimes not neat.

2. Supporter Version

The Supporter Version product is an official product of apparel that sponsors a team and has obtained a license from the club concerned. However, this type of jersey is of standard quality, aka ordinary. Some apparel also distinguishes the shape or appearance of this costume from a higher version. When compared to the imitation or KW jersey, the price of this jersey is certainly more expensive but not as expensive as a product at the same level as above. For those of you with a limited budget, the SV jersey can be a great choice.

3. Replica

The word replica has the meaning of duplicate or imitation. But don't rush to call the replica jersey a knockoff or the same as KW. In the world of soccer jerseys, this type of product is one of the most authentic products, with a presentation that is 85% similar to the specifications of the costumes used by players on the field. The replica costume is the type of jersey that is most widely sold in official outlets. The price of a costume with replica specifications is generally slightly more expensive than the supporter version (SV).

4. Player Issue

The price of a product is often determined by the quality it has, so this player issue jersey has a higher price than the three types of costumes previously mentioned. The authenticity of this costume is even close to 100% the same as that worn by soccer players on the field, including the technology in it. For you soccer uniform collectors, this type of jersey can certainly be an option to collect. You also have to prepare more budget if you want to have a costume with player issue specifications.

5. Match Issue

The match issue type costume is the jersey of the highest quality. Usually, this uniform is an "armor" for footballers who are canceled even though they have been prepared for a certain match. So don't be surprised if this costume also has complete and perfect attributes because it already has the name and jersey number of a footballer along with the patches on the right and left of the arm. Price? Of course very expensive.

6. Match Worn

Match worn is the uniform that the players have worn while competing. So don't be stunned either if this type of costume is traded "as is". In that sense, if there are dirt or paint stains due to falling on the ground, certainly, it will not be cleaned because it is said that it will reduce the selling value of the costume. Regarding the price, like a match issue costume, this type can also be priced up to tens of millions.

7. Custom Jersey

A custom jersey is a type of jersey that is made according to the design of the customer. Usually has its team logo and a name that is tailored to the name of the customer. The price is relatively affordable with quite a variety of materials
