FAQs

Is this an original 1987 shirt?

No, this is an authentic replica designed to look and feel like the original shirt worn during the 1987 FA Cup Final.

Can I choose any name and number for personalization?

What material is the shirt made from?

The shirt is usually made from a durable polyester fabric, designed for comfort and longevity, mimicking the feel of classic football kits.

How do I ensure the personalization lasts?

Follow the care instructions carefully, particularly washing inside out on a cold, gentle cycle and air drying or tumble drying on low heat. Avoid ironing the printed areas.

Is this shirt suitable for playing football?

While the fabric is durable, this shirt is primarily a commemorative and casual wear item. It is not designed for the rigors of competitive football.

What is the fit like?

Retro shirts often have a slightly looser, more relaxed fit compared to modern performance jerseys. It's advisable to check the specific size guide provided by the manufacturer.

Troubleshooting

Print peeling or cracking

Ensure washing and drying instructions are followed. Avoid high heat and direct ironing on the print. If minor, a fabric glue might offer a temporary fix for small areas.

Sizing concerns

Refer to the brand's specific sizing chart before purchasing. Measure your chest and compare with the provided guide. If between sizes, consider sizing up for a looser fit.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Use a fabric softener on a gentle cycle during the next wash. Ensure the garment is fully dry before storing.
