Vintage football shirts, polos and jumpers

What is Foot-Store's vintage selection?

The vintage selection includes clothing lifestyle inspired by football history, designed to be worn off the pitch. It comprises t-shirts, polos, and jumpers from Copa Football, featuring visuals related to World Cups, nations, and clubs that have made their mark on football. Unlike current match shirts, these pieces embrace a retro style in their cut, colours, and illustrations.

Retro t-shirts, polos, and jumpers: what can you find here?

This selection is made up of three categories of products. T-shirts take up the majority, with designs paying tribute to historic editions of the World Cup, such as Argentina 1978, Brazil 1950, or France 1998, some also available in mascot versions. Polos, like the one dedicated to Inter Milan, offer a smarter look for everyday wear. Jumpers, like the Dukla Prague model, complete the wardrobe for the cooler seasons. A few more occasional items, such as a windbreaker or sneakers, also enrich this selection over time.

Maradona, Legends, World Cups: how is the vintage selection organised?

The vintage selection is divided into several thematic pages to help you find the item you're looking for more quickly:

• The Diego Maradona page, dedicated to products inspired by the Argentine player.
• The Legends page, which gathers items related to notable players or clubs in football history.
• The Retro shirts page, for models that feature the colours and visuals of previous seasons.
• The Retro teamwear page, dedicated to team outfits in a vintage spirit.
• The World Cup page, focused on past editions of the World Cup.

If you're looking for other lifestyle items outside of vintage, you can also check out the men's, women's, and children's clothing, or take a look at the lifestyle accessories.

How to choose between a vintage t-shirt, polo, or jumper?

The choice mainly depends on how you plan to use it. A t-shirt featuring a past World Cup is suitable for casual wear off the pitch and works well as a collector's item or to show your attachment to a nation. A polo, like the one from Inter Milan, is easier to wear in situations where you want a slightly smarter look. A retro jumper, such as the Dukla Prague model, fits into a mid-season outfit and complements a wardrobe already made up of vintage t-shirts.

When to check for good deals on vintage items?

The site's promotional operations also apply to the lifestyle selection, including vintage. You can keep an eye on the Black Friday lifestyle page as this period approaches, then look out for the end of year holidays, before turning to the winter sales lifestyle and the French Days in spring. Outside of these peak times, check the clearance lifestyle and good deals lifestyle pages regularly, as well as the new arrivals lifestyle that follow the addition of new items to the catalogue.

How to care for a vintage cotton piece?

The t-shirts, polos, and jumpers in the vintage selection are designed for everyday use and can withstand regular machine washing. It is recommended to wash these items inside out to preserve the printed visuals and to avoid high-temperature tumble drying, which can weaken the prints over time.

Frequently asked questions

Can you wear a vintage World Cup t-shirt every day?

Yes, these t-shirts are designed as lifestyle pieces, not as match shirts. They can be worn daily, off the pitch, just like a regular cotton t-shirt.

What is the difference between a vintage shirt and a collector's shirt?

A vintage shirt features the colours and spirit of a past era or event, without being an exact reproduction of the original match shirt. A collector's shirt may refer to an older or rarer piece that was worn back in the day, which is not the case for the items offered here.

Are vintage pieces available in all sizes?

The availability of sizes depends on each item and changes with new arrivals. The product sheet for each piece indicates the sizes currently available.

Why do some visuals feature a World Cup mascot?

Some t-shirts feature the visual of the official mascot from a past World Cup edition, in addition to or instead of the nation's logo. It's a different way to pay tribute to the same event.

Can you gift a vintage piece without knowing the person's exact size?

The t-shirts, polos, and jumpers in this selection follow standard lifestyle clothing sizes, which are easier to estimate than a fitted match shirt. If in doubt, an oversized t-shirt or jumper is usually a safer choice than a fitted piece.
