I have the option of #1 and #20. Ridiculous. Are there any custom jerseys around? For IU gear I buy from “Indiana University Surplus Store”. They have a Facebook page and post links to sales/auctions regularly. They sell literally anything of value from IU but in batches they have athletic gear. Helmets; Jerseys; Warm Ups. You name it. All authentic, most of it is game worn. I have two jerseys from them and one helmet. Hope that helps. Otherwise you gotta find one of those custom jersey makers in Asia and hope for the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted August 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) I bring this thread back up because of this This is how absolutely awful Adidas is. Are we all really going to have to email Dolson? Edited August 31, 2021 by btownqb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I promise IU adidas soccer jerseys would sell in volume. It doesn't make sense that a traditional soccer apparel company like adidas isn't selling jerseys for arguably the top soccer college soccer program in the country. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only watch our soccer team when they are in big games. Is it really that bad? I mean isn't Adidas suppose to be a "soccer thing" somewhat in general? Idk.. I'm over it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they produce their shoes here in the US? Don't think it will help the apparel crowd but at least it's made in the USA. I guess as a kid wearing a jersey was a big thing but I'm not sure I understand the fashion sense of wearing a jersey out in public. They look atrocious. But that's just me. I prefer a nice 1/4 zip pullover etc for more sporting attire. I'm not 18 anymore...I feel like I should dress like it lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adidas is making huge progress in shoe sells...in fact I haven't bought a pair of Nike's in at least a decade...I think Adidas makes better shoes....but their apparel is pretty far behind Nike FOR SURE.

They make wonderful breathable pullovers with the moisture wick technology...they are great. Anyways, maybe I'm finally getting used to the heat down here in Florida. I wear long sleeves almost all the time especially when I'm on the boat or in direct sunlight for long. Would like to avoid skin cancer if possible...heat/humidity was unbearable at first but I've noticed the type of material makes a huge difference on comfort.

Would like to avoid skin cancer if possible...heat/humidity was unbearable at first but I've noticed the type of material makes a huge difference on comfort. I wear them all the time. I wear comfy shorts and something comfortable to a game. If it's cold, I'm wearing a long sleeve under my jersey and my UA sweat pants. We aren't on different ends of the spectrum. I wear dress slack, dress shirt and tie, or polo every day to work. Cold weather a 1/4 zip is going on top of that. I'm never considering jerseys a young person thing to wear. If I'm going to do that, I'd just consider sports to be for young people too. lol If it's hot... comfy shorts and a tank top to the game/an IU basketball jersey. Probably be in that all day leading up to the Idaho KO. Then switch into something else. Do you guys cheer at the games? or you boring in that regard too?
