Brunei

Brunei – Away – 2017

A fantastic away shirt to go with a decent home shirt. This design was worn by the U23s during the AFC Championships, the U18s during the ASEAN Youth Championships as well as the senior team during the Aceh World Solidarity Cup. It was also nominated for National Team Shirt of the Year 2017.

This shirt is also available in limited numbers from the Football Shirt World online shop.

Brunei

Brunei – Home – 2017

Brunei national shirts have always been difficult to obtain. First of all it’s a tiny country on the island of Borneo, and secondly their club side plays in Singapore’s S-League (and the Malaysian Super League before that). Meaning that most national pride is channeled through Duli Pengiran Muda Mahkota Football Club.

Nepal

Nepal – Home – ?

Another match worn Nepal shirt to add to my ever expanding collection, this one was sourced by my contact who plays for the Bhutan national team, and will be no surprise to anyone who follows Nepalese football (that’s all of us right?) that this is fake Addias, although at least they are copying a genuine design unlike in 2007. this design has been used by Nepal for a few years, but I am yet to find match pictures without numbering on the front, and with ‘Nepal’ on the reverse instead of player names.
Well this is amusing. When did you last find shirt printing with the name of the place it was printed on it?

The Gambia

The Gambia – Home – 2015


Another matchworn Gambian shirt thanks to the Latic Dagger whose impressive collection you can see here. Jakob has had a recent habit of being able to source rare african national shirts. This one I received in a trade for one of my many Bhutan shirts.

Slovakia

Slovakia – Away – 1994

A beautiful Slovakia shirt here, match worn from the 1996 European championships Qualifier away to Israel. This came from the same source as my matchworn Lithuania shirt, although this one appears to have been sent to me in error. I actually purchased a Luxembourg shirt, and having paid more than £80 in customs fees I’m reluctant to return it.
