Holland Soccer Jerseys

I won two auctions for Holland soccer replica jerseys on eBay today--both are home (orange) jerseys. Here's the kicker: one of the jerseys is authentic, while the other is (most likely) not.

The authentic jersey sounds like it's an irregular. The seller (located here in the states) noted that the jersey does have a small flaw. The knockoff jersey (from Asia, of course) was a bargain, however ... I won that auction for just one cent. Yep, one cent ... just like the Liverpool Jersey I wrote about a while back.

The Liverpool jersey arrived here last week. It doesn't look half bad, but then again, I don't have an authentic jersey to compare it against. But that's where I'm heading ... I'm hoping to provide jersey-to-jersey comparisons between the authentic jerseys and the (purported) knockoffs. The Holland jerseys are the first two I will get to post (once they arrive in the post, that is).

Just as importantly, I want to see how these (purported) knockoffs hold up after a few washings ...
