No, powerweb is not "invisible", Adidas has simply given up this technology, as well as the techfit concept, to move to a more fitted formotion... to our great despair...
You beat me to this, I had literally been checking every day waiting for the Techfit to drop. I noticed the Power Web write up and a buddy asked if it's techfit or not because it says "Formotion" instead of Techfit. Additionally in the past the Techfit has always come in a bag or collector's case and their is a photo of it. None of that here. I'm going to wait and see if the photos are updated. $158 USD is Techfit pricing, but I'm not confident that it's Techfit and in fact a slim fit Formotion.
Thanks. Here it is as well: http://www.tifoshop.com/EN/pp/authe...e-shirt-home-milan-13-14.html?prd=20970&src=1 I think you are right, its probably just a Formotion shirt. Techfit is confirmed to be out then
You're right, the price doesn't correspond to a Formotion shirt. I hope Adidas won't try to steal us with "new Formotion technology"... I think Nike gonna be more rich this season.
so do i, really, if you take current France home and away Nike "player issue", no one can deny they're beautiful...and well well cut. size small is perfect! I'm guessing we'll soon have to change this topic name...
Where are AC Milans AWAY and 3RD jerseys techfit from the last 3 years? They have not been available anywhere! Did the players not were TECHFIT outside the home jersey?
I cannot recall seeing an AC Milan away/3rd techfit ever. The Home jersey for the past 2 years is still available online in some places, including a CL match issue long sleeve for both Seedorf and Thiago Silva. Very tempting, but the price is still extremely high for something that isn't game worn or autographed. Same website also has a Sissoko Panathaniakos (props to me if I spelled that right without googling) CL worn techfit, but it's far far cheaper. Anyone interested in these can PM me, I'm not blowing up this website as it is my go-to spot for older techfits.
I'm going to see if the pictures are updated, I'm not convinced that is the actual product yet. If they're trying to pull a slim fit Formotion as a Techfit, without case/bag and better pictures, then Adidas is in for a rude awakening, the people that buy Techfits have a pretty good idea of what they're about.
"100% ClimaCool® polyester, which allows heat and moisture control through transpiration. Bands of TPU elastic support for enhancing muscles in performance. PowerWEB TechFit for improving bearing during sport. Printed official sponsor, adidas logo applied and embroidered ACM logo" well that ac milan store says it has techfit features so i hope it does...anyways i ordered a L which is what i normally am in Techfit..i hope it isn't too big...I am M in formotion but someone earlier said this years Formotion is tighter than regular formotion and if that's true then M would be to small for me...hope it fits!
So can you only get techfit shirts online?? I wanted to try one on and see what size was best for me .. not sure to get medium or large.. and also most of them don't have the players names and numbers on them I called adidas uk and they said they only have the 'rights' to sell the ones on their website which is the climacool replicas.. i dont want those ones! Do they sell techfit shirts.. or new slim formotion ones for 13/14 season at the official adidas football stadium shops.. in bayern, milan etc ?? .. i bet they don't (also is medium in climacool replica = to large in techfit/formotion) ?? thanks
True. In USA Adidas sell some compression shirts labeling them Techfit, but they are tagged climacool on the hem, not acceptable behaviour.
I've seen at adidas.fr a techfit shirt (I think it was the milan 2011-2012) with the good description, the "good" price (150 euros) but the picture was a climacool...
guys, just found an auction on ebay for a Techfit Milan Jersey featuring powerweb and techfit tag, seller is asking for 150 euros, what do you thnik of it? Fake? not? Here's the link: http://www.ebay.de/itm/ADIDAS-AC-MI...t_Fußball_Fußball_Fanshop&hash=item4d1238abcb
No reason at all it should be fake, as far as I am concerned the 2011 Milan techfit was never available as a fake.
How is the Milan 2012-2013 techfit sized compared to 2011-1012 season? The 2011-2012 was extremely tight.
It's a little bit smaller....I have all the AC Milan Techfits and I can tell you that the 12/13 is tighter but it's very insignificant..the difference is not enough to make you change size, if the 11/12 is L and it fits you then get a 12/13 L, hope i helped.
Thanks for the advise Hmm. I am in between size Small and Medium as usual. Small is too tight and Medium too big. The 2010- 2011 size Small fit me perfectly. I end up getting both sizes as usual and dont know which jersey to wear
I just got the formotion and i'll be posting the pictures later today or tomorrow when i'm home. However here is a quick review, as an AC Milan, this is a beautiful jersey and excellent addition to my AC Milan jerseys, however the material is very different from a techfit and as a techfit fan i was disappointed. However the fit is different, it fits like last years techfit L and its formotion size L...except the bottom since the rubber band is gone...however the chest and arms fit like techfit...the material is not the same though and no powerweb as well. Great jersey and beautiful design but not techfit material. Pics will go up later, feel free to ask any questions.
Thanks for the report. So the sizing now is only 3 sizes? S, L and XXL? Have any other teams than Milan picked up on these slim fit Formotion shirts?
