is it just me or are the teams with Puma jerseys looking like they take showers after 15minutes in the game.
Perhaps I haven't paid much attention to the other brands, but all the Puma
ones I've seen are just soaked after 15-20 minutes.
And don't say that they run more than the others :p

You are completely right. I was thinking the same thing, like "Holy CR@P look at the Puma kits baking those players!" Maybe they don't use the same type of material that Adidas and Nike use?

yeah, I noticed it during the Poland game I believe (or one of the other games where the team was wearing white) and didn't think much of it but now watching the Italy-Ghana game and both teams look that way. Very strange, I wonder what the material they used is....

Are the shirts wet or the players faces soaked?

The shirts, like they just got out of a pool wearing the shirt. Completely soaked.
It's weird that they don't have some sort of clima cool technology like Adidas,
cause they are with quite a few big teams. I was pretty surprised.

Well, all the Puma shirts are watermarked with some element of the country wearing them. For the Czechs, it's that large bird from within their crest.

yeah, i think that contributes to the shirts looking darker then they would normally.
and i guess the roof is closed on the stadium for the Togo v SK match, so it's hot as heck in there.

I have noticed that too but before that I noticed how cool the lettering is on the Puma shirts.

Yeah I can dig that :D
I just don't wanna see Drogba's man nipples ever again :p
And the watermarks, yeah, they look fancy, but they're still soaked as hell :o

Come to think of it, Brazil looked sweaty as hell yesterday.

The 1st match of the day has been pretty high concerning the temperature. For example, ESPANA vs. Ukraine it was 92F in Leipzeg!

Werd. And come to think of it, Germany did too. So it's probably hot as hell in those stadia right now, regardless of kit manufacturer.

I think it's just humid there or maybe the players are really working hard :rolleyes:

That explains it because the United States players weren't too particularly wet:(
