Just released. Techfit is still ALIVE - in handball - Team France. I just bought one It even has POWERWEB still http://www.madeinsport.com/fr/handball/h-france-maillot-ffhb-domicile-techfit-2014-2015-450070.html
Yeah man, sadly. They've completed switched to formotion this season and apart from the home Chelsea jersey, it's almost impossible to find a player issue jersey for sale nowadays. The only ones that I have found are match worn jerseys and they cost at least 500+ euros (there are match unworn jerseys but there are very few of them and they're not cheap either). One more thing is I noticed the Chelsea formotion jersey cost the same as techfit ones, which is really unfair to us considering that techfits have so much more attention to detail and fit. Regarding @Greggy's question about adizero jerseys (sorry man, I haven't logged in for quite a while), I wouldn't say they're too bad but I think the price could have been a bit lower. I bought the Spain adizero jersey from one of the new stores that opened up in my neighborhood for around 120 usd. That's just for the shirt, the full set with shorts and socks are a bit too expensive for me. Anyway, the shirt is reaaalllyy light! You can't barely feel any weight from it. The attention to detail is similar to formotion though, the badge and adidas logo and printed on but the stripes are sewn on. One thing I really liked about the adizero jersey was the fit, it was form fitting but it doesn't feel tight at all because of the thin smooth material, and the sleeves are just the right length. I think the adizero jersey is still a downgrade from techfit but definitely a major upgrade from formotion. The new formotion jersey is heavy, uncomfortable and waaayy too expensive. One good news is that the guy whom I bought the jersey from told me adidas will be commercially releasing all of next season's player issue jerseys and they will be in adizero technology. I can only hope it's true because I can't stand another season with formotion and the price and material for adizero jerseys are actually pretty reasonable for me. It's really sad to see techfit jerseys go but hey, for us old boys at least we'll always be apart of the techfit era Let's make sure we'll always wear them techfits to games to relive the old times
i still have my france away techfit. I never wore it because I didn't have the body to wear that lol. I'm getting there though
Hi guys, I've just registered here because I have a doubt with techfit/adizero jerseys. I've been reading the Techfit thread and it provided me with a lot of info regarding techfit jerseys so I thank you for that!! =) My problem is I only have Climacool jerseys and I want to start buying adizero/techfit jerseys but I dont know what is the size I shoud buy. I can only buy throught the internet because I live in a small city in Spain and the stores here (even the big ones or the official adidas store) dont have techfit jerseys so I could not try them before ordering them. I like slim fit, I wear S size in climacool, I'm 1.89 cm tall and I weight 85 kg and have a body complexion similar to Cristiano Ronaldo so size S fits me exactly like this: http://www.ronaldo7.net/news/2013/0...ring-the-new-real-madrid-2013-2014-jersey.jpg That's how I like to wear my climacool shirts BUT here comes the problem. I know techfit shirts run smaller than climacool and I own a couple of basic techfit shirts that I usually wear while I'm training (like this ones: http://ak.buy.com/PI/0/500/204532374.jpg The ones I have are size M but they fit as they're my second skin (similar to this pic) http://www.eventostoppanama.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/nani-manchester-united.jpg I DO NOT want my techfit soccer jerseys to look like that, I want slim fit but not "second skin-like fit" lol. Should I buy a L size then? Thank you very much and excuse my poor english!
Man, I don't know how can you wear a M size with 189 cm and 85kg... I'm 180cm and 78kg, I cannot anymore wear a M size. Only L if no I destroy them. So don't worry you should be able to wear size L. Does anyone have good advice to make difference between authentic and fake Adizero shirt? What is the material composition of an authentic one?
Lol, well maybe it's because I wear the techfit M extraslim fit under my climacool shirts like the Nani pic I posted or maybe it's because in Europe the sizes are bigger (I mean if you really are from japan or live there). I always heard that in europe sizes are bigger, an asian M is an european S so my size M techfit should be your size L. Anyways, thank you very much for the info, I'll buy my techfit soccer jerseys in european size L then!!
Powerweb are the best techfits. Both my jersey and my 3/4 shorts have powerweb. Without powerweb it is just a compression shirt...might as well buy Nike or Puma.
