Anyone know where I can get Real Madrid replica kits in junior size that can be personalised with your own name and number. I've tried finding a site on line but i can't. If anyone knows please let me know cos its supposed to be a birthday present for my nephew.
haha cute. try ebay and search something like "beckham + real". Then filter through that and look for jr sizes. I've seen them around before, but most are of the fake variety. When I visited Madrid (not sure if you are from there), I bought a Zidane jersey from an adidas store there. They may have had kids sizes.
You can buy the official jersey with the offical numbers and letters, and with real Madrid players names (Ronaldo, Figo, Zidane, Beckham,Raul, Roberto Carlos). here: http://www.soccer-spain.com/ssshop/shopwindow.html Or you can buy the official jersey, without official numbers and letter, but with the possibilty of personalised the jersey with for example, your name.

Does the Real Madrid site have a store? I've looked and looked but I can't find a way to buy shirts/etc on the English version of the site.
Click on "tienda" (shop) on the vertical menu running down the left side of the screen. Marca.com also has some good RM stuff.
Is there a "best" place to buy jerseys? Here's why I ask: I am, first and foremost, a Manchester United fan. When buying Man Utd shirts, there are two ways you can buy them: (1) the "true" shirt with felt letters and numbers, or (2) the "replica" jerseys with vinyl lettering/numbers. I prefer the felt and made a mistake recently and ordered a jersey from Kitbag.com that came with vinyl lettering. Is there any difference with the Real Madrid jerseys? Last year, the "true" Centenary jerseys had felt lettering for the front but vinyl lettering on the back (from what I can tell).
I'm sorry, but i can't tell you the best site to buy jerseys because i buy all my jerseys in RM official stores in the Bernabeu. I only can tell you that http://www.soccer-spain.com seems a good site, they write all the caracteristic of the jerseys, speaking about the exactly size of the letters and numbers, etc. It seems to me that they are very serious in their job. The last year "true" centenary jersey hasn't letters in the front, the centenary jersey hasn't sponsor and it had the centenary logo in the left sleeve. Real Madrid played with that jersey since the day of the centenary to the end of the 2001/2002 season. In the season 2002/2003 they wear "Siemens" as sponsor. I have a classic white "real" centenary jersey of Raul and as you said the back is vinyl. I haven't bought a RM jersey this year - I want to by the dark blue of Zidane, and i can't help you about the material of the lettering/numbers but here you have a photo of the official letters and numbers and a link to the new company that make the letters and numbers for RM this year - Christ Kay. http://www1.realmadrid.com/web_realmadrid/mmedia/000/000/033/093.jpg http://www.Chriskay.com Chirst Kay says in its site that " ...
