    This was extremely helpful. Thank you! I just purchased a Dortmund 1995 jersey from eBay and it kind of smelled a bit so was curious the best way to wash. Love your channel!

      @@thesunstate5803 I am going to ignore that "I love Inter more" thing. 😜🤣 As for the EPL, I truly do not have one team that I support. In the 90s I really liked Chelsea, but then Abramovich had to step in (still beating Bayern in their home stadium was a bit of redemption). At times I got sucked into Liverpool (early 00s and lately under Klopp), but then Istanbul happened. I enjoyed Arsenal in their glorious pomp and currently really want them to win. I should like Newcastle as they share colors with my hometown team, but Saudi Arabia ... 🙄 And then of course, I do want storied teams to do well (but isn't every team in England storied?). I guess the only constant is that I never liked United and currently City are boring me to tears. 😫

      @@MySoccerUniverse Ha ha thank you for ignoring that, I loved Inter as a child but I'm crazy about the red and black of Milan and owned their top when Kaka was at the height of his powers. I can't believe the way Chelsea treated Abramovich - how they just turfed him out for being the wrong nationality. Now with their flavour of the week manager Potter they will probably have some karma coming their way. Anyone that dislikes Man Utd will always get my thumbs up and Man City is also Saudi money if I'm not mistaken, they truly are dull as ditchwater. Newcastle was always a team I enjoyed, Shearer was a monster and yes let's hope Arsenal takes it, anything to spite Man City and their sellout Jack Grealish.

      Thanks a lot! I am happy you liked it. Regarding my favorite team? Well, I have two favorite club teams: My 1a team is LASK from my hometown Linz and my 1b team is Milan. I follow both of these with passion and my nightmare would be to see them play a competitive game against each other. As for national teams, it is all about Italy, Holland and Argentina (yes 2018 kinda sucked) and I am happy if my homecountry (Austria) is doing well. ;)

    I know how you can fix your maldini jersey. I fixed mine. Just order knew maldini numbering and iron right over the old ones carefully. You can even buy the sponsor on the front to iron on. It will set and lay right over top.

    Can I dry my shirts by letting the washing machine spin real quickly (I think its called centrifuge?) or will that have negative effects just like tumble dry?

    • @MySoccerUniverse
      @MySoccerUniverse  4 года назад +1

      You can try to do that, but honestly, I don't think it is good for any lettering you may have on it. But for a plain jersey, I would not have many reservations about it.

    From where do you mostly buy your shirts?

    • @MySoccerUniverse
      @MySoccerUniverse  4 года назад +3

      Hmm, long answer that probably wold warrant a video: My favorite store is Classic Football Shirts (www.classicfootballshirts.co.uk) a lot, but I have to say that they can be pricey at times - so I oder sparingly and mostly when they have a sale.
      Most of the shirts I got in the last two years have been second hand from a local flea market page here in Austria (www.willhaben.at). It is amazing what you can find on these pages and people often sell for low prices just to get rid of stuff. But you also have to check very regularly.
      Sometimes, Zalando and Nike are worth a try, especially towards the end of the season (true for most regular retailers). Rarely, I can find a steal on Amazon, but it happens). And I do the same at local stores, but they rarely sell for under EUR30.
      But I also have to say, I barely have good experiences on eBay. You are very likely to get a counterfeit despite them proclaiming 100% authenticity (rule of thumb: avoid Turkish and Asian sellers even if they are selling from England, Germany etc.)
      I know, long-winded answer, but that is the reality!

    • @MySoccerUniverse
      @MySoccerUniverse  4 года назад

      No, It is actually not a bad idea to pre=treat stains with some soap and cold water or as you said soak it for a bit. In fact, this is how I found out that one of my jerseys was fake since it colored the water and would otherwise probably have ruined some other shirts!

    • @MySoccerUniverse
      @MySoccerUniverse  3 года назад +1

      I would suggest you pre-treat the stains with some soap before putting them into the washer - although most stains will come out with a handwash. For tougher stains (grass and ink), I have a video on how to deal with them - you will find it in this playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLlU6Dr84B6PgjbHx5S83Sppbhk59222U4 As long as you keep the temperature low and have the jerseys in a net, the numbers should be fine, but I would not put the shirt in for a very long wash. I had one number disintegrate on me because I washed it fr 2h (video is also in the playlist).

    They must be fake to do this. None of my authentic jerseys have ever did this and I have washed them on hot and put in dryer inside out on low. I just washed my Arsenal 2021 jersey on hot and dried it and it's fine. Print is fine on sponsor. I have kits dating back to the 80s all ok.

    • @MySoccerUniverse
      @MySoccerUniverse  4 года назад

      Well, it is down to how often do you wear and wash them and of course the temperature setting. Typical recommendations are to use a temperature of 40 and no heat dry. In all honesty given the material using a dryer is waste of electricity as they dry super fast anyway. As for lettering, again it is down to quantity of washing/drying. A few times it is fine - do it multiple times over the years and things tend to come off.
