It’s been a great pleasure filming content for this channel peeps 🍻 In 2024 I’ll be dropping down to part time hours in my “employed work” to free up more time for “Ry’s Football Paradise” 😁👍🏾 …some great content coming your way & Merry Xmas! 🎅🏼
I’ve been a kit collector for most of a decade. Unless someone took the kit off your back and nitpicked every detail, you wouldn’t know the difference from the real thing. DHgate has allowed me to buy some classic kits I couldn’t pay $300 USD for. Also allows you to wear and enjoy the kit without the worry of ruining a $150 kit playing with your buddies at the local pitch.
I'd never buy off classic football shirts. Sorry but I like vintage kits and who the F wants a kit thats damn near 30 years old? Would feel like pure shite@@RysFootyParadise
DH Gate will forever get popular as kits are inflating in price every year! As a kit collector I love collecting the official retro kits for my own personal collection. Anything that comes out I like recent I simply refuse to pay £80-£100+ for a shirt and then that on top for family and friends. The quality is un matched for the recent shirts and you could not tell unless you product checked the codes.
I remember buying that England shirt at the time. The dates on it relate to the launch date and when it was going to last used. At the time parents were getting fed up of the constant change it shirts, nothing new there, but with these dates Umbro were being completely up front on how long the shirt would be around for. I gave all my England shirts, probably about 20, away to a charity shop a few years back when I decided to have a clear out. Then a few years after the shirt market exploded. I probably gave away over £1.5k worth in shirts
Crazy the prices of shirts from back in the day but I suppose the whole collectables market has exploded - I made a bit of my Pokémon stuff a couple years ago… people love to collect… I collect Corinthian figures but they’re generally inexpensive still
@@RysFootyParadise I've a few of those Corinthian figures too. One thing I noticed in the background was what looked like a box of tissues from France 98. I remember buying a box and it collapsing almost straight away. Amazed to see it still in one piece.
Made that mistake myself, got rid of dozens from the 90s & 00s. Only regret was keeping the 2004 shirt & getting rid of the 2002 home (the 04 is reversible). I might sell a few I have as they must have some value to someone.
Hi Ry, this is what the pattern on the Villa shirt represents. “The Castore Aston Villa 2023-24 home football shirt is claret and blue with a discreet pattern of soundwaves, representing the sound of fans chanting "Allez, Allez, Allez" on matchdays”. UTV!
Recently got the United third shirt after watching your review recently. Great content and hopefully you’ll make it to Dean Court aka the vitality stadium soon for a tour! 🍒⚽️👏🏼
Thanks mate, yea deffo on the list of places to visit! Was planning on holding Bournemouth & Brighton off until the warmer weather to double them up with a trip to the beach 😁🏝️
I remember having that England shirt as a kid brought it in for show and tell and had to put in my bag and by the end of the day someone nicked it 😢 might have to get it if DH gate. Great video mate 👍
That 2002 England is a gem (as was the red "reversible" change top). I stupidly let mine go to keep my 2004 one & regret it now. I'll keep trawling for a preowned effort but Beckham is right, that was the best England shirt & Id say our best since 2000. Me? Im more into the Admiral ones or 1980s Umbro tops up to 1992.

But on eBay they cost a fortune because of Becks 😆 maybe they're on dh gate I not seen yet I'm new to the Chinese shirt game feel like I'm gonna be like you and buy em all! 😂 So much better than the ones they had in Spain and Turkey in the 90s as a kid probably why I never looked at them online cos of how terrible the fakes were back then.

Absolutely nothing wrong with buying a fake kit/shirt as long as its a decent copy. Literally all of my football shirts are fake but you couldn't tell unless you were an expert on the kits. Why should I pay £90 for a real one when I can get a great copy for a tenner? It still serves the exact same purpose but cheaper!
Great Video Ry, I do agree that CFS prices are insane. I have an immaculate Man Utd Track Top, Umbro from 1992 that sells for £200 on their site. I have The 2002 Ireland shirt that has similar markings like your England shirt. I don’t think anyone can tell much difference in the fake/ real shirts.
Hello. What does it mean on DH Gate when you click on their shirt options and some show patches and some don"t? Does it mean you can choose a shirt without the patches?
If it gives you the option to choose patches then you could choose it, if it doesn’t let you choose then you can’t get patches. It just depends on the seller and how they run it.
Merry Christmas! Another great video….like the Villa shirt the best, although the United shirts come a close second. I must have about 30 DH gate shirts now, and ironically the only bad one was a Northern Ireland current home shirt (being from NI, it felt a bit strange ordering one from China when the real one is only about £40 anyway!)…when it arrived, the collar button was wrong (it should be white, not clear) and I don’t think whoever made it had ever seen a genuine one in the flesh….the shades of green are completely wrong. Apart from that….its great!😂
Hahaha oh no 😅 unlucky on that one mate, I reckon it’s like a 1 in 20 chance of getting something not so good - or 1 in 30 in your case which is pretty decent to be fair 🤣
The villa one is miles off it, the blue on the badge gives off lumens and on most fakes the yellow of the 8 is the thing you notice most but I can’t really tell on this one
Great video mate. I got my first shirt off dhgate a couple of weeks ago- this seasons home united shirt players version, and it’s bang on! However bought a Canada goose Jacket and it ripped the first time wearing it. Looked good but very poor quality unfortunately. Which seller do you recommend for the retro shirts? They look good quality. Thanks
It's a little subjective I feel like, when we talk about "fake" shirts. The manufacturing process probably isn't much different, to how they would normally do it. Plus, the fan shirts are replicas anyways and that's basically what a fake is. Well, not quite "fake", but it is a copy at least, hardly much of a difference. They look alright to me. Not sure what the discrepancies even are, but they look good.
Yeah exactly that mate… some people get funny about it - but the fact clubs are charging £110 for something that is basically the same as something off DH Gate for £13 is a no brainier for most football fans - especially as the bloody shirt changes every year 😅
@@RysFootyParadise Yeah i completely agree, I have a couple Arsenal authentics as it is. Got mine with Jesus on it when he signed, love a number 9. So it's a no brainer for me. I've got tonnes of "real" ones anyways, so kinda don't have the need to spend over £100+ anymore. Even the replicas in Sports Direct and JD are £70, proper expensove every year. Video games are the same too lol.
Haha i actually did do this! England shirt for father in law, ireland shirt for dad, Man Utd shirt for myself, man utd personalized shirt for eldest lad, and a Rangers shirt for my cousins hubby (booo!). All of them, inc myself, very happy!
look at the reviews and the sold items. if it has like 4.3 stars and over 1-2k sold it should be a good supplier. If it has good reviews with high numbers sold you should be good
Carlos Alcaraz got so much negativity for wearing a ‘fake’ Arsenal Bergkamp jersey. It’s really a crap shoot on getting these older retro jerseys in your size. Plus I personally don’t see an issue. I like the old premier league sleeve badges better. Fav is the England strip. I would get the long sleeves.
Yeah most the early 90s shirts have “official” printing that looks brand new… not realistic as most the printing back then was plain and thick and furry 😁
@@RysFootyParadise sold them one of my dads on villa shirts on the manufactures tag it has his initials on as a prank they sold the shirt and added a fake name tag.. payed me £37 for the shirt claiming it was ‘damaged’ sold it as an excellent condition shirt for well over £250 avoid them mate
No mention of it being a player's version on the villa screenshot you posted,if it doesn't say its normally a fan version.. no heat pressing anywhere on it at all and material looks like a fan version. Decent for a fan version though but its never a player version
they've done you dirty then, literally nothing about it is a player version that's a fan version. Normally when you buy a player version it will say it in the title of what you've bought with the size etc yours doesn't, fair enough the picture might have indicated it was but they've 100% sent you a fan version.
@@BaileyMxX yeah I’ve bought loads of DH Gate mate, deffo a fan - but should have been a player - that said that’s the beauty of DH Gate, they barely cost anything so you can afford to take the risk 😁🍻
@@RysFootyParadise was just thinking compared to a decade ago the fan versions have came on leaps and bounds. Both the villa and wolves I wouldn't have a clue that they weren't real as a non fan of either club. Both look decent TBF
Football shirts for Australia are outrages in price you pay $130 for the shirt then you pay $100 shipping and at that point I’d rather eight dhgate jerseys lol

Just chose on who’s got the most good feedback really mate 😊
How do you use the website ? Every time i search a players name it comes up with no results ive tried everything
Does anyone have a link for the Ajax 21/22 Bob Marley Third Kit? I can’t seem to find on DH Gate….
So just to confirm, they do come with the sponsor like nike/adidas ??? Because on the website they are not on the kit.
they do that because of copyright reasons. But the actual product should have them on

@DD93AFC I suppose people are still buying them so the prices aren’t gonna drop 😁
My 2 Villa shirts were awful. Went a size up and are too big also. 2 spurs ones were great though.
Watching your videos is always tempting me to get more shirts. Happy Christmas and good luck with the videos in the new year, always enjoy them.
Haha addictive isn’t it 😅
Ordered an AC Milan 13/14 Home jersey (no name) and a Real Madrid Vini JR jersey (black). Can''t wait!
That blue and white Man Utd 3rd kit is 👌
Had 2 bad shirts off Ali express but got my money back. Knew they were gonna be crap as they were 6 euro each
Haha i actually did do this! England shirt for father in law, ireland shirt for dad, Man Utd shirt for myself, man utd personalized shirt for eldest lad, and a Rangers shirt for my cousins hubby (booo!). All of them, inc myself, very happy!
aidksport,it's a good choice.
Hi what was the name of the supplier on DH Gate you got your England shirt from. There’s that many suppliers but yours looks decent tbf
look at the reviews and the sold items. if it has like 4.3 stars and over 1-2k sold it should be a good supplier. If it has good reviews with high numbers sold you should be good
I can’t see any shirts on DH Gate
They’re everywhere 😅
Ive bought a ton of shirts off DHG, only had a handful that have been iffy.
hey can you give me advice on the sizing? im 181cm 80 kg and want a bit of an oversize look but im not sure if L or XL will do the job
idk if i should trust the spider man kit from 2005 it has 2 reviews but the seller has 99999 orders

I really enjoy watching your dhgate shirt review videos. Could you next time please review the 2016/17 Real Madrid away kit with Ronaldo on the back?
Or if you don’t want to buy the Real Madrid one you can buy a Manchester United one, like the iconic 2007/08 home kit with Ronaldo on the back

I have got the same England kit on classic football shirt for 20 pounds which shows you don't need to buy fakes just have some patience
