Chicharito Manchester United Jersey Review Pros And Cons Plus Price Comparison

So I’ve been wanting a Chicharito Manchester United jersey for ages, right? That guy was fire during his time at Old Trafford. Finally decided to pull the trigger last month and figured I’d document the whole thing for you guys.

The Hunting Begins

First I checked my usual sports stores downtown. No luck at all – dude left United like ten years ago so obviously they ain’t stocking it. Went home super bummed and fired up my laptop. Started digging through reseller sites like a crazy person. Must’ve clicked through twenty pages of overpriced vintage stuff before finding anything decent.

Choosing The Version

Found three options that looked legit:

  • A 2010 home jersey with Premier League patches ($120)
  • Same season but Champions League version ($145)
  • Some sketchy “replica” from Thailand ($35)

Had to decide quick cause these things disappear fast. Ended up picking the Premier League one cause honestly? Those gold patches look sick.

Hands-On Inspection

Package arrived looking like it survived a war – thanks international shipping. But inside? Beautiful. That classic red fabric still felt thick and the Aon sponsor logo hadn’t cracked at all. Stitched numbers were crisp too. Only issues:

  • Neckline had slight yellowing (prob storage issues)
  • Fit was tighter than modern jerseys (felt like wearing shrinkwrap!)

Tried it with jeans immediately. Looked fire but couldn’t breathe properly.

Price Check Reality

Checked what others were charging after I bought mine:

  • Same jersey on auction sites: $95 to $160
  • Local retro store: $200 (!) for worse condition
  • Those Thai knockoffs? Total garbage – printing peeled like sunburn

Kinda felt okay paying $120 after seeing that mess.

Final Verdict

If you’re gonna buy old school jerseys:
Pros: Looks iconic as hell, materials built like tanks, Chicharito’s name never goes out of style.
Cons: Prepare for weird fits, yellowing fabrics, and serious wallet damage.

Worth it? Absolutely – until my girlfriend saw the credit card bill. Still hiding that thing under the mattress.
