Have you ever wished you could go back to a time when fans
were fans and football was just football, not a multi-billion dollar
politicized sport? I don’t know that we’ll see that simple life return anytime
soon, but thanks to our friends at Vintage Pitch, we can put on a t-shirt
that takes us right back to those carefree days. Created by a hardcore football
fan (who is also a Milanista), Vintage Pitch has created a line of classic
soccer t-shirts that will take you back to that time when the beautiful
game was just about the sport. Vintage times.

While the rumors spread for summer transfers that have
ridiculous costs attached to them, you can go back to the glory days of
football for a very fair price. You can order a Milan
shirt, or maybe a club
shirt for one of your friends or family members who support other
clubs. Or you might want to get an Italy
shirt in time for the Euros this year, or perhaps a Euro
shirt for another country you will be supporting. Or maybe you want a football
legends shirt to support your favorite legend, like the Maldini shirt.
These shirt designs are amazing, they instantly take me back
to a time before sponsors determined the boots players wore and transfer fees
were inflated to the tens of millions, and football was played to entertain.
Before social media ruined everything, people could wear great calcio
shirts like these to support their favorite calcio teams. Back to a time
when people spoke to each other, actually went to the stadium, and maybe even
bought great soccer gifts like these for one
another.

In over five years of blogging here, I have never had any
advertising here for any type of product or service. But I had to let you know
about these great football shirts because they
were created by a fellow Milanista, friend, and regular
podcast guest here. So please take some time to check out the Vintage
Pitch site, shop, and share. We don’t want this business to go the way
of Milan these past three years. These amazing Italian soccer shirts need
to be like the glory days of Milan so we can see lots of new designs and
success for our fellow Milanista.
Football has become so commercialized today, but ironically
this little startup shirt company helps us to
remember football’s roots. With classic football shirts that take us back to
the time when fans were fans, players were men, and football was truly a
beautiful game. Vintage Pitch reminds us of vintage
times.
This post inspired by an amazing
Milanista and calcio fan with a dream and some fantastic t-shirt designs
Our next match is
Atalanta vs. Milan
