Albania Macron Third Away Shirt 2017

This was another pick up from a seconds factory that failed quality control.  I had previously actually got hold of a fake gogoalshop version of this shirt back in 2017 that was not that good due to material and sizing being obviously incorrect.  The was a genuine second and it is noticeably different to the fake shirt.  This was the first generation of Macron shirt for Albania in 2016 where the team used for the Euros and this was a third away shirt.  Its a very cool looking shirt and it really gave a worthy design instead of a usual template then add crest.

It shares that same "Korean" collar as the home and away shirt in this series.

The nice eagle sign flying

Has a nice sleeve design.  

The diamond details fading in towards the bottom of the shirt.  As expected the real deal is of better correct fitting than the fake.  They seem to size things incorrectly for some reason with the fakes.

At the back you can see the defect in the material, there were 2 dark blotches that for some reason had bleeded into the material from the inside.

Secondly defect found was the Macron logo press, there is a noticeable square mark left behind around the logo. 

 

Armenia Macron Away Shirt

This is another pick up from the world of unwanted seconds or failed quality runs.  And it is a very nicely made Armenia away shirt by Macron.  I see no visible defects with it and it is a bright happy shirt to wear out.

Round neck design

No problems with the crest, its finely embroided.

Standard Macron trademark sleeves.  It does look bigger that it really is, but a bit like the Cyprus shirt previously.

Mesh down on the side.

The graphic detail on the shirt is nice.  It looks a bit creased here but after a wash and dry it is fine.

It has a flag at the back.

The back is pretty much what you would expect.  Overall a nice shirt for a few dollars.

Cyprus Macron Shirt 2019

Another catch this time a Cyprus 2019 Macro shirt.  Although the design is not anything extra ordinary apart from the collar, it is a nice shirt.

The double collar design.

A nice crest.

All usual from the back.

The label and tags all in the right place.

May be the defect on in the size of the cuffs, again it seems like disproportionally large compare to the shirt size.

But this is highly unlikely to be a fake as the detail is immaculate, look at this emblem in the collar.

Congo Rep Macron Shirt

The was a very interesting thing from global jerseys again. It is a Congo Republic of (Brazzaville) Macron Shirt. Its a decent design and I always like good looking African countries shirt. 

Everything is implanted and no transfers. Like the Niger shirt. Therefore, I am not sure how they get these as they can't just buy this template and then do the transfers. 

Even down to the Macron logos it is implanted this time. 

Overall, I think this was a good catch no matter what as its quite a cool shirt and not one that you can get easily even though you may argue this is not an authentic replica. 

 

Guinea Macron shirt

Another https://global-jerseys.com/  While this shirt has appeared in Footy Headlines and been slagged of as boring as hell.  I thought I will take a look at it as see how they glued the crest on to a stock shirt.   

This is well transferred onto the shirt.  I wonder how long and many washes it can last.

This is transferred on and I really wonder how long it will last.  Its kind of like a quick attempt to give the template shirt some design.

The template itself is not totally bland, it has a skirting at the side.  The material is also quite good with pinstripes vertically.

The sleeve is actually tapered. and I can feel it would be a slim fit like shirt in a smaller size.

Plain and a bit boring but one for the collection nevertheless.  I am sure the next one when Macron have more time, it will be a lot better.  I hope this will be available more easily as I always been keen to get a good Guinea shirt.  The flag colours are wicked.

Albania Macron Shirt

This is probably the first most decorated and thought out design for Albania.

And I quite like it too.  Its not just a template and then badged.

The collar shape is interesting.

The eagle.

Sleeves are good shape.  Nice narrow fit.

Overall a very decent shirt and may be a classic once its put out 

of circulation.

Crystal Palace Macron Away shirt 15-16

Being a great fan of the white, red and blue trim combo.  It was great to try out a palace away shirt since these are their iconic away colours.  Well I am not disappointed, this is one of the best shirts I have put on recently.

Collar's two colour combination is great.  The sash down the bottom middle is a good change from a diagonal sash.

Sleeves are of great length.  This players edition is also slimmer fit with a minor curve in shape.

The eagles embroidery is OK but it's an area Macron can improve upon.

The semi cuff at the sleeve is a nice touch too.

Nice red and blue on the other side dash at the bottom.

Overall this is one fantastic shirt and looks great when worn.  Has a nice snug bit not tight shape about it.  Looks fit when you wear.  The only downside is the embroidery, it can be made smoother.  I know Macron can do it like they did on the Napoli shirts.  Other downside is the sponsors and the size of it slapped down the middle.  But can't avoid it.  The material is nice elastane stretchy type that Macron seemed to do well, at least I quite like it.  Although not everyone's cup of tea.
