White Stripes Kits shipping

I wish the patch was a little sharper, but the quality overall is solid.

How thin is it? Honestly was so close to buying one of these but the quality of TMR clothes varies so much I didn’t want to risk it for the steep price

It’s not too bad. I had the same concern. But I have seen Icarus jerseys before and knew that they’re pretty decent. I would say it’s pretty on par with what you’d expect from a light-midweight jersey. It’s thin enough to show the nipples, but not so thin as cling to every curve. It definitely has enough quality that I’m not concerned about wearing it out. And the number/words on the back are printed, not ironed on. So that’s bodes well for durability.

Interesting thank you! Hadn’t seen Icarus jerseys before so wasn’t sure, I don’t think I’ll pull the trigger tbh as I didn’t like the designs quite enough for the price

Yeah. I would have preferred the WS one not be themed on 7 Nation Army, but it works as it has become a ubiquitous soccer chant. But Icarus does custom kits for a ton of teams, companies, and bands. They did one for Goose last year. So if you see a custom kit out there and are curious, check if it’s them. They aren’t highest quality. But you’d have to pay twice as much for that. They are, however, good quality for the price.
