I’m having a devil of a time finding US Men’s National Team soccer merchandise in my size (XXL). I wanna support my team and all that, but apparently you have a) be prepared to shell out $90+ bux, and b) have a medium build (I saw one site that only offered small :eek: ). Can anyone with better google-fu than me point me to an on-line retailer that peddles soccer jerseys & such for fans, preferably with USMNT regalia (I’ve found plenty that offer stuff for players)? ---

Here are a few good sites: [WorldSoccerShop](http://www.worldsoccershop.com/shop-by-country-usa-usa-national-soccer-team.html) [OnionBag](http://www.onionbag.com/usa-jerseys-316.aspx) [Eurosport](http://www.soccer.com/Navigation.process?Ne=645&Srp=24&N=4294959190) [Kitbag](http://www.kitbag.com/stores/kitbag_4_5/football/product_browse.aspx?cid=77&mnuid=77) [Soccer Corner](http://www.soccercorner.com/USA-s/131.htm) But, yes, most new shirts go for around $70-90. You can probably find cheaper shirts on eBay, but you have to watch for fakes. Also, depending on where you live, you might have one or more local shops that have US shirts. Finally, there’s a chance that the US will get new shirts for the World Cup. If that happens, the current shirts will go on sale. ---

Thanks for that! I wonder, is the UK XXL the same as the US XXL? I’d hate to pay for international shipping and find that my garment is too small. ---

> [@HeyHomie](#): > > Thanks for that! > > I wonder, is the UK XXL the same as the US XXL? I’d hate to pay for international shipping and find that my garment is too small. I believe that UK sizes match up to lower US size, so that a medium in the US is a large in the UK. I think that all of the links I provided are US-based, though, so that shouldn’t be an issue. If you’re willing to pay for international shipping, another good site is [Subside Sports](http://www.subsidesports.com/uk/store/product_list.jsp?id=67). Also, the first site I should’ve sent you to us the [official US Soccer store](http://ussoccerstore.com/). They have the current home and away shirts on sale for $65, though they don’t have any XXLs in stock at the moment unfortunately. ---
