Friends, Romans, country men, lend me your ears...
I have bought my first Adidas jacket today!
Here's a picture of how it looks like:
Front View
History
Original Honduras team jacket design from the 1982 World Cup in Spain.
Description
Honduras patch on front; Screen print "Honduras" across back Raglan sleeves with 3-Stripes taping. Zip closure slash pockets. Ribbed collar, cuffs and waistband. Embroidered brandmark on front. 100% polyester. Imported.
Actually, I saw this Honduras jacket about a month back in Heeren Adidas. I thought it looked very cool and "fierce" (don't ask me to explain what do I mean by fierce, that's the impression I had when I saw the jacket. Think of it like tough?). But I didn't buy it then because it was selling at $119. Too expensive for my budget.
Thanks to Jeric who bought Ivy, Mingfang and myself to Bugis Village today, I managed to buy the jacket for only $70! This little stall at Bugis Village was selling it at $85 but because Jeric's a regular, the owner agreed to cut to price to $75. It was further reduced to $70 because there was a slight defect in my jacket. My jacket was missing a small piece of cloth that was supposed to have its serial number (but this is still from the Adidas factory, not pirated). Honestly, I don't care much for the serial number since no one can see it anyway when I wear it. (",)
I especially love the red Honduras at the back. Very cool. It's going to be washed tomorrow and shall make its debut this coming Monday.
