They are dirty, smelly and tell the story of a match, an entire tournament or even a part of football history.
Matchworn jerseys, due to their uniqueness, are certainly the highlight of any jersey collection .

As my goal of owning a jersey from each of the 211 FIFA nations approached, the thought of having a worn or prepared jersey from each nation in my collection grew.

As it is not always easy to determine the authenticity of each matchworn/issued jersey directly, there is a long research process behind each of them so that I can add each shirt to my "matchworn collection" with a clear conscience!
