That £5 estimate is likely based on merchandise made in China / Bangladesh / Indonesia / etc and I doubt it includes quality embroidery and patches. Having the merchandise made in Korea (and thus not using sweatshops) and having it come from the same provider that SKT uses (so it's actually official SKT merchandise) makes the base price considerably higher. We are not misleading anyone, as we said, if this was anything but something from SKT we simply wouldn't bring it to market due to the costs.

I am going to med school so now I have no money Man I want one of these shirts so badly. Great that TL even has this offer, would have been sick to watch old bw games while wearing one of these.
|
lol i got a TL shirt but this... $70 is a lot, even for a polo...
|
I will do anything for someone to buy this for me. Please.
EDIT: THANK YOU SUSIE SHIN NOONA

2XL sold out already

Nothing is ever gonna beat Susie with the Adidas SKT shirt + Boxer autograph + Bunkie doll for 50$ including shipping, but that was exceptional.
Having SKT shirts on the TL store is a dream coming true. It's something that would have sounded impossible during the BW era. Mad props for that TL.
|
Do these shirts fit true to size? I'm a size small according to the size chart but I'm not sure if I should size up just incase or just stick with a small....

You are welcome

I don't really like polo shirts sadly. A jacket or long sleeve shirt would definitely sell me though.
|
I was gonna buy this, just can't do it right now unfortunately.
