OUR AUTHENTICITY PROCESS

3rd Half Verified Authentic badge

Authenticity
matters.

We take the shirts we sell seriously. Our checks cover their source, labels and details, so you can shop with more confidence.

What we check
A closer look at a football shirt at 3rd Half

SOURCE. LABELS. DETAILS.

What we check.

We look at the whole shirt—not just one label.

A full football shirt from our stock

Source

We review where a shirt comes from and the information available about it. Then we look at the shirt itself.

Labels

We inspect tags, branding and product codes where present. Older shirts can have different labels, so the brand and era matter too.

Details

We examine the fabric, stitching, crest and sponsor. A matching code alone isn’t enough—we look at the whole shirt.

WORTH KNOWING

Names, numbers
and patches.

A genuine shirt can have printing added later. If you’re looking for an original nameset or patch, ask us about the specific shirt before buying.

We take care with our assessments, but older shirts can have missing labels or later alterations, and our checks cannot provide complete certainty. This does not affect your statutory rights.
