Football Equipment

Officially Licensed Club Training and Match Accessories

The playing half of the range rather than the souvenir half. Drinks bottles are the largest group, followed by goalkeeper and training gloves, shin pads, captains armbands, sock ties and wristbands, with dual-action football pumps and kick trainers for Manchester City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool, Tottenham and the UEFA Champions League.

For playing, or for the kit bag?

Some of this is genuinely used and some is not. Pumps, shin pads, gloves and kick trainers are equipment — they go to training and they wear out. Crested bottles, armbands and sock ties sit between use and souvenir: perfectly usable, but usually bought because of the badge. For someone in a Sunday league side, the equipment half is the one that gets used.

Is this match-standard or a novelty?

The pumps, shin pads and gloves are functional equipment built to be used, not display pieces — a dual-action pump inflates a real match ball. What the licence adds is the crest, not a change in specification, so judge the item on its own description rather than assuming the badge implies pro-level kit.
