About Us
Normally people would turn around when they pass by someone cute...
...but I turn around when I pass by someone wearing a football shirt.
To see the name on the back.
I remember that I first became interested in football back in 2002, when I got my first football magazine with an introduction of the teams participating in that World Cup.
Then, on a trip to Germany, I got my first shirt, which was several sizes too big (just look at the hands).
I won't say that I'm that old, but back then, you could only dream of a suitable size, and especiall with a player name on the back.
Since then, collecting T-shirts has become something special.
Here's something that I remember I got: the German national team, the Spanish national team, the Zidane T-shirt, the French national team in 2006, Raul and Van Nistelrooy at Real, Arsenal with Wenger, Inter Milan with Mourinho, Milan with Allegri, Bayern Munich with Guardiola, Napoli with Mazzari, Roma with Totti, Milan with Ronaldo, Portugal with Cristiano Ronaldo, Barcelona, Marseille with Didier Deschamps.
And these are just the ones I remember.
I always wanted football to be a part of my life, because the "fuse" and energy that it has is incomparable with any other activity.
At the same time, I was involved in business, marketing and everything, but the tab with football news in the browser always remained in the first place.
And one of these news items was an article about how guys sell T-shirts and what a big business it has become.
That's how Shorty, Football Shirts was founded on 11th June, 2024.
Further things began to develop rapidly.
The first sold T-shirt was Pohang Steelers from the Korean League:
Which I bought in Georgia and sold to Belgium (!)
The second one was sold on the same day.
In the first 2 weeks, sales exceeded my plans for 2 months in advance.
Now Shorty, Football Shirts is my passion and my hobby at the same time. When a sale happens, I am happy, but also a little upset at the same time :) They (the T-shirts) are just too cool.
Purchasing from us you can be sure in 3 things:
- all shirts are 100% original (we have a triple-checking system)
- since we're young we keep the prices slightly below competitors
- you get a good condition shirts that we'd have bought ourselves (if you have any complaints — we'll do a refund, no questions asked)
Glad to see you here!
