It’s the norm down here and has been since I was little - just found it interesting
No problem and my original comment that am an adult so don't buy footy shirts was not intended as a dig at anyone and wasn't intended to cause a debate on the subject of should adults wear football tops
Am not sure where down here is lol, am in Liverpool myself and I can't think of any of my friends who do wear them, I do see the odd person wearing a footy top and unless they are going the game or the pub to watch it even then it's not the norm to see many wear them in the pub, u do get the odd full kit wanker but they are always all kopites with the mental age of a small child

Didn’t take it as a dig - just curious as my experience growing up to now is totally different.
Down here is Cardiff
It must be the South Wales Supporters Club whom keep the club shop going. First thing everyone does when getting off the bus by the Abbey is go into the club shop. I know 50 and 60 year old men who buy every shirt every season
Meh, do you what want. It's only weird to local Evertonians because the try-hards across the road won't have a wank without their LFC Condoms on, let alone walk into town without letting everybody know who they support.
Tbf the last time I wore a everton top in public I was on a bike ride some kopite started giving me shit as I rode past, I ended up chasing him down and smashing his bike up, he had a hard time pushing his bike back to where ever he came from with every spoke snapped and wheels looking like a pringles, I like to think he will now think twice about giving random people shit while they are minding there own buisness just trying to enjoy a bike ride but as he was a kopite I doubt he has the brain capacity to understand the lesson he was given

i just dont buy them not since i was in my teens, i have a few old tops that people bought for me think they are all le coq ones with chang on them
i only wear them either in the house when nothing else is clean or maybe to the gym or if am having a kick about
am 42 i just dont class football shirts as normal clothes and wouldnt go the pub or the shops in one, if people want to thats up to them its just not for me and something i grew out of in my teens
I’m the same. I have a khaki Everton hoodie (zip on the wrong side, may be a women’s one) and an Everton Christmas jumper that I wear, and an Everton coat I have never worn. All were presents off folk.
I would wear shirts for play footy or 5-a-side in but that’s about it. I did buy a local footy shirt when I was in India but I do also suffer from the beer belly issue - it looked fucking painted on!
So they don’t suit me as a fatter than average bastard, but it’s also not my style, either.
And full kit adults are just a cry for help and yet another damning indictment of how tragically underfunded our mental health services are.
