The story behind this shirt

Tottenham Hotspur reached the Champions League quarter finals in 2010/11, and Gareth Bale’s hat trick away at Internazionale in the group stage is the single passage of play most associated with that campaign. He was still wearing 3, a defender’s number, which is exactly what makes the shirt distinctive now that he is remembered as a forward. This is a youth sizing, which usually means it was bought for a child at the time and worn far less than an adult equivalent.

Frequently asked questions

Is this an original Puma shirt or a modern reproduction?
It is an original Puma shirt from the period, not a reproduction or a fan made copy. Every shirt we list is inspected against manufacturer labelling, construction and badge application before it goes on sale.

What does a condition rating of 8/10 mean?
Very good. Worn but well kept, minor age related wear only. We grade every shirt on a ten point scale where 10 is unworn and 7 is honest vintage wear. Photographs show the actual item you receive.

Was the Gareth Bale nameset original to the shirt?
No. The nameset was applied by TheFootballIdiots using period appropriate lettering. We state this openly on every shirt we letter ourselves so you always know what you are buying.

What size is this and how does it fit?
Size 164 (youth). Sizing on football shirts varies considerably by manufacturer and by decade, and shirts from the 1990s generally run larger than modern equivalents. Measurements are available on request before you order.
