FC St. Gallen 1980-81 home shirt - L/S - #5 - 7/10 - [L]

    Our own studio photos of the original - never a catalogue image

    Description

    This long-sleeved home shirt of FC St. Gallen dates from the 1980-81 season, in which the Espen finished tenth in the Nationalliga A. Made by adidas, in white/green and featuring the squad number 5, it shows the simple style of those years, when shirts came without names and with minimal detailing.

    Only a few pieces from this early era have survived, so an example like this is a real rarity to come across. The condition is exceptionally good, which is by no means a given for a shirt of this age. For collectors interested in the history of FC St. Gallen, this find is a witness to a season with seven wins, eight draws and eleven defeats.

    Original football shirt of the club FC St. Gallen / FCSG (nickname "St. Gallen") from the Super League.

    The product was manufactured by adidas, is white/green and of the "Home" type from the 1980-81 season in size L.

    The shirt has the squad number #5 printed on the back.

    We grade this item as follows: Very good.

    Details / additions: Many light yellowish spots/discolourations spread across the whole shirt. Some larger stains inside at the bottom hem. The squad number is a bit brittle and has many fine, barely visible cracks.

      Frequently asked questions

      Icon for reviewWhat condition are the shirts in?

      Honest condition details, transparent 1-10 grading and high-resolution original photos - so you see exactly what you get.

      • Our vintage treasures have a history - and sometimes the odd battle scar.
      • We list every flaw plainly and give a clear score from 1 (to love anyway) to 10 (fresh out of the time machine). How we grade is explained in detail on our condition page.
      • We take the photos ourselves in the studio, high-resolution and without Photoshop touch-ups - you can see every seam, every thread and every heroically earned stain.
      Icon for verifiedIs the shirt genuine?

      Yes. We sell verified originals only - no fakes. We check every shirt by hand before it goes on sale: MPN (where available), material and feel, seams, details.

      Icon for barcodeHow does the sizing run?

      Vintage shirts vary a lot depending on era and manufacturer - do not rely on the label alone. On every product page you find the chest width in cm (measured flat). Best compare it with a shirt that fits you well.

      Icon for shopping_bagCan I pick up / try on in store?

      Of course - drop by our store in Zurich and take a look at the shirts before buying (trying on included). Opening hours and address are here on the store page. What you see in the online shop is also in the store. During June/July some shirts are also at our pop-up in Zurich main station. Every shirt shows which location it is at.

      Icon for secureHow do I care for my vintage shirt?

      So your shirt lasts - the essentials in short:

      • Wash inside out, zips closed, 30 °C gentle cycle, detergent for sportswear.
      • Never tumble dry - air dry. Do not iron (at most carefully with steam).
      • Soak stains beforehand (mild soap), never chlorine bleach.
      • Old shirts with brittle print/flock: as rarely as possible, and by hand only.

      The full guide is here: Shirt care.
