David Beckham is About to Rock Your Body

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

Beckham Fantastic Man

Hands in everything, that David Beckham.

David Beckham, who you might remember from Manchester United, underwear, Real Madrid, adidas Predator commercials, Posh Spice, underwear, the LA Galaxy, Landon Donovan beef, The Beckham Experiment by Grant Wahl, cologne, tattoos, underwear, England’s 2018 World Cup bid, AC Milan, a close friendship with Gary Neville, various hairstyles, underwear, and, of course, the film Bend It Like Beckham (although he was never in it), is getting ready to give you something else to remember him by, in 1800 stores in 40 different countries.

Nutmeg Radio’s Cool Station: Teal Bunbury BOON-BOO-REE Tees

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

BoonBooRee T-Shirt

By now we’re probably all familiar with the Pablo Ramirez BOON-BOO-REE call of Teal Bunbury’s goal against Chile. If you happened to miss it, you can catch up here.

A few minutes after the goal, we tweeted the following:

“I like the BOON-BOO-REE. I like the BOON-BOO-REE!” — Instant classic. Tell your kids about that one. Matter of fact, that’s a t-shirt.”

Well, ladies and gentlemen, now it is a t-shirt. (more…)

New Nike Brazil Jersey Not as Bad as the Sierra Leone Jersey

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

Sierra Leone Jersey

This Hummel Sierra Leone jersey is … well, self-explanatory. Actually, it reminds me of a story a friend told me when he recently returned from Spain.

During my friend’s visit to the home of the world champions, he accompanied his girlfriend to visit her uncle and aunt who live just outside of Barcelona. My friend’s Spanish is virtually non-existent and the uncle and aunt barely speak English. It was one of those situations.  (more…)

Nutmeg Radio’s Cool Station: Who Are Ya Designs’ MAN UTD Shirt

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

Manchester United RUN DMC

If I liked Manchester United, I would definitely get this shirt. But I don’t.

For all you Manchester United fans, don’t let that stop you though. We may not support the same team, but I can appreciate a cool shirt when I see one. That’s why this Run-DMC-style MAN UTD shirt from Who Are Ya Designs gets some love on Nutmeg Radio’s Station Cool. (more…)

Nutmeg Radio’s Cool Station: Air Diego Tees

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

Air Diego

Here we are, face to face, a couple of silver spoons. Think about that.

Anyway, if you begin checking back in these parts more frequently, we’ll begin sharing some of our favorite things with you. Lots of it will be apparel, probably a few websites, people, places, things, and who knows, maybe even a few animals. If we get into animals, I can tell you in advance that it will have something to do with a chimpanzee. We can all agree that chimps are the coolest and most useful animals ever. Not to mention, incredibly dexterous (not related to the Showtime series).

Anyway, first up on Station Cool is a sumptuous “Air Diego” shirt designed by David Cumming. If the shirt needs explanation, you probably won’t want to buy it. Nevertheless, I’ll give a basic rundown of why it’s cool. (more…)

Pablo Aurrecochea, Baddest Goalkeeper in the World, Plays Dress Up During Match … Again

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

Pablo Aurrecochea

Uruguayan goalkeeper Pablo Aurrecochea is a certifiable, bad mother shut-yo-mouth. Last night, Aurrecochea, who plays for Club Guarani of Paraguay, faced off against Argentina’s River Plate in the Copa Sudamericana in this fly Superman goalkeeper jersey. If that doesn’t intimidate the opposition, I don’t know what will. I mean, nothing gets by Superman, right? (more…)

Louis Vuitton Puts a Stranglehold on FIFA World Cup Marketing

by The Chairman

LVHM - Maradona Pele Zizou

We’ve given you some insight into the levels that some of the world’s best known brands have gone to market to football fans.  However, it seems like none compare to the marketing efforts of Louis Vuitton.  The luxury brand has taken its affiliation with football a step further with its latest campaign featuring the one name wonders, Pele, Maradona and Zizou.  The latest campaign features the three icons of football playing a game of fussball in a bar while they reminisce about their glory days. Check it out here. (more…)

Nike’s Netherlands Jacket – Supplementing Your World Cup Wardrobe

by Clive Longbottom-Fellow, Esq.

Netherlands Jacket

If you happen to root for another team outside of the U.S., the Netherlands wouldn’t be a bad choice.  They’ve got some decent players, and their color combinations are, well, better than most.  If you think about it, style has long been a part of Dutch football.  Cruyff,  total football, Gullit’s flowing locks, Edgar David’s goggles — all stylish and iconic images that we associate with Dutch football.
