As my collection is growing, I always wanted to document my shirts and I think this is the perfect opportunity to keep on posting to my blog. In case you are still interested in me rating current shirts, I offer you to come over to my YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/MySoccerUniverse and follow me there. Now, I am planning to do these posts in order as they entered my collection which of course is a bit fuzzy esp. at the beginning. But for most cases, I have the order down quite well. But then, for this shirt I am not quite certain whether it is No. 3 or No. 4, but I think I owned it before the one I am going to post next. 🙂
⚽👕#3: LASK Home (1996-1998) 🇦🇹
Acquired: 1996 (Passage Linz – local sports retailer)
Brand: Reebok
Size: X-Large
Version: Fan replica version
Condition: very good (on pull on back and signs of use)
Favorite player: Vidar Riseth 🇳🇴
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Notes: Another quintessential shirt! This one is a true LASK classic and a model of how a proper LASK shirt should look like. It is also helped by the fact that at the time there was a true sense of change around the team and some of my favorite memories of watching the team were in my late teens. In particular the 97-98 season under Norwegian coach Per Brogeland and the then innovative and attractive style of play were a true joy. Heck, we even had the league’s top scorer in Norwegian Geir Frigard. This shirt may also be the first one that I bought with my own money, however I am unsure about the order in which I got my third, fourth and fifth shirt. In any case, I have worn this shirt a lot to LASK games and it is still my go to LASK shirt, so there are quite some signs of wear Interestingly, for the player version, the (then new) crest was one stripe closer to the center and the Reebok logo was centered I order to allow space for the (also then new) league logo resulting in a better look IMHO.
