I was wondering too. Could it be that all jerseys have it, but it only shows when on specific body frames? -- No, no, you can't e-mail me with the nono.

I briefly browsed through it before posting here, but couldn't find it. On a side note, I thought France always used Le Coq Sportif, didn't notice when they switched to Adidas. -- HASM

It does show the black stripes, and they must be part of the ClimaCool system http://www.press.adidas.com/desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-55/61_read-161/ even though I'm not sure I believe all those claims ... -- HASM |
