gftChris Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 As if it wasn't bad enough to have the only team a lot of British people have heard of being the Ravens - one guy I spoke to only knew one player, Joe Flacco. Now, it seems as if wearing a Raiders hat has become fashionable, I've seen multiple people on the streets of London wearing things like this. As I say, distressing.

gftChris Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 The only jersey I can get from the europe shop is a Colt McCoy one might get the beanie though. http://europe.nflshop.com/stores/nfl/products/product_browse.aspx?category|category_root|33411=shop%20by%20team&category|cat_33411|33466=afc&category|cat_33466|33471=cleveland%20browns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowburn Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 can't you purchase your gear at the American NFL shop? BTW, their prices are outrageous. like MIK said, check out EBAY. The money saved will keep you in pints while the Browns dismantle the fish next month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, it seems as if wearing a Raiders hat has become fashionable, I've seen multiple people on the streets of London wearing things like this. As I say, distressing. It was...and may still be a fact that people that wore Raiders gear had no affiliation for the Raiders. They were gang bangers who wore it for identity. A number of schools even banned the wearing of Raider gear. I suggest the same thing goes on there....though with them it is more of a fashion statement than a gang affiliation flag. Like some probably wear a Yankees hat. Many people that wear these colors have no clue even what the Yankees/Raiders/etc. etc. are all about. They just want to wear the fashion. Like wearing something with a Nike Swoosh. If it is any consolation, I have never seen anyone around here at least wear a West Ham or Man U. cap. (and if it is any further consolation, very few over here would know any soccer players other than Beckham or Pele) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buy the generic Browns gear....or, if you must buy player gear....buy "Throwback" player gear. You can never go wrong buying a Jim Brown, Ozzie Newsome, Bernie Kosar etc. gear. http://www.amazon.com/Reebok-Cleveland-Browns-Premier-Throwback/dp/B000QSHPB8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if you are a big guy I have your solution. See the first item on the list (Kosar Jersey) But if not pickings really are slim over in your part of the world. But I suggest as a true Browns fan that you get some gear and proudly wear it around. We need more Browns fans throughout the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennel Club Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I wear my Cribbs top and Elf beanie hat with pride. To be fair there aren't many of us Brownie fans in Blighty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, there are several patrons on this board. You, gftchris, Kmac, howiedawg, gareth (though I rarely see him post). Different parts of the country though I guess. You are from Kent (btw, my mother grew up in Gillingham), Kmac is from Scotland, Howie and Gareth from the Cotswolds (they are the Cocks of the Cotswolds I hear)...gft...not sure. We are waiting for that time when the Browns get the London gig....maybe to play the Jags. Then maybe a few of us can get over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I believe Raiders were 2nd behind Dallas for a long time in apparel sales... prolly cause silver was the new black... or something.. Amazon carries jerseys and more... not sure about Amazon.UK.... but I've bought items on Amazon UK and shipping "across the pond" is not too dear...
