Hi,

My name is Steven Thewissen and I'm from the Netherlands. I collect soccer jerseys from teams playing in the cities I've visited on my holidays as a souvenir to my time spent there. During my stay in Toronto in 2013 I wanted to buy a Toronto FC jersey but did not get around to doing it. I figured I would buy one from an online store when I got back home. At the time I tried to find an online store but was pretty disappointed to find out that the jersey seems to be quite the niche item which was not that available in online stores as I'd hoped. The odd shop that did sell it wouldn't ship to the Netherlands so I just gave up.

However, I recently found out that the red 2013 jersey which I loved was also being used for the 2014 season. You can imagine my disappointment when I found out that it's availability outside of Canada is still as limited as back then. I've written to numerous shops like SVPSports, SXRetail, SportingLife.ca, RealSports, Toronto FC itself, In2Sports, WorldJersey.ca, MLS Gear Canada and the list just goes on and on. Most of these shops either don't ship abroad or don't have it in stock. The odd one that did have it in stock for a nice price (In2Sports) gave me false hope and had to get back to me a week later that it was out of stock. SVPSports seems to have them in their physical stores but don't ship items. I've been to the end of Google (literally there were no more search results) to find this jersey when I stumbled upon this community. In the meantime I was also contacted through Twitter that someone was willing to buy me one and send it over, but I haven't heard from him in weeks. Coincidentally I noticed he was a member here (djcuse).

I guess what I am trying to say here is that I guess some of you are my only hope. Would anyone on here be willing and able to buy me an authentic Toronto FC 2014 home kit (like the one below) and ship it to The Netherlands (not the replica one, as far as I can tell its far less beautiful)? Payment can be done through PayPal, so there is some form of payment protection on my end. I sincerely hope someone is willing to help me out with this search quest that has lasted years.

Regards,

Steven
