Shearer wore Mizuno at Southampton and when you consider he played for them Blackburn and Newcastle not exactly a one club man. German players only wore adi because they had to as part of the national team contract. Lothar Matteus stopped that as he was being restricted from fulfilling his Puma deal and so the rest kicked off. Giggs is by far and away the runaway winner of the one club one boot title wore Puma for one season and nothing else but Reebok.

some say functions others say product placement and contracts.

look if you are stevie g or giggsy, who dedicate yourself serious to football, they will stick to a brand they think it’ll work for them the best- at the same time happened to stay at one club for a longg time.

one article at a time! this was a good one.

p.s.
totti was briefly sponsored by nike during the late 2002 to about 2004 after euro 2004; he bloody hated it.

and in terms of german national team, it seemed to me they all wear adidas during the WC no matter what brand they are spokesman of, for the team and the result, I think they united with adidas. for example frings wore predators altho he wore total 90s before and after? please correct me if I’m wrong. cheers!

Shearer was Umbro his entire professional career. He was pretty much a NUFC player for that span. The consumate pro and one that played for the shirt.

Although he was offered $$$ to go to adi and Nike, he stuck with the brand that gave him his start as a younster at Southampton: UMBRO a true football brand.

Oliver Kahn always wore adidas boots throughout his career, Iker Casillas has always worn reebok boots, Steve Harper has always worn adidas. Christian Abbiati always asics. And for those who said Totti he wore Nike air zooms up until abot 5 seasons ago. Also was Shearer always Umbro? Cafu/Luca Toni always lotto?
