I emailed my contact from the Fire and thanks to her here you go....


if they call and place an order for an authentic jersey through me, I can have it customized and shipped to them in 1-2 days. Or they can call and place the order and pick it up at the stadium the next day (hours are 10-4). Right now I have adult home (red) authentic jerseys in S, M, L and XL. we are hoping the away ones come in soon. the timing of when we get the jerseys is completely out of our control as adidas has been very behind in getting everything to us.

For those wondering...

the authentic customized jerseys are $115 and shipping is just an additional $5. So your total would be $120.

Found this little blurb, found it interesting:

Red Bulls' jersey sales ranked fifth in 2007 behind the Galaxy, Chicago, D.C. and Houston, according to an MLS representative. (source)



I read that as the Fire are second only to LA in jersey sales. Not too shabby.

Before Beckham, we were number one in jersey sales like 2 years in a row I think.

Cool....I had figured as much, but had never really read it anywhere (or retained it).

I think we were in the top two for quite a few years, maybe since 2000. Chivas beat us their first season.

Okay folks,

For those who would like to purchase a goalie jersey you are going to have to contact this person....

eblum@chicago-fire.com

Apparently I was the first person to request one for the year. If he/she gets enough interest jerseys will be ordered for the 2009 season. I know it's not until next season but it is a start.

From what I gathered the MLS and Addias pretty much has the Fire bent over on the merch.


MLSgear.com is a total seperate thing from the Fire. The Fire have no control over what they do and do not sell.
I would suggest writing to them as well and ask why there are no goalie jerseys.
