Yes, that is official, BUT it is the away jersey. If he did not specify the away jersey, it's probably not what he wants.

Most Chelsea fans prefer the blue home jersey.

Not really anything under $60 is pretty cheap for it .... This stuff is way too expensive.

I don't know when you need this by, but I will be at a store this weekend that has official jerseys, etc. here in Chicago. They are usually about as cheap as possible and I get a good discount.

If you want I can see if they have the right piece and shoot you a price.

cool, i'd really appreciate that man. thx

I just looked at Ebay, they have a few home jerseys at that price as well.

The Malaysia thing makes a bit of sense - most of Adidas' production facilities are around those parts. If they are fakes - they did a great job.

my only concern is that it'll take forever for shipping...
