Thailand factory workers make a measly £1 an hour making England's Qatar World Cup shirts selling for £115. In 2008, an adult-sized shirt cost £40 but now retails at around £56 in today’s prices, the Mirror reports.
“Stadium” shirts have a starting price just under £75, meaning while “match” shirts close to the ones the players wear cost £40 more. Shirts for children cost £59.95, while all the tops can include the name and number of the player for an extra £15.
Some parents took their frustrations extortionate prices online which includes the Lionesses. Mike Rutt said: “I was going to get eldest the new England Lionesses shirt for the Euros – £60 for a kids' football shirt. Daylight robbery.” Ray Ellis added: “I truly cannot believe people pay this ridiculously extortionate price for the latest England football shirt. Anybody buying one, especially in these difficult financial times, must have more money than sense.”
