Classic Football Shirts, a leading online marketplace for buying and selling vintage soccer jerseys, has secured nearly $40 million in investment from The Chernin Group. This significant investment will fuel the company’s growth, including its expansion into the US market with the opening of its first store in NYC’s SoHo.
Classic Football Shirts has been a profitable business since its inception, boasting a loyal customer base and a strong social media presence. The company attributes its success to its focus on authenticity and its unique business model of buying jerseys directly from sellers and reselling them at a markup, unlike competitors who take commission on each sale.
Looking ahead, Classic Football Shirts plans to leverage the upcoming surge of soccer-related events in the US, including the World Cup 2026, to further expand its reach in the American market. The company is also exploring potential retail expansion in major US cities like Miami and LA, as well as opportunities for collaborations with teams and brands. While the company is currently focused solely on soccer jerseys, it remains open to exploring opportunities in other sports if they align with its expertise.
