Messi's 2006 Argentina Jersey is 43% Off Online
Lionel Messi gets to continue writing new chapters of his historic career on the international stage after Argentina defeated Egypt 3-2 in yesterday's Round of 16 match at the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
While most of the major sportswear brands did not make enough jerseys to keep up with demand, adidas spared no expense when it came to the most popular athlete on its roster. There are plenty of Messi jerseys available online. However, only one is currently available at a major discount.
Shopping Information
The 2006 Argentina adidas Reissue Home Shirt Messi #19 had a retail price of $139.99 in adult sizes, but is now marked down to $79.99 (43% off) at classicfootballshirts.com. We do not know how long this online sales event will last, but the 2006 Away option has already sold out.
As CFS highlights in its product description, this throwback jersey is from a different era. Messi had long hair and a different jersey number. Remember the moment Messi walked onto the World Cup stage for the very first time before he exits for what is likely the last time.
Design Details
This retro jersey features a regular fit with a crew neck for a classic football look. Meanwhile, the interlock fabric provides comfort and durability. The adidas branding and the Argentina crest pop off the blue-and-white striped top.
CFS does sell vintage and used items, but this product is listed as "Brand New - With Tags." Just be sure to double-check any items before adding them to your online cart to ensure you are buying a new product.
