Hey all, I need a little help in some soccer history. As some of you may know, I'm an actor. I'm currently working on my MFA, and as part of my thesis role, I chose to make one of my characters a football fan, and dress him as such. Well, the director loved it, BUT...the play will be set in a generic time somewhere in the 1930's-40's. IF I can find some clothing that looks like throwback soccer gear, I'm set. If not, the director will go another direction.

Thoughts on where I can find information about throwbacks like that? Ideas on where to buy it perhaps?

Could you have someone make something? There has to be a company in Phoenix that makes clothes for movies or something...

Very interesting topic though...

Eh, sounds very expensive. I probably have to foot the bill for this myself.

Hey, great site! I found another site as well, edirectory.co.uk , which is cool too. We'll see what she likes and I'll keep you updated! It helps that she's going with black and white themes ;)

I am having troubles finding something like track pants, or pants that would fit the outfit or era. I'll field suggestions on that too.

Thanks Ben! Right now I'm actually browsing for a large pair (very large) of the puffy golf-type pants. Any clues for that? I'll be trying to find similar stuff over here.
