The 208 members of FIFA

I'd take a stab at El Salvador?

Yes, ES = El Salvador although according to this site, the current shirt uses an emblem. http://www.infofootballonline.com/national_teams/el_salvador.htm

Must be a shirt from previous years.

Yeah I've managed to find a photo now of it in use, check it out.

I've just writtena brief article about my focus on the AFC region. I've now only got 15 out of the 46 to get. Thanks to those here who have help me with that.

The remaining few are:
* Afghanistan
* Bhutan
* Cambodia
* Chinese Taipei
* Guam
* Jordan
* Macau
* Mongolia
* Palestine
* Syria
* Tajikistan
* Timor-Leste
* Turkmenistan
* Uzbekistan
* Yemen

nice update bro.. hopefully u'll manage to get every single one of it..

Amazing... you do not collect both home & away....yeah?

At the moment I'm just trying to get one from each country. I do tend to prefer the away shirt because some of them have more imaginative designs.

I've just had another update, including 8 match worn shirts from Samoa, an old Haiti shirt (I think someone on here posted a link to it), Cuba, Uzbekistan, and a few more.

In the next couple of months I shall be adding a few more very rare shirts from the Pacific Islands.

Wow nice find on the Samoa shirt/s I've got a spot for Samoa due to some of my closest friends being Samoan. Do you mind if I ask where you find them?

I got in contact with a lady from the Samoan FA. They had a few old shirts kicking about so was able to buy some. The new shirt comes out in the Summer, I think they'll be making them available.

Okay, so since my last update I've got load of new shirts. I'm now up to 160 out of the 208 I need.


Chinse-Taipei was really hard to get. Mainly because I can't read Chinese.


I managed to get eight different matchworn Smoa shirts sent straight from the Samoan FA!

I'm desperately trying to get hold of a few more Asian shirts. Mongolia, Macau, Guam and Cambodia are top of my list.

Please get in contact if you think you can help.

Check out the other shirts that I managed to get:

congratz on the project. what do u intend to do after achieving the goal? new project? props getting it in a short amount of time.

To be honest I don't see myself being able to complete this for years yet.

I have a few ideas, but I guess I'll see where this takes me.

Maybe working my way down the English league clubs?

Amazing mate...keep on going...

Hey bro, there's been a new country called South Sudan.
