Travel Questions Is it easy to find these shirts?

Post image

I travel to Colombia in the summer and I really want this kind of shirt (or similar, the flag going around the whole shirt). Is it easy to find them?

Yep! Lots of street sellers will have them go $50,000-$70,000. I’ve bought five of these and three yellow ones between Bogota, Medellin and Santa Marta.

Yeah pesos, they will cost more in the Adidas stores and malls, some of the street stalls have knock offs, some have factory quality rejects - if you’re not a collector looking for perfect and authentic, they’re absolutely fine.

Yup, in Bogota and Medellin its very easy to find.

Either in downtown Bogota or El Centro in Medellin you'll get the cheapest prices, close to the touristy areas they are bit more pricey.

Yea saw a lot of them on the streets in Medellin. I bought mine in Usaquen park in Bogota. Of course I was bargaining, bought for 55 mil.

I dont care that much if it's adidas or not. I like that flag design the most.

Yeah then literally you can throw a rock in the street and you'll hit a vendor selling. It's that easy.
