Shirt condition
Perfect condition
I couldn't find a single flaw. The white is clean, with no greying at the collar or underarms, and the brushstroke black stripes stay sharp from top to bottom. The gold Jeep sponsor and adidas logo are complete, with no cracking, and the yellow side piping is intact. The RONALDO 7 printing lies perfectly flat.

Workshop note — EI9894 is the adidas reference for the 2020-2021 home shirt in supporter version, and the 05/20 date matches the shirt's summer 2020 release. On this model I look at the stripe edges: they are frayed on purpose, as if painted with a brush, not straight. The printing and both badges were applied in my workshop, so I never use them as proof.
The Pirlo season and Ronaldo's scoring title
In summer 2020, Juventus handed the dugout to Andrea Pirlo, who had never coached at professional level. The club was coming off nine Italian titles in a row, and this brushstroke-striped shirt opened the season of the hoped-for tenth.
29 Serie A goals. Cristiano Ronaldo finished as the league's top scorer, becoming the first player to top the scoring charts in England, Spain and Italy.
19 May 2021, Reggio Emilia. Juventus beat Atalanta 2-1 in the Coppa Italia final, having already won the Supercoppa against Napoli in January.
In the league the streak ended: Inter took the title and Juve finished fourth. It would be Ronaldo's last full season in Turin.
Frequently asked questions
Why are the stripes irregular?
That is the design adidas chose for this season: black stripes drawn like brushstrokes, with frayed edges. It is neither a printing fault nor wear.
Are the printing and badges original?
The RONALDO 7 printing and the Champions League and Respect badges were applied in my workshop. I never count them as proof of authenticity: that rests on the shirt alone.
How can I check the shirt is authentic?
Look at the small inner tag: the code EI9894 and the date 05/20 must be on it. You can type EI9894 into a search engine to check the model yourself.
How does this S fit?
True to size: 49 cm pit to pit and 71 cm long. If you wear S on the high street, it will fit; if you are between sizes, compare with a shirt of your own.
