Why I Started Secondhalf
"It started with a ball, a dream, and a shirt I never wanted to take off.
From the moment this photo was taken, football wasn’t just a game, it was part of who I was. The colours, the crests, the feeling of pulling on a kit… it all meant something. And it still does.
I started Secondhalf to honour that feeling. To celebrate the history behind football shirts, and to give them a second life, just like the memories they hold.
Because once football is in your blood, it never leaves.
And every shirt deserves its second half."
