Football Accessories: Armbands and Scarves

What football accessories can you find on Foot-Store?

This page brings together three product categories: the captain's armband, the supporter scarf, and the neck warmer. The armband identifies the captain on the pitch, the scarf supports club and national team fans during matches, and the neck warmer keeps you warm during training and in the stands. Each category includes several sizes, colours, and designs to suit your needs.

Flip-flops, studs, masks: other accessory pages

If you're looking for more everyday gear for footballers, several pages complement this one:

• Flip-flops, handy for the changing room and relaxation after effort.
• Spare studs, to adapt your shoes to the condition of the pitch.
• Protective masks, useful after a facial injury.
• Beanies and caps, to keep your head warm during outdoor training or in the stands.
• Water bottles, for hydration during matches and training.

The captain's armband, to identify the leader on the field

The captain's armband is worn on the arm during matches and serves to immediately spot the player in this role. The catalogue offers several options, with Velcro or elastic fastenings depending on the models, from brands like Kappa, Sporti, Uhlsport, Softee, adidas, or Select. Some are sold individually, while others come in packs to equip multiple captains within the same club or youth team.

The supporter scarf, to experience the matches from the stands

The scarf allows you to support your club or team during a match, but it also helps keep you warm during outdoor games. You can find scarves related to specific competitions and teams, more fashionable models designed for everyday use, as well as versions for women and children. The choice mainly depends on the design and length, depending on whether you wear it at the stadium or elsewhere.

The neck warmer, against the cold during training and matches

The neck warmer easily fits under a jacket or jersey and covers the neck and lower face during outdoor sessions in cold seasons. It comes in various materials and colours, including models Nike designed for sports activities. It's a lightweight accessory, easy to carry in a sport bag, which pairs well with a beanie or cap for winter training.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a captain's armband mandatory in football?

The football regulations require that the captain be identifiable, and the armband is the most common way to do this at the amateur level as well as in futsal. Some official competitions require a specific model provided by the organiser, while for training or club matches, a standard armband is sufficient.

How do you choose the size of a captain's armband?

Most armbands can be adjusted using Velcro or an elastic band, allowing them to fit the arm circumference for both adults and young players. It's best to check the arm size range indicated on the product page before choosing a child or adult model.

Can a supporter scarf be worn during an amateur match?

Yes, the scarf can be worn in the stands without any particular restrictions, unlike the armband which has a regulatory function on the field. It serves mainly to show your colours during a match or in daily life.

Can a neck warmer replace a beanie?

The neck warmer primarily protects the neck and lower face, while the beanie covers the head: the two complement each other rather than replacing one another during training in cold weather. Many players use both for more comprehensive protection during winter.

Where can I find scarves of clubs and national teams?

These scarves are directly included in the selection on the accessories page, alongside more fashionable models or those made for children. The options change with ongoing competitions and collections, so it's better to check the page regularly to see the available references.
