Default Buying a soccer team scarf in Calgary?

Has anyone purchased one in Calgary? I've tried The Soccer Shop, Kicks, and Fisher's but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.

Or is there somewhere online to recommend? I checked eBay, but the only seller who has what I'm looking for has received a great deal of negative feedback.

Thanks everyone.

You could get a soccer-esque scarf by signing up for a fabulous flames credit card..

www.bigsoccer.com for premier league stuff..

what team?
Most soccer shops carry some, but it sounds like you're likely looking for a rare club.

I have purchased a few things from them in the past. It's the best online soccer store I have found.

I'm looking for a Croatia scarf that says Hrvatska, rather than Croatia. I have friends going down this summer, but I'm trying to prepare for Euro Cup early this year and they won't be back in time.

Some lady today told me they don't like carrying Eastern European team memorabilia .

www.prosoccer.com is where I get a lot of my stuff.

The local soccer stores here are not that great at all... they are overpriced and/or try to pass off old stuff as new.

The solution is obvious. Go to Croatia and pick one up in person. I hear it's gorgeous over there.

I can see why that is hard to find. Online is your best bet, or a Croatian cultural store of some kind.

Come out for the CP slo pitch team(s); good chance you'll be gifted with a lovely scarf! Not so much checkered red and white, more fuschia.

Get a tablecloth, write Hrvatska on it, and no one will be able to tell the difference.

There is a british shop in market mall that sells all sorts of team scarfs. Doubt they would have a Croatia one, but if your in the area might not hurt to check.
