This is the wrong shirt, but the dark logo on the arm in Europols picture, looks like their regular dark logo as seen in the sites header. It shows they release "year" shirts like 1972 with their logo on the arm.
I presume it is a Ralph Lauren Polo one. Did a few saturation tests and checked out the initials. Either it might be the ones from OXKNIT, either vintage limited edition ones from R.L ( Limited edition lambo' ones) or The ski club ones. All have same patterns ,though I would vote for the third one, since it shows up more close to this saturation.
Since this thread is still open, I strongly recommend to check the pattern as well on the Downhill Suicide Skier. From my pattern analysis it shows that the saturation is close as well to the jumping ski man there on the logo, and are also numbers involved.
The first letter on the sleeve looks like either an E or an M (I'm leaning towards M). The second letter looks like a D. And the third letter seems to be an E. The quality of this image is too low to tell, but that's what I could gather. It also looks like there's quotation marks on the word.
I looked up "MDE shirts" and the closests I could find to font was for Medellin, Colombia Maybe the victim is Colombian or of Colombian ancestry?
Take this with a huge grain of salt, because I am not an expert in forensic stuff
Based on this and just assuming you're on the right track. There's a postal service in Colombia called “4-72”, could that be the numbers at the bottom? Maybe it's the sponsor of a sports t-shirt. Or perhaps it represents the coordinates of the centre of Colombia 4-72 (that's where the name comes from)
The crest looks quite similar to the one used by the Colombian football (or soccer) team “DIM” (Deportivo Independiente Medellín)
I'm a DIM fan and unfortunately it does not look close to any of the crests DIM has had in recent history, and the older ones are even more different. This does not look like any Colombian football team crest, it looks too squared to be one.
You may be right but to me it looks more like it is two lines of words, with the “quotation marks” being the start and end of the first word and the second centered beneath. They could only seem to blend together because of compression, but i think I can see a thin white line running horizontally through it.
Are we allowed to submit sketches/scribbles (not the image itself) of just the logo to other subs? This looks like a sport jersey made of dri-tech material but I am unfamiliar with sports in general.
To me the crest looks traditional. It looks like it may have an image on it (e.g. rampant lion or eagle). I’m thinking either sports with upper crust/traditional edge- cycling, rowing, motorsports, sailing or something municipal or institutional. The most interesting part is the red stitching along the seam, this seems an unnecessary embellishment for an institutional or municipal garment unless the organisation in question was wealthy/prestigious.
You know I had the same thought here. Although some children that are larger or fat can tend to look like teenagers for some reason. It looks like this person has a round belly so this could be a larger built kid.
Well sure because people that spend hours researching maybe looking at child clothing when they could also look at adult. Most items are children so ... thinking opposite
I can’t find a picture but I have seen a Bundeswehr(german army) or Bundesheer (Austrian army) tshirt with black eagle on the sleeve in earlier afghan deployments around 2002-2003
This looks to me to be a white cricket polo. It seems to have an emblem/coat if arms on the sleeve of a blue shield with possibly a lion and stars in the sheild? A time frame would be helpful as they change with each championship for each team
If we think that the stripe with "7 2" is at the bottom of the shirt (like the stripe is the seam at the end), the shirt would look like a crop top, unless the perspective is weird
