This is not only the biggest and most important question we’re asked, it's also the one we get most often. Assuring you that the signatures on our products are genuine is our most important mission. All of our signatures are acquired during private signing sessions – we never, ever accost players at matches, outside training grounds or in airport terminals and we never, ever buy products from companies who do this. We also never buy memorabilia from the public. We shoot photos and videos of the players signing the items. We provide details of where and when each item was signed on our official Certificate of Authenticity (COA). And yet, we are constantly looking for new ways to prove that we are the real deal and we remain committed to that goal. If there are new ways for us to demonstrate our credibility, we will work hard to implement those measures. After all, authenticity means everything to us because it means everything to you.

Sorry but no. This is because we wouldn't be able to guarantee the authenticity of an item not signed during a signing session conducted either by ourselves or one of our trusted partners. This company policy safeguards our promise that every single signature sold by us is genuine.

Of course! All our signed items come with an official Certificate of Authenticity (COA). Regular products come with an Icons branded COA, authenticated by our CEO Dan Jamieson. The COA acts as your proof that the signature on the item you have is authentic. On it you’ll find any and all details that we have available to us, such as the date the item was signed; the city in which it was signed; and photographic evidence of the player signing the item. If we have it, we’ll display it. Our Icons COAs also have a uniquely-coded hologram stuck to them – this matches another hologram that we place on the product. Licensed products, such as our Official Messi Signed Merchandise and official FIFA World Cup products, come with a very similar COA. These COAs have their own branding and styles but serve their purpose in exactly the same manner as all other Icons COAs.

Because of the nature of our business we are inundated with requests for donations. Icons has an exclusive charity partner called Julia's House. Julia’s House is an award-winning Children’s Hospice in Dorset and Wiltshire that is dedicated to bringing comfort and care to families across the two counties. As part of our agreement to partner exclusively with this exceptional establishment, we are not able to provide donations, sponsorship or vouchers for other charitable causes.

**PLEASE NOTE** We are expecting this product to be deliverable in approximately the first quarter of 2026. Messi is expected to sign and dedicate shirts at one of our next contracted signing sessions with him, which we estimate to take place in early 2026.

This replica Argentina home shirt will be signed at an upcoming contracted signing session with Lionel Messi. Please be aware that due to the immensely busy schedules of our Icons, the dates of some signing sessions can be subject to change. Regardless, we endeavour to update our customers with the latest news and arrangements.

The shirt displayed in the image on this page may not match the shirt that is signed and dedicated. The image shown here is for display purposes only. For enquiries about dedication orders please reach out to alfie@icons.com who oversees the service.
