PARIS - Unbelievable run to the quarterfinals of Euro 2016, Iceland have won over the hearts of football supporters across the continent who will. Unfortunately, we can not able to buy this country's replica shirt as it has sold out.
Ehf, the official distributor, and Errea, the Italian manufacturer have been overwhelmed by the increase in demand.
According to the team's press officer Omar Smarason, orders for the Nordic nation's now-famous blue shirt have soared by almost 2000 percent.
"As a result of the emails and Facebook messages we've received, we've ran out of stock. We have sold them all," he said at the team's base in Annecy.
"The demand is 1800 percent above our predictions, which is positive on the one hand yet negative on the other, since we cannot provide shirts to all those who have requested one. We trust Errea and are sure that everyone will receive their shirt eventually," he added.
Should Iceland defeat France in their semi-final at the Stade de France on Sunday then demand could soar anew.
