OT: Buying Pats jerseys
 

Hey all, my wife ordered me a Chandler Jones jersey for Xmas from a site called "www.officialnewenglandpatriotsproshop.com" which actually isn't the proshop, that is "http://proshop.patriots.com/" and it was late arriving for Christmas. Now she was starting to get worried that it was a scam, but it eventually did come and when it did, boy was I happy. She had ordered the $90 version, so even though the description said "embroidered" name and number I assumed that that wasn't true and it would have the iron on type lettering. It didn't, it has the sewn on name, numbers pats insignia everything, and it had the "official NFLPA" tags and labels so it isn't actually a knock-off.

I just thought I'd pass that along in case anyone is shopping for a jersey.

Mods if you feel the need to kill this thread I wouldn't be offended. :D

There are dozens of jersey sites in which you can get full on field replicas for 35 bucks shipped

are they any good, though? good quality?

Mine is perfect. There are some loose threads but nothing I haven't seen on real ones. Sizing is spot on too. The stitched on numbers and letters are a little stiffer than the real ones, but nothing that truly detracts.

I've worn mine to games and the bar and not only is it better than everyone else's by default (being stitch on and heavier than the iron on ones) but when I do see a real on field it looks no different.

Get the reebok ones though - I don't think the Nike ones have been properly copied yet.

it's one of the fake Chinese sites..there are tons out there and i can get jerseys for $35 bucks with all stitched.

Chinese knock-offs. Huge pet peeve of mine. And the quality is significantly worse than the officially licensed product.

Some people don't care, I know, but it's something that irks me.

This.

If you have ANY questions about a jersey do a google search, you'll be able to find every single last detail that proves if it's authentic or not. Some jerseys will pass every test except that last one, be careful.

If you found an authentic for under $90, chances are it's fake. The NFL always does an exclusive deal with whatever company at the time, meaning right now Nike is the only one that can produce a genuine authentic jersey.

$250 for a jersey irks me.

Glad I got the $100 day after one, still looks like one.
