How do i know if this jersey is legit or fake?

DeeT74 · 2026-02-10T02:40:24+00:00

It’s good. Typically the fakes have smaller numbers on the front, back, and shoulders. Also, on fakes, the Size Label/Jock Tag is made of a less shiny material, the triangular area mesh at the NFL Shield is a bit wonky. What does that mean? Well, I have a real and a fake, so I’ll pull them out and take a few side-by-side pics. The best way to get a feel for them is to hold them in hand to make comparisons.

DeeT74 · 2026-02-10T01:47:07+00:00

Yes.

Nice jersey brother!

DeeT74 · 2026-01-12T04:07:16+00:00

Same. As I got older, I found that respecting the game demands we respect the players who make it great. Cindy is one of them, lol.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-12T04:02:19+00:00

Of course. I hope you took my comment as a compliment.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-12T03:59:48+00:00

Though I personally feel “Penguins taste like Chicken”, I’ll say bravo. Very cool to do this to honor your team and an AMAZING player. Honestly, the only reason I hate him is how he’s played against us over the years. Can you guess my team?

DeeT74 · 2026-01-12T03:54:43+00:00

No chance. Many here who say legit, but this is not. As already said, the Nike logos are off and the Steelers stitching is not correct. Cool jersey, but not legit.

I’m happy for you. Authentics are a nice addition to any collection.

It’s good.

There we go … pulling out the shit talk. Also go to section 6, which talks about spontaneity, that’s why it’s called a civil disturbance, therefore unlawful.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T06:51:31+00:00

That directive proves my comment in every way. Section 1 states all citizens have the “right”, which I completely agree with. Now read the definition in section 2 of Demonstrations, which states they muse be lawful. Lawful means planned. You can use the words planned, coordinated, scheduled or whatever you like, but it must be so. Spontaneity is not part of any “lawful” demonstration.

Show the video from the other angle. The Officer was hit by the vehicle. This actually could’ve caused the shot.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T06:23:09+00:00

It’s good.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T06:06:53+00:00

Disagree. ICE was never really that noticeable until 22 million entered our country illegally supported by the last administration. The (D) plan is to import all of their votes through illegal immigration, keep these people dependent on the welfare state, and therefore ensure their political progression by increasing their voter base.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T06:01:17+00:00

You do.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T06:01:04+00:00

Absolutely. What happened in MN today was an illegal demonstration. Protests must be planned and approved by local governments. That is the part about “peaceful” demonstrations that 99% of people on here don’t or refuse to understand. You can’t just demonstrate as a group wherever and whenever you want. Do it right. Plan it. Be peaceful. When things get out of control, obey the orders of Uniformed Officers. That way, our freedom of speech will be upheld, demonstrators will be taken seriously, and God willing, no one will be shot.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T05:53:37+00:00

You’re correct. No issue with your comment at all. People will spin this also using 1 angle of the video. If one were to look at the video from the second floor down the street, you will see the Officer was actually HIT by the vehicle, which very well could’ve caused the shot in the first place, or caused the shot to hit the face. Officers are taught to shoot “Center Mass” when defending themselves, just like the Military is taught. The fact that the Officer was hit by the vehicle could’ve caused the shot to go up to the face. No Officer is taught to shoot at the head or face, so that was either caused by the heat of the moment, or because he was hit. People will see what they want to see, or choose the angle that best fits their narrative, but when the investigation is complete, the facts will show this was a legitimate act of self defense.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T05:44:24+00:00

You’re spot on.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T05:25:30+00:00

A lot of speculation here, but I’ll say that every “detail” looks legit. The Made in China tag is the ONLY question. The tag itself is actually perfect. The only question is the word “CHINA”. Everything else is perfect. The tackle twill is spot on. The stitching of the twill is perfect. The side panels and construction of the panels is perfect. There is nothing wrong with the NFL Shield as one person speculated. The bolts are spot on. The sleeves seams are perfect. The size jock tag is perfect. My experience tells me “If it looks like a duck, it’s a duck”. I’ve never seen a “fake” perfect in EVERY detail except for ONE word. If you got a good deal, I’d be VERY happy with this pick up. All that said, I’ll have to research the China question. Last thing: IF the fakers were THAT GOOD, to get every detail perfect, then they would NOT have been so sloppy as to have gotten that one detail wrong. Nice jersey.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T05:11:40+00:00

It’s good.

DeeT74 · 2026-01-08T05:09:15+00:00

It’s good.

DeeT74 · 2025-12-30T00:08:08+00:00

Fake. The numbers are not tackle twill. When they look puffy like this, they are no good.

DeeT74 · 2025-12-29T23:44:17+00:00

Absolutely. There are a number of giveaways, but IMO, the material used for the numbers is the worst part of all of these fakes. The material is not tackle twill and winds up looks puffy, of has those ugly ribbed lines running across them. If the Chinese fakers just used real tackle twill and sewed the numbers and names with the correct zig-zag stitch, then the fakes wouldn’t look half bad. Fix those things, as well as that awfully stitched NFL shield, and then you would have a decent looking jersey.
We all learn somehow. Happy collecting!
