Anyone know where to get a real embroidered nameplate made? I've got a Reebok JC17 stitched jersey that I wouldn't mind converting to a Williams

i think it's more frustration just thinking about how insane NFL jerseys are price wise ...

I'd rather pay some extra $$ and get a quality looking jersey than walk around in a half assed fake. And when it comes down to it, nothing wrong with a replica jersey in my book. Those are the most comfortable ones anyway.

I've got a replica Sean Taylor that I like a lot, but I paid almost 2.5x as much for that as I did for my $26 "fake" authentic Orakpo, and that was back in 2005. This afternoon I compared it to my friend's Pennington authentic (purchased from NFL.com a few years back for about $270- he's a Jets fan). Awfully hard to tell a difference, certainly not a $244 difference.

I now officially LOL at the thought of paying nearly $300 for a jersey. Silly.

^ i've never had a problem with " chinese jerseys" Ive probably bought 10 in my time. I learned my lesson once on a $300 authentic champ Bailey jersey. I wore it maybe 3 times and he was traded. I like the replicas also but I'm not a big fan of screenprint, it washes off to quick

I hear ya. I mean, the only time I wear a jersey is during fantasy football drafts and on gamedays (and even then not always, because I have lots of cool Skins t-shirts as well). IMO it just doesn't make sense to spend that kind of money on something that gets such infrequent use. But to each his own.

I've got a fantasy draft at 9 tonight. I'm gonna take the new "fauxthentic" for it's first test drive. LOL. If it falls apart I'll come on here and let everyone know.

That said, the knockoffs on some of these sites look good enough to me. But, some of those sites sell crap like this:

Chicago Bears 23 Devin Hester White Jerseys jerseys,nfl jerseys,cheap nfl jerseys,discount nfl jerseys,mitchell ness jerseys,nhl jerseys,mlb jerseys,nba jerseys

Wow. Those are awful.

skinsfaninok · 08-30-2010, 07:46 PM

^ if you buy a jersey that looks that bad, you deserve to get that quality lol! But then again it's like $30

Maybe they're fake, but they could fool me. Certainly worth $26 a piece. For whatever negligible differences there are between these jerseys and the $300 "real" authentics, I'd say I got a heckuva deal.

cool.. mind taking some pics? I believe you I just want to see actual product and some of the up close stuff.. material, seams, etc.. like some of em I saw had diff seam lines than others.. not talking about stitch pattern, but where the actual cuts of fabric met, etc

tryfuhl · 08-30-2010, 08:26 PM

here's what I'm talking about

vs

tryfuhl · 08-30-2010, 08:27 PM

I don't remember if the authentics from a few years ago used that cut in the top.. if they did I think that it cut straight across but slightly above the V bottom of the neck, but it's clear to see that the perforated portion travels from the bottom and arcs from the armpit to the edges of the neck on the true authentic

the fake up top cuts off in a rectangular fashion well below the neck

a couple of other things that I didn't point out earlier.. there's no ^ cut on the sides.. the positioning of the stripes on the sleeves is off.. or the length.. look at the diff of length of the white after the burg/gold stripe

I'd honestly pay up to 100ish for a good fauxthentic, I just haven't found one that existed yet

tryfuhl · 08-30-2010, 08:32 PM

you can tell that at least since ST's rookie year it's used the current cut.. at least as far as the front perforated portion goes, didn't bother looking further back

I'm not advocating spending 300 on something that costs less than a 10th of that to make most likely, just saying that they're not as close as most people make them out to be

that's why I asked for pics though, want to see if they've updated them or what

Yeah I'll snap some pics at some point. I'm about to start a fantasy draft, so it's probably not gonna happen tonight.
