Are You Sure You Have an Authentic NFL Jersey?

The NFL is a huge business. From advertising to matches, sponsorship to merchandise it seems everybody wants a piece of the action. Buying an Authentic NFL jersey is an exciting purchase for all NFL fans, but how can you be sure you are getting genuine product and not a fake bootleg?

The styling on the sleeves is always a good starting point. Authentic jerseys come with mesh sleeves, where as bootlegs have sleeves and the body made with nylon mesh. While visually the knockoffs look just like the real deal the quality just isn’t there. After a few washes your jersey will fall apart and you will be left with junk.

Something else to consider is that the real article will be accompined by a collectible or autograph as a part of the package, esepecially if your purchase it in a sports store or outlet. A good rule of thumb has got to be that if it looks too good to be true, then sadly it probably is.

Buying an authentic NFL jersey is more than just a purchase, you are showing a commitment to your team. Whilst it seems reasonable to look around for a bargain and get the best price possible on the genuine deal, if it is just the cheapest jersey out there that grabs your attention then you are likely to end up with a replica. This isn’t as symbolic as getting the real deal to show your allegiance.

One major difference is the manufacturer. As of right now Reebok has the exclusive rights to produce all authentic NFL jerseys. Whilst Made in China is normal for a lot of clothing in the US, currently Reebok do not have any clothing factories in China, so if the jersey has any Made in China tags then sadly it won’t be an authentic one either, even if they claim to be made by Reebok.

Reebok makes multiple styles of the NFL jersey worn on game day. These three styles are authentic and are fully endoresed by the NFL. Reebok identified the need to produce three different styles as not everyone is going to be able to afford 0 for a jersey. The most cost effective jersey is the Replica which retails for and has the name and number screen printed onto the jersey. The EQT Premier is the next level up and has screen printed tackle twill name and numbers embroidered on the jersey.The Authentic Jersey is the actual jersey worn by players on game day. It comes with two layers of embroidery were as the Premier comes with one layer of TackleT will.

Finally, sticking to genuine outlets seems to be the safest way to ensure that the jersey really is an authentic NFL jersey. There is nothing wrong for looking for a deal. Many retailers have Authentic Jerseys on Closeout especially when a player is traded or changes team. That being said if you see a new jersey eg Terrell Owens in Buffalo for there is no way it is authentic. No retailer can buy a jersey for under 0 so keep that in mind.
