I have tried one on and like the fit much better than my Reebok Portis jersey. The sleeves are not as long, which is a good thing. Also, it seems to be more form-fitting, almost like it's tailored compared to the Reebok jerseys where the torso section is shapes like a barrel.
Now, my chest is bigger than my stomach/lower torso, so I can't speak to the fit for those who are more "round" but if you're in shape it will fit nice. I like my shirts to have a tighter fit.

The pats on one's own back and the skipping stairs has really paid off. Have you thought of a doing a work out video?

Ha, I'm just trying to give the guy an accurate reply. I know there's a lot of beer drinkers and major tailgaters on here. I've heard people complain about the fit of Nike jerseys but I've found them to be an upgrade. It's all about your build.
I had someone think I was black last week on the WP. If someone also thought I was 350 pounds and saying the jerseys fir great, they wouldn't want one, would they?
It's all about perspective.
For jersey-fitting purposes, I look more like Wes Welker than BJ Raji. :D
Short, very white dude.
The new jerseys are a much nicer fit. I always felt like I was swimming in the old reebok ones.
Good example here

I know I originally posted that on here but that photo does bug me a little. The guy either gained a lot of weight in a year or he did a little stretching on that Reebok half of the image. Look at his head.
He didn't have to. Nike jerseys DO fit a lot better than the Reebok and everything in his captions is true.

Just found out we get a corporate discount at nflshop so I want to get a new jersey. I guess I'll do that now then, thanks for the info.

For those that have already bought the jersey, how is the fit? I keep reading that it's tight but I was never a fan of the dress like fit of the reeboks. Are these more akin to a soccer jersey? Does the version you buy (game, elite, etc) make a difference?the fit is good, less baggy-more fitted. i like it a lot better than reebok. get to a store and try one on. any mall should have them, dicks, sports authority, etc.

That's my issue... even a 2x bunches when I lift my arms and is retarded big in the torso and sleeves
I prefer a solid fit, not too loose myself... I'm cool with a very close shoulder and chest cut.. but the numbers just pull the rest of the jersey with it.. even on the non-stitched they ride. It is too stiff of a material to have that close of a cut and be able to be active in. I will have to try to get a pic
These seem to work for lean but not built guys
