He told me it's legit, and his authentic Hester and Urlacher jerseys are the real deal. So he claims anyway. But I trust him. Besides, had I ordered those jerseys from the team's website, it would have cost around $900. Even if they aren't perfect, it was worth it for that price break.

lol somehow I missed this Zorn-esque moment

You can try a place that makes team uniforms like Teamwork Athletic or Youth Sports Market or A2Z Sports Apparel Team Uniforms Sporting Goods Equipment or All Sports Jerseys - Custom Sports Jerseys for all sports including Hockey, Baseball, Basketball, Athletic Knit Jerseys, and Volleyball Jerseys.


If they don't have it available, you could probably purchase some tackle twill (shiny jersey material) and see if a local printing/uniform place can do the lettering. If it's screen-printed, it will be much easier to find someone to do it locally.

Yeah, it's a stitched nameplate, so screening is going to look ass (IMO). I just hoped someone had a good connection already for doing this sort of thing. Apparently the NFL cracked down on it a while back as far as their "official" suppliers go, so it's sort of a "ask a vendor you have a good relationship with if they can go look in the back" kind of a thing.

I guess the NFL didn't like fans who paid hundreds of dollars for authentic jerseys spending another $20 to update them, when they could be making another couple hundred bucks to sell them an entirely new jersey :P

Find whoever designs/makes sportswear in your area. Typically you can get an answer from HS's or colleges on who they use.

Ooops!! Hahaha. Chalk that up to a few glasses of wine I guess. That's funny. Freudian slip maybe?

[tryfuhl]

Even the wine will lead you in the right direction!

One of my friends work in China for 5 years. He said the Chinese embroidery and knit is perfect. And the raw material is rather cheap. So the export commodities are very cheap.
So he told me to consider the China Jersey.

Some of the guys here at work put an order in and needed more people to get free shipping, so I chipped in. Used Btradejersey. The quality on an away Orakpo was pretty good. It's one I can wear without worrying about spilling a beer/food but it's a good knock off. Fonts are right, stitching is good, colors are right on...

However, I had a very bad experience with another order I placed from http://www.111today.com/. It was hilariously bad. The NFL Equipment Shield read "NFL Equip," the size was way off, the nameplate was crooked and the color wasn't right, it was a shade in between Redskins burgundy and Chiefs red. As soon as I opened the package, I laughed and gave it to my wife. Asked her to see if she could tailor it down for our dog.

Anyone have any current sites they have used for cheap jerseys? A lot of th older ones that I knew have been shut down.
