So, rock that s#!t son. Do you care what people think of you? When I'm in the mood to represent the Texans I bust out my cheap David Carr jersey-shirt hybrid piece of crap. That's all I have and a foster shirt and I'm proudly wear both cheap things to a Texans game.
Thanks guys, you made me feel better. I'm not gonna lie, i thought mine was better than my friends $100 one from Academy.
stiched is good. It's a legit jersey. I would never wear a jersey though unless I was a player on the team and it was game day.
speaking of which, driving by Fannin yesterday after the game, i saw a guy rocking a 31 jersey, thought, "HELL YEA, I"m not the ONLY Shiloh Keo fan!!!", he turned around, it was a Aaron Glenn jersey....
There are other threads comparing the knockoffs to the real ones. Are you sure it's a knockoff? Best thing to do is NOT WORRY ABOUT IT and just wear it like you stole i--I mean, wear it proud and loud. Did you get one for CHEWIE, too? You know your mechanic needs one. Don't know if SERIOUS.
I wouldn't say it's a horrible fake. Nicely made, but you're going to see differences, if you're standing next to a real one. I dont think that jersey is the Elite version. It's a knockoff of the Game version, which is the replica that retails for $100. Check out the collar. too thin. Also, the Elite version has different fabric, like in square patches, this one doesn't. Also, I believe the Elite version's sizing is in numbers, while the cheaper Game version is in S/M/L, as is this one. Also, the Game Version is not stitched for sure, not sure about the others, but i dont think they are either.
Seriously, why would you consider not wearing it out?? Who the hell cares?? You're repping your team the way you want.
Thats actually a decent looking fake. There are some that don't even have the correct number font, or the numbers are way too big or too small.
this is kind of like that episode when samantha takes carrie to the hood so they can buy knockout fendi bags, then felt guilty about wearing one. totally like that. =/
It's fake but I'm sure you got to save some money from not buying the real thing! You can tell its fake because of the collar and the lack of Nike's "sweat patch" on the abdomen you can cleary see the sweat patch under the number and its discoloration when a player sweats...not sure of the reasoning behind this...
A 4-0 start with you wearing that very jersey makes it authentic in my book. Keep wearing it. At least for the next 16 games
Nah, this is a knockoff of the replica, not the authentic. The real replica doesn't have a sweat patch. It's actually the same as this one, even with a thinner neck. The only difference i see is the shade of red on the numbers and the stitched name. "Game" version, which oddly enough, isn't the game jersey, but the replica. no sweatpatch. Also, like i mentioned earlier, notice the difference in sizing (number vs letter): "Elite" version, which is basically what the players wear, with sweatpatch and thicker neckline: So, he basically saved $40, Game version retails for $100.
its a knockoff the the nike game jersey, not the nike elite jersey.. only the elite jerseys have the thick collars/firewire and sweat patches..
Here's a fake of the Elite version, for comparison: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NWT-NlKE-Ar...3?pt=US_Football_Fan_Shop&hash=item2575e65a31 You'll also notice the Game version (yours) has more tapered sleeves. I guess for a better fit, since most casual fans will buy this one and probably care more about appearance.
I would sell your fake to one of these guys and go buy a screen printed jersey and feel better about yourself.
I would wear your 'fake' proudly, just like this dude wore his FDSTER jersey to the Texans game yesterday. :grin: But seriously bro, your jersey doesn't look bad.
Yes its fake but at least you are reppin ... if it really matters that much to you just buy it off nflshop or Houston Texans store next time... but as you can see most ppl dont care whether its real or fake...
