Jerseys - Game-Worn, Team-Issued, Authentic, Replica, Fake, and everything in between

[Big Mac Patty Wack]

I've got a Portis and a Taylor. It might be a little more expensive, but just go to the Redskins store or order it online from a reputable source like redskins.com or nfl.com.

I have no recall of the Redskins wearing such a jersey, but they must have, since Mitchell & Ness made this one. I remember seeing this jersey two years ago. I even called M & N and asked what was up with the white collar. They said the white collar is correct. This must have been an alternate jersey in 1994 made to mimic the original Redskins jersey of the 30s. So M & N copied it. Anyways, the 'Skins finished 3-13 in 1994 and I'm not a big Ervins fan, so I think I'll pass on this one.

Yeah, I believe they wore this white version against the Lions that season...on the highlight video from that year (though going 3-13 doesn't produce a lot of highlights) they show them wearing these jerseys during a road game.

If you bought them, did you get them back?

and if so, TK would like proof of purchase, maybe a pic or two for the brethren..

Thanks for the kind comments, guys

Hey Mark, is that throwback Coach Gibbs sweater you have an authentic?? where's that pic at, thats the best ever?

[artmonkforHOF]

thanks for the post, very informative. I will have to read the entire thing when I have more time.

Now for the million dollar question, do you know where one could get his hands on a Sean Taylor "authentic" style jersey (<-see, I read part of it for now)? I would prefer not to have to pay $300 + the customization fee for a blank one. I also say "authentic" since I dont want a jersey with silk screened numbers, name plates etc.

Chances are slim that you will find an Authentic ST Jersey for cheap.

First of all, fantastic stuff Mark. And thanks for offering all of the info.

I have never had this question answered, so hopefully you can answer it for me.

I have been trying to purchase authentics for a long time now in either size 58 or 60. Are there places that sell Redskins authentics in those sizes? My number one priority is to get a Sean Taylor. An authentic, Sean Taylor Probowl jersey in those sizes might be too much to ask for.

Don't you think?

ST Pro Bowl Authentics weren't made for the public.

Only Replicas were.

You betcha. It's around here somewhere. Maybe I should start a new thread tomorrow on Authentic sweaters?

I really have no idea. I don't know that much about retail jerseys - probably because, like you, I don't want to pay $300 for one. I remember last year, eastbay.com had a sale on an authentic Moss jersey for $89, and I believe they were legit, although they ran out before I could get one so I don't know for sure. Maybe you could wait for a sale?

Thanks. It appears eastbay. com has a Moss authentic in both those sizes and it's on sale too. Other than that, I don't know.

Yes - I haven't seen any authentic pro bowl jerseys either. They may not exist.

Good stuff as always Mark!

I unfortunately bought 2 authentic Champ Bailey jerseys right before he left! Needless to say, I don't wear them any more. What do you normally do with your jerseys of players that were traded? I heard there was a service that was able to replace the name plate from a former player to a current one. Is that true?

[Mark The Homer]

Thank-you, Sir. I'm waiting for somebody to say "Hey *******, you're full of ****! Because I know for a FACT that blah blah blah is blah so blah blah blah and blah blah blah. You should know what the **** you're talking about before you...blah blah blat (etc.)" I'm sure that will be coming eventually.

I haven't figured out what to do with my old jerseys. I only have a few authentics. Wanna buy a B. Johnson cheap?

The only way I know to fix a jersey is to swap out the nameplate, and there is nobody I know that does it. And when somebody does pop up that does it, the league shuts them down because of some kind of trademark violation. So you'll have to do it on your own. That means, go to a local place that does T shirts and sports gear and whatnot and talk to them (I'm currently having a nameplate done as we speak). You may have to supply the fabric. It's probably best if you keep words like "Redskins" and "NFL" out of the conversation.

You started an informative thread on purchasing seats at FEDEX, then got criticized for being a ticket broker/scalper. So I guess it is only a matter of time before you get criticized for cheating some of the less than honest E-Bay jersey sellers from making an "honest" living as well.

You know what they say, no good deed, goes unpunished.

I'm funny about jerseys....I got burned on my LA jersey...spent $70 then he was a Giant...So I wait until they at least sign long term before I buy....I bought a Portis authentic outside fed ex for $50 before a game....some guy had a whole box full of jerseys...I look for that dude everytime I come to a game. It's as close to the real thing as it needs to be for me. Not going to drop $250+ for a "real" authentic. I also have an"authentic" ST 70th anniversary jersey that I got on ebay for around $70. I'll pay that all day long.

[smokinskinsfan]

sweet post man, thanks...

Hey! I think I remember you, I wanted to buy a 'skins jersey from you on eBay but it was out of my price range unfortunately ;-/

good info though, I'm going to bookmark this sucka..
