I saw in a picture that Nike was going to make those high-school looking jackets for different NFL teams - with the wool body and leather arms and logo on the chest - I need to figure out which teams version is nicest because my dad wants a coat like that but doesn't even watch football - he wants the Rangers one from the last winter Hockey Classic but they're like $700 and he doesn't even like the Rangers he just likes the coat! I hope I can get one in time for fathers day!

Mitchell & Ness have those varsity jackets but with the obvious older logos. Last I checked they were around 300$

We got the replica jerseys in at work today, so of course I tried one on. The material is much heavier than the mesh the Reebok ones used to have, and without the sheen those had as well, the look isn't as nice. On top of that, they cut the shoulders like they're a women's baby tee, so if you try to raise your arms above rib level, the entire jersey pulls up with it and the bottom of your jersey ends up around your chest level. If they're gonna keep with this cut for the next 5 years, then I guess I won't be buying a new jersey over that time.

It's just nike's way for motivating us all to not be so fat :smith:

But honestly do the sleeves look like how P Rivers from the bolts wears his wear they kinda flare out, or the opposite of that?

Edit: looks like Nike put a FAQ up on the jersey differences:
http://help-us.nike.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22889/~/what%27s-the-difference-between-the-game,-limited-and-elite-nfl-jerseys%3F

So the only difference for the Cowboys* mid range is:
Zoned stretch fabric for a close fit
Water repelling fabric to stay lightweight all day

*They opted out for the flywire, I wanted the novelty of it :smith:

So yeah think I'm getting A Limited (hopefully Lee) and then get the Elite if they win A playoff game :toxx:

Jerseys are up for preorder now. Cowboys don't have Sean Lee, and for some reason they have DeMarco Murray Gameday but not Elite.

Also seeing the team color jerseys, the stars on the sleeves are different now, judging by the pictures. The color of the inside of the star is closer to the shade of blue on the white jerseys, versus the old jerseys it was the same color as the rest of the jersey which looks better to me.

Yeah that blue star on the sleeves looks loving terrible. Thanks Cowboys for having to mismatch the jerseys for no reasons even more. Guess I'll get a Blue Witten or maybe an Austin? P Sure I'm going to wait till June and get the Limited, going tab/tab for the Gameday/Elite really shows the differences and if it's cheaper to get midrange and only difference is water wicking, I think I'm sold. I couldn't tell what people were talking about when they said it looked like a shirt, but Tab/Tab the two and it's like looking at a Jersey and a longer Dri Fit shirt with screen pritned smaller numbers.

I remember someone asked about shoes before, looks like there's two types, "NFL Dunk" (dunk? ) high and low, not sure how to get to them other than going to the team pages first. They're also customizable to an extent if you don't like the given color layouts, stuck with the colors they give though.

That was me, Thanks man. Goin through them now. It's "Dunk" because that's the base Nike Sneaker they're using." I have some all blacks, they're pretty comfy.

Why wouldn't you just spend the extra 30 bucks on a Nike?

Nike's aren't 83$. 53$ was the total sorry If I posted that stupidly. But I'm getting the mid tier jersey regardless this summer. This is just to see how these are like I said; either I get a Reebok and it's whatever, a Nike GameDay tshirt style jersey and it's a bit cheaper than the nike/dallascowboys stores, or I actually get the "elite" knockoff without the water repellant or something. So 53$ isn't bad for A trial and error. Plus returns are free.

Hey here is some jersey news!!! My dad and I ordered some Seahawks replica jerseys in 31 and 29 so we can basically make up 1/2 of the Seahawks DB corps!! What a great story. Anybody else have a football dad? That's always a good derail.

Yup, he saw me ordering my Austin jersey and simply says " Better not be A ROMO jersey. I would've been a better pick than that joke. Too bad I went to go serve our country."

To be fair he did play HS football in Texas and was all star QB and all that cliche poo poo. He has his helmet still, and still likes to tell stories about those days.

I just realized my dad is Al Bundy and Hank Hill rolled into one.

Hmm, how did they say they were going to refund it? I ordered four jerseys a few months back and they emailed me to say that three of them were out of stock (naturally they don't tell you this until you've already paid them) and would I like to switch those three for a different set? When I said I'd rather have my money back they offered to refund via paypal but I asked them to refund directly to my credit card if possible. Had my refund in three or four days. I've ordered from those guys a few times and I really haven't had any problem with the quality of the merchandise or refunds. Mostly I'm just mad because they never ever have any Angerer jerseys yet they taunt me by listing them on their site

Yeah it was paypal, I'll email em back to send it to my card

The Dallas Cowboys Pro Shops have the gameday and Elite jerseys, they're actually pretty slick. But yeah, the gameday ones seem to be effectively pointless once the middle tier comes out.

I talked to the person working, she said they should be getting other players like Murray and Lee in July, for now they have Witten, Romo, Austin, Bryant, and Ware.

Did they say the Lee/Murray jerseys are going to be in shop only or online as well? I need A Lee jersey for the cowboys/chargers preseason game at least drat't

Is there a consensus site I should be checking out for cheap jerseys? My buddy was looking at https://www.cheapjerseyswin.net but that looked beyond lovely.

whatjersey.com was recommended earlier in this thread. Any others?

Tarajersey updated their site. So they actually have the Elite (and limited for some reason.) They also have the full roster custom jerseys now, Finally I can get my Jesse Holley reality tv star jersey! Or maybe an Acosta jersey, but I bet when the mailman delivers it, the package will be thrown over my house.

Still can't decide between Carr, Mo, Lee and Murray though :argh:

So I just found a slick Black LaMichael James Ducks jersey in Goodwill for 4 bucks. Anybody else ever find stuff in thrift stores? I check the two near me regularly, and I finally struck something worth buying. I saw a Roethlisberger one once, and a Jags garrard jersey, neither were worth the purchase.

The store Ross out here in San Diego, ALWAYS has browns shirts and jerseys. It's the weirdest drat thing. Tons of charger hats, shirts, acessories etc, then Browns Jerseys and polos. I did see A DeMarcus Ware jersey in kids xl, I almost got it for my girlfriend but she wants an emmitt smith jersey, because he won dancing with the stars :negative:

This is the only acceptable thing I can come up with for buying a pair of football pants. So yeah, if you're doing this then fine, go for it.

Yeah thats my intention. At my store we have a rolled up floor mat that's a football field with all the team logos, so I plan on trying to take that. I try and get as much football inflates/posters/standees from the vendors as possible, so hopefully when I get my new apartment, we'll have a gnarly living sports room.
