AirMayo21 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 My dad bought my brother an "authentic" Cooley jersey off of this website for $50 for christmas. For the price, we thought hey what the hell, why not try and see what we get? well it arrived today, and took some pictures of it. I'm fairly confident in saying that its a fake, but its a decent fake imo, definately has a heavier feel than my Campbell 75th Anny Premier jersey. The only sketchy parts about it i think are the jock tag, how close the numbers are to the stripes on the sleeves and the "REDSKINS" above the numbers on the front. Any comments? EDIT: The site we ordered it from was http://www.pickjerseys.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark The Homer Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Yep, the "Redskins" doesn't look right. The numbers on the sleeves aren't supposed to touch the stripes. Glad you're happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uno Mas Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Honestly, who cares if its 'Authentic' or not? Do you like it? Thats the only important thing. Then again, Im not the Jersey type, but if you like it nothing else should matter. Beats paying $100-$200 bucks for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirMayo21 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 I mean for $50, its better than a cheapy feeling replica, with silk-screened numbers and such, but thats just my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walking Deadman Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 The numbers don't look right. The 47 on the sleeve is sewn too close to the stripes. The "Redskins" stiching is not right either. But as long as you know it's not a true "authentic style" jersey and are happy with it, who cares. and $50 seems to be around the going rate for knockoffs on ebay.

terpskins10 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 It does look sort of fake with the "Redskins" script the most telling detail. Regardless, it looks fine and I don't think anyone will really look that hard. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLF Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Man forget buying Authentics from retail stores for $200. If I pay that much for a jersey it will be one that the players wore on gameday. I'll settle for Premier jerseys till than. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirMayo21 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 The feel of the numbers on the front and back feel really good for a fake. Very sturdy feeling, better than my premier, ordered off of nflshop. And like I said, it feels heavy. And its for a 13 year old. He wont care either way.

AirMayo21 Posted November 25, 2008 Author Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hahah, I'm pleased with it, and probably will buy more from that site. Who cares if its fake? I just love reppin the BnG up here in Pats country! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the good thing, is a Skins Jersey!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the good thing, is a Skins Jersey!! No doubt in my mind its fake, but like I said earlier, I'd rather have a decent looking fake than have a cheap feeling replica jersey anyday. And anyway, its for my 13 year old brother, he'd be happy with a white t-shirt with Cooley 47 written on it with sharpie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not sunday where there are no Redskins games, Great you have a skins Family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love parading about in BnG around all these ****y and smug Patriots fans, who seem to be disappearing lately because the Pats have been slipping back into mediocracy...
