Wow are these new Jerseys terrible!

  • April 22, 2024


So I’ve heard about the jersey being bad but I figured I’d give them a chance and see how they are. They’re horrible! 1. they’re super thin 2. the quality of the pressed logos is so poor 3. the patch on the arm is pressed on not even a real patch 4. it’s not comfortable at all 5. The MLB log on the back being under the piping looks terrible. My fake David Wright jersey(last pic) I bought on EBay is waaaay superior to this and actually feels real lol. I’m shipping this back and Looks like I’m not buying a jersey for a looooong time until they break away from fanatics

  1. Saw a TikTok the other day of someone comparing the new fanatics jersey to a Chinese knockoff and the knockoffs actually had stitched on logos, names and numbers and looked better.

  3. Looks like they sent you last years jersey with this years customizations. The Mets script not splitting at the E is a dead giveaway though the fabric looks like the new style. What a mess.

  4. Anyone know if the City Connect jerseys are the same?  I’m not spending $170+ on this quality 

  6. I can’t stop harping on the awful decision to put the MLB logo below the collar. It’s so unsightly, no graphic designer worth their talent would do that willingly.

  7. I’m a big Nike fanboy but when it comes to them and the NBA and MLB jerseys, it’s been a major downgrade. Adidas used to have sewn-on logos and numbers for NBA jerseys, now Nike just uses the heat-applied stuff. Same thing with MLB, you at least felt like you were paying $100+ for a decent product with Majestic, now you’re getting Fanatics-produced product with Nike’s swoosh on it? What a bummer…

  8. Anyone have any good third-party sellers/dh gate sellers? Their quality is better than the official stuff

  9. Pro tip: if you’re buying jerseys in the stadium DO NOT buy them from the main shop or the first floor promenade! They have the older (better) jerseys in the 500 level store for cheaper

  10. I HATE how small and close together the lettering is on the player name. I’ll never get over how terrible it looks, whether in retail or on the field during actual games.

  11. Everyone has been saying they are really bad and yet OP still bought one, lol. This is why Fanatics and Nike have no need to improve their product. They’re gonna get them sold anyway.

  13. Ngl… That Dunkin sponsored free jersey from a few years back looks better quality than this!

  14. I checked them out at the team store at Citi Field before a recent game. $395 for absolute junk. Nike screwed it up. Manfred is an idiot. Fabric is super thin. Quality of the stitching was very poor. Patch on the arm looked like stuff they used to put on youth jerseys. It really is astonishing that no one inside of Nike ever stood up and told who ever ran this project that it was going to be a train wreck. Or if anyone did stand up, it is astonishing that they were ignored.

  15. Hmmm I’m due for a new jersey, still wearing my Syndergaard one around. I think I’ll have to splurge and go the Mitchell and Ness retro route.

  16. This is why DHGate has become a go to for some people buying jerseys.

    I want one of the official City Connect jerseys but I’m worried about spending that much on a trash jersey.

  17. Fanatics fuckin blows. Overpriced shit that’s actually worse than the knockoff shit.

    I primarily buy hockey jerseys, but I haven’t purchased one since the switch to Adidas and fanatics. Straight garbage

    I’ll be buying strictly from DH Gate for my son as he grows up lmao

  18. The way to send a message is to not spend money on the new jerseys. You know it’s bad when knockoff jerseys are of much higher quality than the garbage they want to sell us today. 

  20. Sometimes the issued jerseys that are available on the Mets auction site or the game-used store are less expensive than the new “authentic” jerseys. I got a used Rojas road and an issued home #21 (without a name on it!) each for less than the cost of a jersey from the mlb shop or the main store.
