Got back from NYC last week, was hoping to pick up some jerseys on sale etc but there were none anywhere....well 2....One players edition Steelers in Paragon Sports for $220 (less 20% off) or a Eagles one...both XXL. I was surprised there were none in any other of the stores. I checked nearly every sports stores (about 20 in all) I saw and I walked most of Manhattan during my stay. I was very disappointed. I know its the off season and the make of jerseys are changing but even still

It was the exact same in New York when I was there. Was also impossible to buy an american football.

Was trying to buy a jersey on-line the last couple of months and kept only coming up with Chinese knock-offs, or the "Pro Line" jerseys in the official NFL Shop.

Was doing a bit of digging around about the Pro Line jerseys to see what people thought of them and came across this report

The rep said that they weren’t notified yet of the price of the new Nike replicas. Also confirmed that Reebok hasn’t made new stuff this year, and they have just been selling the inventory the whole season. He said not to expect a big sale in March.

Would make sense seeing as jerseys seem to be very hard to get a the minute

Apparently Football Fanatics are very good. People on the NFL UK forum swear by them (very quick delivery and hardly ever any customs charges).

They have a lot of this seasons stuff on sale, including jerseys, hoodies, t-shirts etc:

check out Sports Authority, might be able to pick one up there but at this stage will probably be slim picking as the above stated!

Is the sizing similar to European sizes as they look absolutely huge!

No, I highly doubt it considering I checked nearly every store including Sports Authority...but you never know he might get lucky. If you want an NBA especially Jeremy Lin stuff you are in luck though....marketing dream over there

The problem with sports jerseys in the US they sell them only in season. So once you go outside the NFL season you get a very limited supply on the racks. And given this year Reebok are gone forget about trying to get a jersey. Problem with the big cities also they mainly stock their home team jerseys first anyone else is hit and miss on the big names.

For what its worth if you are going to New York and are a Jets or Giants fan you will find the last remaining jerseys in their club stores down at the stadium.

god no! i wear a large t-shirt and just about fit into an XL youth in NFL jerseys (a medium mens fits me and a big hoodie with room to spare)! The new nike jerseys will be fitted closer to soccer jerseys apparently!

Nothings changed in the logo or colour as far as I can see, in fact, the only difference is that they've taken the Reebok logo and replaced it with a Nike one. Not much of a change for the Dolphins then...

themacdaddy

The new Nike jerseys are out....Seahawks one is pretty nice...others are largely the same style

I don't know if this is alright to post, but for anyone looking NFL gear etc. I have 3 Green Bay Packers jackets that I would like to sell as they are a bit big for me now. I have them listed online but won't put any details up unless it's not allowed. Maybe a mod could confirm, or let me know if there is a classified section of the Boards for users to sell/trade with other members?

Try adverts.ie I guess.

I'm actually looking a packers jackets

I have placed an advert on Adverts.ie there now, here's the link - http://www.adverts.ie/1508041

Price is not set in stone either as the advert says!

Anyone see this on adverts
I'd imagine its a Yukijersey/Weiketrade/Jersey101 Jersey, that he's looking to make a €20 profit from or else its too big for him and he's hoping someone will bite.

Or I could be wrong and a cynical bollix, and it might be a €200 authentic Cam Newton jersey, and a great bargin :P


EDIT: Its definitly a profit thing I had a look at his other sales, a Tom Brady (Authentic with SB patch for €60, a Drew Brees one and a Michael Vick jersey.)

I just realised there was a sportswear section, so have made a new ad and deleted the old one, the link to the new one is here - http://www.adverts.ie/1508333

I saw the price on adverts. Very good value. I wish I fit large.

What size are you exactly? These are American made, and will fit an L easily, an XL easily and probably even an XXL too. They are big fitting (and in the case of the fleece) very warm jackets.

I'm medium mens. I know all the NFL gear is quality, I got some for Christmas and it was great.

That is true, but the Jersey's he's selling are the Sewn on Numbers and Names, even picking them up cheaply they cost well over €100.

If they were the Screen Printed "Replica" jersey's and not the "Authentic" i'd believe that.

For Example:

compared to:


First one is reduced to £60 in the NFL shop.
Second one is reduced to £150 in the NFL shop.

He'd have to be first very lucky to pick the Jerseys up at any price near to €50, and then pretty silly to sell them at that price, when he could get 3 times that on ebay... if they were genuine.

Its hard to tell from the pics. I'd need to see the NFL Shield to prove it... and to be honest, m not bothered :P

I got a Roddy White jersey with sewn on name and numbers from the Falcons store for about $50 last month, I fully believe you could find someone offloading jerseys at this price but you're right it is very unlikely!

I won a $260 voucher off the Atlanta Falcons twitter account, so I bought three jerseys (two replica and one premier). Delivery was $150 though!!

got stung for €40 customs as well

Going to Holland this weekend so can't make you an offer, hopefully they're still there next week.

Just had major issues with getting a jersey from the States, have to say it's tough if you're not going in person and bringing stuff home.

My bro went to the Packers v Raiders game at Lambeau back in December and picked me up a Reebok Reggie White 92 throwback jersey. When he got back home (eastern US) he sent it on from his house, no problems delivered straight to me.

Unfortunately there was a problem with some of the numbers peeling off the shirt after a couple of days, so I sent it back to him and he sent it on to the Packers Pro Shop at Lambeau, who replaced it, threw in a Superbowl XXL t-shirt and a card apologising for the hassle, which was all a very nice touch that you'd only expect from an American retailer in fairness.

They then sent it straight to me, but unfortunately via UPS, who gave me a rather surprising phone call a week later looking for €43 excise on importing clothes from outside the EU!!

After a week of phone calls between the Pro Shop, my bro and UPS explaining that the shirt was a gift in the first place and had already been sent from America to Ireland and back, they eventually released the jersey, which I'm now very happy with, albeit 2 months after I originally expected to get it.

So unless you have an address to go thru in the States, I'd tread very carefully with using any of the online Pro Shops from here.
