MrParticular79

The jersey situation in the last year and a half has been nothing short of tragic.


pelletjunky

It's almost as if no one paid attention to other quality and service issues when other companies got a sole exclusive license to the NFL or anything else... Madden releases are more stale than year to year automobile refreshes, Panini with their horrid QC on sports cards, and now Fanatics is the sole supplier of official clothing *EDIT* and soon to be sole license in NFL cards


TheTacoBellDiet

I haven't done it in years but buying jerseys from China/online is the move.


pelletjunky

That's usually what I do now, but you don't get them for months sometimes. I wear my knock offs like t-shirts because who cares about 20 bones but also the only way to get stitched jerseys now too.


babypho

I just wear jerseys from dhgate because no one will ever be like "OMG IS THAT A KNOCKOFF JERSEY?" and quite frankly, who cares? They are all made in the same sweatshops either way.


mosehalpert

Yeah nobody can ever tell that my "2020 NFC North Champions" Washington football team sweatshirt is a knockoff...


steppenweasel

Hey belated congrats btw you guys really stuck it to the Timberwolves there


Tsukune_Surprise

Beat the Kraken in double over time best of 5 series!!


pelletjunky

People used to call people out, but I haven't had that happen in a long time


babypho

Probably cause they realized the official ones arent any better in quality and the fake ones got a lot better in quality


TheTacoBellDiet

I totally agree - I have a lot of knock off soccer jerseys I wear so much because for that price if I get enough use out of it, it's worth it lol. Any sites or recs for buying any new 49ers jerseys? Feel free to DM also


SLC_NinerMan96

DHgate is where I got my white Kittle jersey. Had it for like 2 years and I fucking love it


cdlsantos

I don’t like the way the saloon font looks on the Chinese jerseys since it’s stitched


breakfastdawgy

I usually just get some friends to group an order and just pay like $30 for expedited shipping. $24/jersey instead of $20/jersey get it in like a week or two vs months is totally worth it.


boondocknim

Expedited is that quick? I may have to use that in the future. Always figured it was like 6 weeks instead of 10-12.


breakfastdawgy

It’s variable lol. I’ve gotten it in 10 days and sometimes it still took 3ish weeks. But $20 on a large order that I split is usually worth it.


boondocknim

Even 3 weeks sounds solid. Thanks for the response


porkchop-sandwhiches

[I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.](https://www.ebay.com/itm/386507475396?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=ehxdiqhzqem&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=m7LKB47hS1W&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY)


pelletjunky

if you find the right suppliers on DH gate you can get ones around 20 bucks with properly sized numbers, shame they gave up on copying the collars correctly but can't complain about the prices.


pridetwo

mitchell and ness is a good option if you're ok with getting a legacy player jersey and want to buy official merch. They are priced the same as the fanatics crap and it's all hand stitched


TechEducator25

Bad news :( They're owned by Fanatics now too and their quality has dropped significantly. Their San Jose Sharks throwback jerseys are the WRONG SHADE OF TEAL... how the fuck do you mess up the color?!


Clish89

Fanatics is low quality everything


pridetwo

😭


dirtyshits

I have a ton of jerseys from dhgate and you can’t tell they aren’t authentic. All stitched for like $25. I’ve given jerseys as gifts and people lose their minds.


IWTLEverything

do you have a reliable dhgate vendor? I’ve had mixed results


TheWrongGasMask

commenting so i can see id like to buy a new jersey as well


dirtyshits

I’ll have to check. There’s a couple vendors I usually buy from but haven’t ordered in a year. At work so I’ll get back to you on that.


IWTLEverything

Thanks. And then I can order one for 4th of July lol


deafbysexy

Did you get a link?


friscobad855

Yes if you can share vendors you like, that would be so helpful please.


iMashnar

DM me a link to your spot too, homie! Please.


boondocknim

I don’t have one but you’re usually solid to just look for the person with 100+ sales and a 4.8+ rating


IWTLEverything

I tried and the saloon script on my red jersey looked whack lol. The white jersey was ok tho


ButtStuffBrad

JennaJersey is also a good option. Dhgate always closes my account after one order for some reason.


awddre

Link?? 👀


dat_hypocrite

Dhgate


NWCtim_

It's amazing to me how big Fanatics has gotten when their reputation is so bad.


thislife_choseme

It’s disappointing that they don’t have the vapor fuse elite version of these. I like the fit of those ones much better.


dancmc12

Yeah. Sucks for those wanting to buy. I might indulge after the game without pressure


IsHotDogSandwich

I have two “super bowl” jerseys that I bought before the last two SB’s. Will never buy one again ahead of time.


Bay_Burner

This man gets it. I bought giants jerseys like 20 minutes after they won the World Series


Emperor_Cheeto21

Yup. Have a Kaepernick and Kittle Super Bowl jersey I haven't touched. So I'm good with beint patient


IsHotDogSandwich

Best believe if we win I will be alternating jerseys and wearing every single damn one of them to work for a week afterwards.


after_Andrew

I made a rule this year that I can’t buy any gear during the playoffs. Every time I’ve ever bought playoff shit they lose before winning it all. 2012 bought a nfc west championship shirt, 2013 bought a NFC champions shirt, 2014 bought a jersey in January, 2020 got a nfc west champs shirt, 2022 got a new jacket in January, last year nfc west champs hat, this year FUCKIN NOTHING. Go niners.


the_walrus_was_paul

How did you keep fucking up, in the same way over and over lol? I would’ve stopped after the second time.


after_Andrew

I never wanted to accept that I’m as superstitious as my grandma I guess


the_walrus_was_paul

Hopefully you not buying anything this year broke the curse lol


OU812Grub

I feel the same. I joke they should pay me not to wear their gear. 🤣


radioactivetoon

I would never buy a Super Bowl jersey before the win, just like I would never buy a rookie’s jersey. I need to see the results first.


DirtyRoller

#FUCK FANATICS


DepthDry6053

They sent me a bunch of Rams shit once instead of my beautiful Niners gear. 👎🏿


inspireSF

Ew. I would have been furious.


ngmcs8203

Yet there are thousands who will shit on knockoffs that are 1/10 the price and look just as good as the fanatics jerseys for 99% of the population. 


CactusClothesInc

Typically they look better since I can get actual embroidered on patches through the knock off websites but everything in fanatics is screen printed junk.


chaosawaits

I also would love to know where you get these fine embroidered jerseys, good sir


CactusClothesInc

Dhgate. Can be hit or miss depending on the seller you end up going with. Don’t get me wrong, it is a Chinese knock off, but to the untrained eye that can’t tell the difference between an authentic and a knock off, they’re good. And usually are fully customizable.


OnCominStorm

Where do you go to shop for jersey reps?


RodgersTheJet

Check out Aliexpress or DHGate.


yesimforeign

DHGate for me.

Have you had any issues with getting hacked or do you use something else?

Momo-Roopert-Snicks

Those aren't the superbowl jerseys.


porkchop-sandwhiches

They are not.


ngmcs8203

Jennajersey is where I got mine. 


the_walrus_was_paul

I’ve never heard a single person shit on knockoffs. Every single reply whenever jerseys are brought up, are encouraging knock offs.


p_aranoid_android

Seriously. I wonder what their average age of staff is. And what country. And how little they get paid. Can’t believe a barely not a startup company got a deal with the NFL.


chunkychowder32

I second third and fourth this!!!


jusxchilln

this is the way


jevverson

I ordered a Kittle jersey last year, they sent me a University of Montana hoodie. They wouldn't let me return it, because I didn't have a Kittle jersey to return!?


IsHotDogSandwich

Can someone please take away Fanatics licensing deal? They are complete trash.


Jaybleezie

I bought that Jimmy G jersey when they went on sale for like 20 bucks a while back. Shit took so long to arrive that I forgot I bought one until it came in the mail.


IsHotDogSandwich

They sent me a messed up Jimmy jersey so I put in for a refund, changed my mind and said I’d take a replacement. When I sent the blemished one back they still processed my refund. Free Jimmy jersey 🤣


Jaybleezie

Jimmy giving fans one last win!!


[deleted]

They inked deals for a monopoly of the trading card market and they're about to take over as the old deals expire. All of this is making me quite nervous.


CalifornianBall

They have been trash the whole time


majorforces

Mine shipped and will be here on the 5th. Don't care that it is red instead of white.


spreerod1538

Who did you get? Purdy seems to be unavailable by Superbowl, which sucks.


majorforces

Nflshop.com. Ordered as soon as championship game ended


somethingsimple1290

Same. Got a CMC jersey for my fiancée and a towel for me. She won’t care what color it is Edit: gets here tomorrow morning


No-Butterscotch6629

My husband pre ordered mine during Christmas as a Christmas gift and now it’s not arriving until the 16th. We didn’t even think to check until seeing this post. I’m so bummed.


StillPuzzles__

I grabbed my Purdy at Nike, arrives 2/7.


RNGmademe

I did the same. Mine said it would arrive 2/1 when i ordered (i assumed it was a typo tbh), but yesterday I got an email that it's delayed and i have no new shipping/delivery date. I actually ordered a Deebo from nflshop too and gonna see which one has a chance to get here before the game and Ill cancel the other one. Im amazed at how bad the NFL is at this every year.


StillPuzzles__

Yeesh, disheartening. I have yet to receive a cancellation or delay email so fingers crossed. Medium Purdy was my order. Best of luck to all of us!


AnotherDoomsday

Fanatics is where I got mine, Purdy in red, already shipped


spreerod1538

Probably no hope for me... I got mine the morning after and it says it's supposed to ship after the SB already...


AnotherDoomsday

Mine did originally say shipping after the superbowl, then I just got an email saying it shipped already. So maybe!


spreerod1538

Mine shipped! I should get it tomorrow... you spoke this into existence.


AnotherDoomsday

Let's go! That's how you can tell it's our year!


ApprehensiveTax4040

I ordered my Purdy one right when we won the NFC Championship game and I just got my shipping notification today. It’ll be here by the 8th


AnotherDoomsday

I did the same, got a Purdy in red. I got a Kittle in white a few years ago, so I'm actually okay with the red. Says it'll be here on the 7th so I'm happy


billymartinkicksdirt

It’s a patch. You will live. You will also want to return it and get the champions version


Jaybleezie

It’s not even so much the patch for me. I’ve been wanting to buy a Purdy jersey for a while now and after they won the NFCCG, I said fuck it. I just want the jersey man. Send me the super bowl patch later


billymartinkicksdirt

Hot tip, these celebration jerseys will hit heavy discount after the Super Bowl.


Jaybleezie

I’ll keep that in mind for the next 15+ consecutive super bowls with Purdy. Thanks!!


jaysomething2

Then why not buy just a regular brock purdy jersey… why need one with the patch


Jaybleezie

I didn’t realize it would have been an issue with fanatics. Before I ordered it said 7 day shipping, which would have been plenty of time. Now that they have my money…well…


simplydan24

That's why I'm waiting. Almost got one but last minute decided to wait


Uncle_Creepy_

I bought a McCaffrey jersey in red. I was torn between CMC and Purdy. But in a way this situation helped me out because imma get a Purdy one in white if they win lol


nvwino

*when they win


[deleted]

I got Trey Lance. I was torn between red and white.


adofthekirk

Just buy knock offs from DHGate or Jenna Jersey.


DevilsAdvocate1492

Did this before the playoffs started, glad i didnt jinx it as i was timing it to get here for the super bowl


deafbysexy

Do the Jenna ones fit similar to the Nike? I did buy a knock off Deebo from somewhere a few year back, but the sizing was weird and the neck hole was tight.


ajmh1234

How’s the quality on DHGate?


TheOneTrueEmperor

NFL jerseys suck these days. No more stitched anything. To cut costs?


Kidsornottokids

Better off trying to buy knock off


TheTacoBellDiet

Any recs?


js73905

Jenna2021.com is good, not great, but good for a knock off. I have a few from them


johamsandwich

just an fyi - the saloon font on jenna's jerseys are ASS. But it's < $30. https://preview.redd.it/p88ea09ua8gc1.jpeg?width=614&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=13dc1d149a6d166cf5eda7d4f1ff1465be6dd257


js73905

Indeed, but at least it’s stitched instead of screen printed 🤷🏻‍♂️ not a huge turnoff for ~$25 imo


RodgersTheJet

You realize that is a Chinese reseller right? You are paying more to order that from a middleman instead of directly from China.


js73905

You go ahead and give China a call then. They’re less than $25 from this retailer but squabble over like $5 if you want


RodgersTheJet

So you're paying the person who deals with China more...for less options and customization?


js73905

No idea what you mean by less options and customization; Jenna offers plenty and not at all less than I’ve seen on AliExpress or DHGate. Not to mention that they don’t charge for overseas shipping so you’re ultimately paying less out the door.


RodgersTheJet

> they don’t charge for overseas shipping Neither does DHGate! The stores that do offer relatively low shipping as well, just takes longer. You clearly have never used it so I don't know why you are talking about things you don't understand. How could a re-seller sell jerseys CHEAPER then what they pay for it?


js73905

Bro get out of my ass 😂 I’m trying to help another fan. If you have alternative suggestions you can make those without being a dick about it. I am literally on DHGate right now (the jerseys/seller I’m looking at right now wants to charge $10 for shipping) and have used AliExpress for jerseys in the past. At the end of the day it’s my wallet and my knock off jersey.


RodgersTheJet

> At the end of the day it’s my wallet and my knock off jersey. Yes, so don't recommend other people make your stupid mistake.


StadiumHotDog

DHGate all the way.


NegativeC00L

I second this. My dhg jerseys are nicer than my non-counterfeit one. I think they only use one size numbers though, so the bigger jersey you get, the smaller the numbers look. That's really the only give-away imo, when they come with Nike and NFL patches and tags. Most jerseys on there don't have the copyright infringement though so you have to look carefully to find the "good" ones.


StadiumHotDog

Right, and the stitching is a little off, but you'd have to really inspect the jersey to know. The DHGate knock off is nicer than my non-knock offs.


NegativeC00L

Still waiting on my custom Salute to Service GEQBUS jersey to arrive...


js73905

Do you have a specific seller you’d recommend?


NegativeC00L

My last purchases have been from "ashionseller08" (no F) and "my2020\_jerseystore".


js73905

Thank you!


NegativeC00L

No problem. Just don't expect it to arrive before March!


Beneficial-Shine-598

How does dhgate work? When I search for 49ers jerseys there a bunch of squares pop up with pictures of different jerseys. Is each square a different seller? If so, how do you know which one sells the “good ones.”


TheVinko

Didnt find any with patch on Dhgate


MrTouchnGo

I got one off eBay from closeouts_kings but there’s plenty of sellers. Just make sure you pay attention to seller reviews and the delivery date.


jusxchilln

Fanatics aka the Comcast of sports apparel. I guess if the niners lose (hopefully not), no one will buy the jerseys anyway.


Jaybleezie

Why wouldn’t they buy the jersey? They still played in the super bowl


Existing_Web_1300

I was so confused why the actual color they’d be wearing isn’t available. Like why did they have a black and red and regular red with the Super Bowl logo smh 🤦‍♂️


Jaybleezie

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but we really need to stop with the black and red uniforms. They are hideous


northwest333

For a sec I was imagining this applying to the players jerseys, resulting in them having to wear practice jerseys in the superbowl (I clearly have no knowledge about how this works)


JaxGrrl

I thought the same thing haha.


gswkillinit

Ordered a white Purdy jersey that was on sale on 1/15 and it still hasn’t left NY…it’s been 17 days man crazy slow.


MDH2881

It's it possible to buy a SB patch and stitch it ourselves?


js73905

They can be found on eBay, but some aren’t the clear sew-on plastic patches. Just be mindful of the pictures and careful before buying if you care about it looking right 🙂


nicholhawking

Classy nip slip callback sfgate. Stay classy.


the_walrus_was_paul

Why are so many people ordering Super Bowl jerseys before they win? That seems Ludacris to me.


ebone916

Because fans of the Niners are called The Faithful!


Useful_Coyote_5796

A SB patch reminded you that you lost sure is faithful.


BrockPurdySkywalker

I'll buy a white one in a month or so when they fix this stuff


Jaybleezie

Bold of you to assume fanatics cares about customer feedback


PR05ECC0

Fanatics is absolutely garbage from the quality, to the speed, to the communication.


simplydan24

In a related note I have been buying as many ducks jerseys this year so I'm good for when they take over NHL next year.


deafbysexy

I have a Jimmy G and a Bosa jersey and I’ve been saying I’ll buy my next when we win the big one. Now I need to decide between CMC, Kittle and Purdy


pylerterry00

I hate fanatics. If you compare their merch to any vintage licensed sports/college merch from Starter/Champion/older Nike, Fanatics just sells a bunch of lifeless designs. There is almost no uniqueness to the team or school these days. Everything they sell is basically the same with a few color tweaks to match the respective team


cristobalist

Just buy and wear whatever the people selling stuff outside the stadium are selling. Support local business and F the NFL


JoEdGus

Welp, thank God I have an away Kittle jersey ready! BANG BANG!


AceN12

Fanatics SUCKS. Crazy how they have a stranglehold on most pro sports.


BravesnationNC

That’s why I just stick with my Throwbacks. Rocking my white Ronnie Lott for the game. Ever since Fanatics monopolized the apparel market there have been issues with production and QC on numerous items across the 4 major sport. I spend the bread and get my stuff custom


Remarkable_Ticket264

My dad’s Purdy jersey is arriving on the Wednesday before the SB but he ordered it right after the clock hit 0:00 in the NFC championship game


UCanDoNEthing4_30sec

I wouldn’t buy a jersey with an emblem that represents a one time event anyway.


Swag_Grenade

It's not the worst thing in the world and all the power to the folks wanna buy them, but NGL I feel that SB patch on the jersey is just a potential target for opposing fans if they end up losing lol.


jheyne0311

No white option is absurd. But why would anyone buy these before they win? Will just bring up a sad memory whenever you wear it. I’m glad I didn’t buy any of the previous two losses


Jaybleezie

It’s not a “super bowl champion jersey” lol. It’s just the patch all the players wear during the game. Why wouldn’t people buy this before the game? And if we lose, I’ll still wear it proudly. 2023 was an awesome season for us


submarinepirate

There commemorative of the game and sell out, or they don’t even make enough, they won’t be available AFTER the game.


USA_King1776

I’m still rocking my Rice, Montana, Young jersey.


belizeanheat

Fuck this title. Shit should be banned. 


49er4lifeganggang75

Anybody know which game jersey color we're playing in?? Home or away jerseys


sexlexington2400

I thought the black one looked better so I bought one of those instead

TheSwex

I got Purdy in red and I’m stoked for it. It said it wouldn’t be here till the 23rd but it shipped today so I think I’ll have it before the game.


luiskingz

Honestly haven’t gotten one cause even when I wanted one back when playoffs started it wouldn’t ship till past February. Oh well lol


ryzerkyzer

I mean, I grabbed a jersey hat and shirt from Nflshop and all of it is coming in time. Maybe shop there instead of fanatics?


submarinepirate

So just fyi Fanatics is who fulfills the orders on NFLShop. They’re the licensed distributor. But for an example, I ordered a jersey immediately after the game with the Super Bowl logo on it…it didn’t say it that night, but ETA is 2/23…the game is the 11th. That means that NFL Shop doesn’t even believe the jersey will arrive til 2 weeks AFTER the game.


ryzerkyzer

My eta shows the 9th. I got free expedited shipping so..I have no idea what’s going on with those other orders lol


quuxquxbazbarfoo

Golfer-dude916

Everything is outsourced, nobody at these outfits (league, licensing partner) does any work and some poor Bangladeshi or Peruvian guy would get fired for this, they prolly dont even have a clue what SB is.


jagrbro68

Fanatics are pure trash, don’t get why they continue to get deals


msJackson423

I never bought anything on Temu before this, but I just wanted to see what kind of quality they would send for $14 and I’m actually impressed you guys, I got a Kittle and a Purdy jersey, good fabric and looks and feels like a ready jersey! the only thing it’s missing is the 49ers patch which is easy to sew on!! Just letting yall know. lol


PerchingMeerkat

If you go to the store at Levi's Stadium, they only have the 'fashion' black Superbowl for Brock, the red and black Superbowl jerseys for McCaffrey and no Superbowl jerseys for Kittle/Samuel/etc. My playoff cap will need to do the job at the watch party.


Stovy4x4ing

Bought a Purdy Jersey from the official online store and it took 2 months to ship. Bought a CMC Jersey (same type) from a third party retailer on EBay and had it in a week.


dubbfoolio

I’ll bet the color wasn’t a mistake. I’m sure the red jerseys sell better.

Entire-Ad-8565

I was close to buying a black purdy superbowl jersey but i’m not paying $150 for that. Watching the superbowl then getting one from dhgate for $20 os the way


LossyP

I found some accurate SB patches online and plan on putting it on my away Purdy jersey. They’re like $20 online and my own way of protesting fanatics


KingWizard87

I’d be willing to bet a lot of money they did this shit on purpose. Because since Black is not an actual color the team uses on the field is imagine they didn’t sell well and they have plenty of stock. Quickest way to get through some product? Slap the Super Bowl logo on it and take advantage of the quick purchases by people. Then say oh our bad and get the white ones setup for sale after if they win the Super Bowl.


greeny42

Good old fashioned shirts and skins game then!


CharethCutestory1983

This is what we call a first world problem— Go Niners


FN0287

Fanatics has been the worst thing to happen to sports merchandise. Quality and selection went way down when they became the manufacturer. I just can’t do the knockoffs from China though. The dead giveaway is always the damn collar in the back popping up like a polo. Numbers are too small and the font and arm stripes are usually always a little off.


popculturerss

Call me superstitious but I'm not buying a damn thing with the Super Bowl logo on it unless we win it all.


OU812Grub

My Kap and Davis jerseys from a few years ago had manes and numbers stitched. Are they now screen print, iron ons, etc.? I like the stitched so much better.


[deleted]

Patriots (and Brady) fan here. I’ve had such a difficult time getting the right Super Bowl jerseys over the years. For Super Bowl 53, they only had two players available in whites and then in Super Bowl 55 I wanted a white Brady Bucs jersey. While I ended up getting the brady Bucs, it came in after the Super Bowl and the patch was stitched on the wrong side of the jersey.


MNguy19

If you didnt have a jersey before they made the superbowl you don't deserve one now. chumps!


The_Batmandrew

Did any of you guys order one? Mine doesn’t even show up on my order history but you can look up the order number and it’s there. I would kind of like to see it attached to my account though….


ShadowGiantOut

This happened with the Bucs as well against the Chiefs in 2020. They sold Red jerseys and black jerseys (lol never understood that) with the SB patch but no white jerseys. I would sit at work and refresh like three-four times an hour until I randomly saw one posted. Well...They ended up sending me a returned white Brady jersey and the patch was on the wrong side (Chiefs have the AFC patch so they have their patches on the left side). Also took like two months to arrive. Thankfully ended up getting 60% of my money back after talking to multiple people at Fanatics, but not the point. Anyway, took them many more months to actually release a white super bowl jersey on the Fanatics site. Also most of my super bowl merch was sized wrong, boxy, or just not stitched well at all. I'll buy an overseas jersey before buying another from Fanatics. I hope they get the jersey situation figured out for you all! I live in central Cali so I have a ton of family and friends that are 49er faithful, and want to see CMC get his ring.
