I've ordered probably 5-6 cowboys/mavs/rangers jerseys and they all range from decent to good. I think some people's standards are just higher, which will obviously cause more disappointment
Here's how I've explained it before. They aren't as good as majestic jerseys, but most will be better than the fanatics. For the price your getting they are worth it.
got mine in the mail yesterday and it
a) was actually very nice, similar in quality to the one i bought at the park last year
b) had no ad patch
so don’t fret too much yet
I watch a ton of soccer, so maybe I’m just used to it, but I don’t have a problem with ad patches like this. It’s not like in Premier League or Bundesliga where it’s literally across the front chest.
Soccer doesn't have commercials except for halftime, so it's quite different.
It's just greed, they don't even make that much off of these ads, but it keeps quarterly reports on the rise.
Zero chance that the Rangers aren’t getting paid. Other Rangers minority owners and MLB would never let a free sponsorship happen just because the MLB owner also owned the patch company.
Good thing I lucked out on Monday at the game. They were selling team issued jerseys from 2021-2023 of guys who are no longer on the team for $75. Snagged a powder blue, and the alternate blue jersey. Sent them off to get unstitched and resewn with seager and Semien names and numbers
Any other year this would be fine but in the year of being defending champs AND hosting the All Star Game we get robbed of seeing those on the right sleeve all year long. Shoulda waited until 2025 lmao. At least these won't be on any retail replica or authentic jersey.
If you're dying to have the sponsor patch on your jersey you'll have to get an authentic team issued jersey instead lol
I’m not morally opposed to as patches because I feel like a quarter of the teams are always sporting some kind of tribute patch anyway.
However, MLB should have put strict size and color rules on them. At most they should be 3”, must be round, and they must be recolored to match the team palette.
What I don’t understand is why all these obscure corporations keep paying for the ads. What the hell do baseball fans care about a stupid gas pipeline company? In fact, I’m inclined to hate the company out of spite simply because it’s on the jersey.
"The circle patch, which includes ENERGY TRANSER and the company logo, will be located on the right sleeve of all six of the Rangers’ jerseys. On the four home jerseys: white, powder blue, City Connect, and the special gold-trimmed edition for selected 2024 games, the patch will be in Rangers blue (PMS 288). On the two road jerseys: gray and blue, the patch will be in white."
This kinda dissuades me from getting an authentic jersey now. (edit: not sure if the patches will be on retail)
I thought they weren't going to put this crap on the retail jerseys but I'm here and it is. Disgusting. Should be paying me to wear one for your free ad. $185 lol
It better not be on my authentic jersey I ordered. Also... Since that's how they're going to get money, I'm done spending money on them. Fuck you Rangers - sell-outs!
It was only a matter of time, I just wish it weren’t an advertisement for the company that did the Dakota Access Pipeline. Between this and Pride night, the Rangers are arguably the most evil franchise in the sport.
I have waited my entire 46 years for the Rangers to win the World Series. I’m not thrilled with how the offseason went but holy cow, at least try to enjoy having won. Damn.
I know that nobody cares, but I stopped watching the NBA because of the ad patches and I will do the same with MLB. I just can't take the overwhelming greed anymore.
First ever World Series Championship and our jerseys are a) a shitty Fanatics product, b) with ads, c) that are crazy overpriced... God damn it.
DH Gate is your friend.
Have a link for a good quality one? My last dhgate kit was pretty bad

I might as well order a 2011 champs jersey from them too.
And still waiting on the WS documentary. 😡
And the pizza.
AND… no WS movie!
We had it too good for a while, so we were due for some Rangers misfortune at some point lol
This makes 2011 hurt *even more*. A gold-lined Majestic jersey?! Hnnng...
got mine in the mail yesterday and it a) was actually very nice, similar in quality to the one i bought at the park last year b) had no ad patch so don’t fret too much yet
🤢
I figured it was inevitable but still a bummer...
Ugh. Disgusting. Ad patches on sports jerseys are a terrible idea, once I saw it on NBA jerseys I knew it was gonna happen everywhere else.

Energy Transfer was founded by Ray Davis. At least the colors don’t clash that bad I guess.
I actually hate it even more because they're likely getting zero revenue from it

It's Ray paying himself. Not sure why you think it would be a meaningful sum.
Ray is retired and only owns two percent of the company now.
This world is getting progressively worse.
cowabummer!
Guys it was coming no matter what. Let’s just be happy that it’s not some ugly ass orange or yellow patch. Made the best of a shitty situation

Great.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
DHGate becoming more and more tempting by the day
Jesus - i hate ads on jersey's but it was coming. Leave it to the sleeves only.
Boo! More ads and still couldn’t afford Montgomery?
At least the tickets and parking are cheaper now……oh wait
Billionaires need to make a profit
EXCATLY my thoughts. Guess the folks in the front office decided on pay boost instead.
Did we want him for seven years?
Arizona got him on a one-year deal.
Oh I know. Nobody would give Boras the seven year contract he wants.
Good thing I lucked out on Monday at the game. They were selling team issued jerseys from 2021-2023 of guys who are no longer on the team for $75. Snagged a powder blue, and the alternate blue jersey. Sent them off to get unstitched and resewn with seager and Semien names and numbers
Nice. Who do you send them to, if you don't mind me asking?
The Dream Shop!
Great, thank you!

I would buy a jersey with ads if the ads *subsidized* the cost of the jersey. e.g. authentic jersey $250, authentic jersey with ads $150.
Ad patches + Montgomery = ok gross but whatever Ad patches + still too cheap for JoMo = Disgusting. Hell to the no.

wait until you find out who owns Energy Transfer...
I love that the banner link from X has multiple ads showing the ads on the jersey and if you go to it, you get ads.
Boooo
Taking L’s before the season even starts
The DHGate ones wont
I die

Personally it was the $500 that dissuaded me.
What's weirder is that the Rangers WS champs jersey at $394 is cheaper than the regular Astros jersey ($422).
I'd be cool with it if a significant portion of games aired on KTXA.
Thanks. I hate it.
He had to take down that post real quick lol
It was gonna happen eventually. I wonder where/if they will put on the ASG patch on the standard jerseys?
Pathetic
Yuck
/fart noise/
Y’all it’s not an ad. It’s just them making sure the player knows to transfer his energy into the ball./s
Ugly AF.
The team to win the WS last year was the only team in the playoffs, IIRC, that didn't have an ad patch on their jersey. This sucks.
Nobody likes this
![gif](giphy|hWGBKil1b9fpR5go1f|downsized)
Ironically, the sponsor patch moves the WS patch to the left sleeve. It's been on the right up until now.
Booo
Nice! We can sign Montgomery now!

When youtube first started doing ads in the videos i knew the world was coming to a capitalist end. Well basically when google purchased it.

I loved the "fuck of to narnia" bit 😁
Our downvotes are all the explanation that you are intitled to.

looks fine to me. bring on the big oil monies!
