Cutting to the chase. The material feels “cheap.” I have a LOT of jerseys, and this material feels thin and “silky” like a Cycloens jersey, not what I am used to from an MLB jersey.
Also, maybe I didn’t pay enough attention, but the jersey has this weird splatter pattern on it. It does not look good up close.
Here you can see the splatter a bit more. I don’t think I noticed that when they were announced, but again maybe I just didn’t pay attention.
I thought these were going to make good civilian-wear, but now I am not so sure. They are also more gray than I imagined… not as easy to pair with other items as, dare I say it, a black jersey is.
Overall: disappointed.
Here’s the promo image, do you see the splatter? I don’t.
Also my jersey looks lighter than the image below. Not as light as the image above is making it look to my eye here in the room with the jersey, but not as dark either.
Anyway I will wear my cap and jersey together some day and let you know how it looks on a middle aged fat guy.
