Jersey FAQ
Are stitched numbers better than heat-pressed?
Stitched numbers generally last longer and hold up better in the wash, but they add weight and cost. Heat-pressed is acceptable for casual wear, but for frequent use, stitching is the safer choice.
How do I know if the jersey color is correct?
Compare the seller's photos against high-resolution retail images from the same season. Small shade differences are common, but major color shifts usually indicate a lower-tier batch.
