How to Buy an NFL Jersey
When purchasing NFL jerseys, it's important to know exactly what type you're looking for. Jerseys are split into 3 categories to meet the needs of all types of fans. If you're just looking for a recreational jersey to show your team pride, then the Replica model may be your best choice. For a slightly heavier and more durable design, you can choose from the Premier line. If you want the same look and high-quality as the jerseys worn by the players on the field, then an Authentic jersey is for you! Each type of jersey shows you're a true fan and the chart below is designed to help you choose the one that's best for you.

Premier jerseys are made with slightly heavier fabric than Replica jerseys and have sewn-on numbers and names. These jerseys fall in-between the on-field Authentic jerseys and the Replica jerseys. |
Authentic jerseys are crafted just like the ones on the field. They feature heavier fabric with all sewn-on graphics matching those worn by the actual players. These jerseys are designed for fans seeking the same high quality as worn by their favorite players. |
