Thanks all for the sub not being too crazy this week. Makes it easy for us moderators when we win and everyone's happy. I'm super glad my Brock Jersey has arrived, he's been playing like prime Joe Montana. 2 weeks before the season started I wanted to replace my Jimmy jersey with a Brock one but didn't want to shell out $150+ to make it happen. I scoured the internet for the best place to buy a jersey and ended up buying one from 2 different sellers I found so I could compare and share my experiences with each.

The two sites I ordered from were Jenna Jerseys and a "top rated" DH Gate seller Huang8866. I'll be ranking them below in detail and then providing an overall rating at the bottom if you want to skip through.

Here's a comparison of categories and which Jersey maker won each category.

Cost: Jenna Jersey

Jenna Jersey was $23, DH Gate was $27. Both prices include shipping.

Shipping time: DH Gate (Barely)

DH Gate came in 14 days after payment, Jenna Jersey came in 19 days after payment. Waiting 5 more days wasn't that big of a deal, tracking is slow to update for both and I'd advise not looking at it at all once you order. They both shipped with the same speed service and provider so I wouldn't be surprised it just was random chance one arrived 5 days before the other.

Ease of order: DH Gate (Slightly)

DH Gate was easier to order from, there's an actual listing page, you just pick size and jersey type, add to cart and pay. For Jenna you have to place an order on her website that includes prices (no payment yet though), and then you get an email a few min to a few hours after (check spam, it was there for me) from her directing you to an Alibaba listing that's $1 and then instructing you to make the quantity whatever you have to pay. In my case the jersey was $21 so I added 21 of a $1 placeholder listing to my cart and then paid after taxes were applied. It's a few hoops to jump through but it's not super complicated and communication is clear. You can DM/comment if you need help from me or you can email her. You can use a credit card for both Jerseys since you're either paying on DH Gate or Alibaba, 2 pretty safe sites for payment info.

Seller communication: Jenna Jersey

Jenna didn't win this category as much as DH Gate lost it. Jenna was quick to send a link to pay on her shop to my email (within min) and confirmed payment within hours as well after I asked to double-check. The english is fine and she communicates shipping times clearly. DH Gate had fine communication with payment and shipping alerts (easier since it's all automated unlike Jenna). However, when I had an issue with my DH Gate jersey (more later on in the review), the seller was extremely unhelpful and would not give even a partial refund until I had DH Gate step in. Maybe it was just my seller but if he was "top-rated" I assume the other sellers aren't any better. FYI, DH Gate is loaded with fake reviews so don't trust those.

Logo quality: Jenna Jersey

Look at the imgur albums for comparison but Jenna Jerseys copy of the Nike swoosh is AMAZING. You can see how the DH Gate one compares to an official Rams jersey (don't judge me, it's a divided house). It's a little patch stitched on and is obviously fake. However, the Jenna one is a 99% identical copy to the legit thing and no one will be able to notice the difference. For the NFL logo on the collar the DH gate one is a bit better (they use blue dye on the NFL logo vs black on Jenna). However, it's such a small part and it's not really noticeable so I'm not worried about it. The Nike swoosh is much more important to me and Jenna delivered.

Stitch quality: Tie

You can tell from the images it's about the same. I'd say Jenna is a bit more crisp with the number stitching but worse with the nameplate stitching (a tad crooked and curved). Evens out. Both are fully stitched though, none of that sticker crap and look super great. See images but there's not a clear winner here.

Sizing: Jenna Jersey BY FAR

This was the biggest concern I had with the DH Gate Jersey. I ordered an adult small but it fit like an adult XL (no joke). The length measurements were over by a few inches compared to the sellers description and fit me like a dress. When I asked for a refund they refused and I had to involve DH Gate support which was a pain. Jenna however, fit just like the measurements listed on the website. Hers are true to the description

TLDR & Overall: Jenna Jersey

Both Jerseys have comparable stitching and the colors are accurate. However, sizing is the most important factor in clothing and DH Gate just isn't true to sizing. Jenna has the more accurate Nike logo copy which is a big part of the authentic feel of a jersey. It's a bit longer of an order process but the quality is worth it. For less than $25 it's a steal. My DH Gate seller also didn't help me when I told him it didn't fit and sent images with measurements and that soured that experience as well. Maybe Jenna would also refuse a refund if you complained about sizing but from my experience, her Jerseys are true to the website description.

Giveaway!

If you've read this far thanks for taking the time to read all this. If your true jersey size is an XL and you don't mind wearing a knockoff leave a comment on this post with the phrase #BP13 somwhere in your comment and I'll select a random winner on Sunday after the game to ship the DH Gate jersey to free of charge (USA only). Look through the imgur album to make sure you'd be happy with the jersey before commenting so that it goes to a home where it'll be worn proudly. Again, it says small but fits like an XL. You can see some of the measurements on the imgur post but let me know if you need more and I'll add them to the album.

Please leave a comment if you have any questions or if I missed anything in my review. GO NINERS!!!
