I am sitting here typing this in my brand new authentic matt leinart jersey that I scored for 80 bucks out the door!
I went by this little sports shop about a month ago and the guy had it hanging there and offered it to me for that price but i didn't have the cash,

I went back today and lo and behold it was still there, I guess theres not much of a market for the cards here in fresno, so he got stuck with it and his loss is my gain!
man its sweet!!
just had to share my happiness and good fortune with people who would understand

So you think. I got my Leinart jersey for free!

OK, it was a XMAS present, but still...

Fresno, eh? You're not terribly far away from me (Chico). Good to have other Cali Cards fans on the board. :)

I got a better one for you!!

Was in a store yesterday here in Jersey and they had authentic jerseys for 50 bucks!!!!

Got myself a Fitz jersey and they still had some Leinert ones left.

I may still go back and buy another one, now that was a steal.

Not to burst your bubble, but I'm guessing that you're jerseys are fake.

Put a picture here and I'll tell you.

eBay is filled with fakes and when you see a real one, it goes for $200+ still.

By the way, when you say authentic, are you saying it has sewn on numbers and letters, embroided reebok logos on the sleeves, and embroidered Cards head on the back? Are are you saying they are authentic Reebok products? Is the sizing S, M, L, XL or 48, 50, 52, 54?

There are four styles of jerseys available:

Reebok Replica
Reebok Replithentic
Reebok Authentic
Fake

Let me correct myself. I went on the Reebok site and they list it as the "PREMIER" jersey!!! List price $99. But for $50, its still a deal.

The numbers and letters are sewn on.

That is a good deal and they are good looking. Those are also called Replithentic.

I love those premier jerseys, they are good quality and 100 bucks cheeper than the authentic. That is a sweet deal. No stores up here in Md carry any cards stuff at all.

It took me a long time to finally buy this jersey. I would always visit this store waiting for the stuff to go on sale, after all this is New Jersey and as you might imagine there isnt much desire for Arizona Cardinal gear around here and finding a store with that style of jersey is extreamly difficult. I dropped by the store yesterday and everything was half off.......FINALLY!! :)

Here's how you can tell if it's authentic:

1. Has sewn on numbers and letters made of twill. You can look inside and you should see the stiching on the inside of the jersey.

2. Is sized 48, 50, 52, 54, 56, 58, or 60.

(The above two points are generally copied on fake jerseys. The following items are usually not.)

3. The mesh material looks like a bunch of diamonds with holes at the 4 points (see picture below).

4. The Cardinal logo on the back is both the current logo and is embroided (sewn through) the jersey. It's not a patch.

5. The Reebok shoulder logos are embroidered (sewn through).

6. The numbers and letters correctly follow the Cardinals "font". Pantone has posted them here several times.

7. The jersey has tapered sleeves as pictured below. The authentic jerseys are NOT square with two sleeves coming out.

How about this one? Looks real, but the number font is wrong. Oh wait, China forgot to put numbers on the shoulders. You better call Beijing!

Looks real to me. The name plate sytle is 2005. Starting in '06 the letters are white and black like the numbers.

For $25 that would be a steal.
I got one for $40 shipped. I guess they are truely authentic and the reason why they are so cheap is because it is the 05 version instead of the updated one. It's not that big of a deal, I don't think many people will notice anyways, and I'd rather have the 05 name plate and an authentic than the 06 nameplate and one of those cheap flimsy iron on replicas where the numbers fade after awhile.

It looks like most if not all Leinart's on eBay are fakes.

I just picked up a jersey for $30 on ebay. Legit? I think so, but something seems a bit off about it.
