A little more than 2 months left till football

I think it's time for me to order my first jersey. Anyone know a good place to order them or is the NFL/team website the best place? If I can get the same jersey for a lower price somewhere else, that would be awesome. Can't get it locally since I'm not exactly a fan of the local team

Also want to make sure sizing is the same as it would be for a regular shirt. I don't see why it wouldn't be, but just making sure I don't accidentally order the wrong size.

If you get an officially licensed jersey, you can expect to pay through the nose. The replica jerseys with screened on numbers/letters will be cheaper. The authentics with the stitched numbers are more expensive, but look much better.

If you find some on clearance at a store, you can save big bucks, especially if the player is no longer with the team. Being a pats fan in MD, you may have a hard time finding this locally. Might try amazon or something.

If you get a non-licensed, knockoff product, you'll save a lot, but you'll not be supporting the team. And most people won't notice it until they're right up on you. Even if they do notice it, they probably won't care as much about that as the team you're rooting for by wearing it.

Edit: I usually order mine a size or two bigger, because they're meant to be worn a little loose.

No I definitely want an authentic one. I think I can probably order the same size as my AFC Champs t-shirt since it was a looser fit. Just gotta go home and check what size that was.

Also thought about going into a store like Modell's or something and test fitting a jersey, but I could never put on a Ravens jersey
