How can you verify the added length to the jersey. Anyone measured this or take the word of the label.

Where can the length be added? to sleeves? to the part the pants that is tucked in? Are there separate label if both occur?

They can add length to the sleeve or even shorten it. The tag would say + or - (# of inches) Sleeve.

They can do the same with the overall length of the jersey but the tag would just be + or - (# of inches) Length

This is more specific to modern jerseys.

.......And there is usually a seperate tag for each if they occur.

Hi, Joel.

I found this Giants jersey in my collection that has a 2" extra sleeve length tag. Looking at the sleeves, it has a couple extra rows of stitching near the ends. I don't know if this is the added sleeve length, but it doesn't seem like 2" (more like an inch). Hope it is visible in the pictures.

Kind Regards,

Ron.
