Ripon Jerseys

[perlman9]

Does anyone know if Ripon jerseys made in Berlin, WI were game issued or worn by a team? I have never seen that tag before and just curious if anyone knows about those jerseys.

If the jersey exhibits the Ripon Athletic tag and not the Reebok tag, and embroidered Reebok logos on the shoulders, it was definitely not worn in any game. Ripon has a factory outlet store in Berlin where "pro-cut" jerseys can be purchased.

Thanks! They didn't look right but because of Berlin, thought I would give it a long shot.

The only jerseys I have seen with a Ripon tag that I was comfortable with were pre-Reebok contract. I've seen Bengals gamers from 1999-2000 with Puma sleeve logos, but a Ripon tail tag. Nothing from 2001 or later, however.
