    Question for new Nike football jersey owners

    I don't know how to post the link. But there's a Rogers nike 2012 jersey for
    sale on eBay. I'm not a GB fan but noticed on one of the pic's it had the
    "Made in Berlin" tag on the inside. Do the new ones have that? I figured Nike was using there own factory's and that wouldn't be there.
    Just looking for advise, wanting to pick up my first Nike and just wanna make
    sure if on pops up on eBay I don't get swindled.

    I have a Nike jersey from the Lions and it says Made in the USA.

      It's an authentic game jersey, just nothing to indicate it was ever team issued, likely a sample. Tags look correct, I can double-check on Monday to see what the serial numbers stand for to give you a better idea. Notice it is made in Berlin, Wisconsin... that is where the jersey factory is located so that part is legit.

        Do you have access to a database that lists the serial numbers?

        It's my understanding that every jersey has a different number.

          In addition, when Nike made the Packers jerseys in the late 90's, they were made in Berlin.

            Same factory then and now. No access to any database per se, but should be able to find out more about the serial number cadence. If only certain prefixes were assigned for team issued vs samples, etc.

              The last 5 digits of the serial # are blurred out on the Rodgers
              jersey. I just didn't think Nike would use the same tag, in the
              same place as Reebok did. I think the 2012 tag is only on the neck
              line. Any owners got any inside pics of theirs.

                The tagging is correct for a game issued jersey.
