    No, but I've never seen that tag or the 4lb added and my employer deals with thousands (literally, no exaggeration) of 'custom' and 'knockoff' autographed jerseys for product.
    Normally, a fake jersey will have all the stars in the NFL jock tag touching and looking like a white pile of mush.
    These are all each defined and separate.
    This is all very clean with the correct font. A few points could be argued with this, but IMO the jock tag isn't one of em.
    Maybe they added the 4lb, MIB, and (if they are going to that much trouble already) a legit jock tag.. but with respect, I doubt it


    The difference in opinion is that we may be looking at it different. I'm under the assumption that if this isn't legit that it's mass produced like most knockoffs.
    If what you are saying is true, it would have to be a one off where someone applied the tags and that just seems like a lot of work for a jersey (that although is really cool) value wise is just meh..
    I, like most here despise knockoffs but having to deal with them as much as I do - have seen what's out there more than most.
    The only massed produced example of something even remotely similar is the hockey jerseys with the emigrant.
    Likely, we'll never know so it's a moot point. Being able to feel the jersey would give us our answer right away- but that's obviously not possible.

    Re: This Pro Bowl jersey legit?

    Sorry, didn't have my head on straight
    Here's a real jock tag that should be there if legit GI
    GI or GU jock tags don't have size or NFL PLAYERS logo on them.
    IMO with that tag, altered retail.

    Question Re: This Pro Bowl jersey legit?

    Isn't this the correct jock tag style for the 2008 Reebok game worn or issued football jerseys?

    that is what the tagging looks like on the Pro Bowl "issued" or game used should look like.

    Re: This Pro Bowl jersey legit?

    Good work guys!
    I admit, I was just looking at what was there in re: to tell tale knock-off signs rather than what the tag 'SHOULD' look like.
    http://www.nflshop.com/Pro_Bowl_Gear...ic_Blue_Jersey
    This may appear lazy on my behalf... but I just couldnt fathom someone going to the trouble to 'fake' a game issued shirt so it didnt even occur to me until CB4Evr thought the tags might be added and fishy.
    I took a look at this which is obviously 'authentic' albeit 'retail' and although this is a game used board, it didnt click that the OP was asking in the context 'is this a legit' gamer- rather than is this a knockoff or not knockoff.
    In that sense I dont think I was wrong, but admittedly missed the boat on what was actually being asked.
    I usually stick to 80's and 90's stuff as thats what in my wheel house as I dont collect new-ish gamers.
    I just took the question as a simple 'real' or 'knockoff' rather than 'real' or 'fake' and answered accordingly.
    I'm sorry, and hope it didnt cause any issues!
