The current state of jersey buying is depressing: (alien.top)

Wanted a Nick Chubb Browns retro jersey. $170 on the NFL team shot website. Went to a Chinese knockoff site, I could’ve bought 7 different jerseys for $170. The price difference is just insane. How can they justify pricing a jersey at $170? Do people actually buy it?

I've ordered off DH gate a few times. All the jerseys I've gotten you wouldn't know are fake unless you were told. Their shipping is awful though. Takes like a month a half from purchasing until you actually receive it

I compared my DH gate and real jerseys and you couldn’t tell the difference unless you really looked.

And anyone who gatekeeps another fan by walking up with a magnifying glass and demanding to know if it's authentic or not is a chode. Clothes are clothes, nobody should care what someone else is wearing.

On the flip side, I’ve had a couple dh gate basketball jersey back in the day that were clearly fake with weird font or letter spacing

I got a brewers jersey that was pretty poor quality and haven’t bought from there since.

DH is the way to go now.

It’s because it comes from China and they have to use an odd postage system to get it past customs.
