My Mother used to call these authentic baseball jerseys "Monkeysuits" because of all the lettering and writing-but they're the real thing and it's all about repping your team-You're never too old to wear sports jerseys(especially baseball jerseys)

The Blue Jays have always had some of the prettiest jerseys of anyone. I especially like that they use unique numbers that no one else uses.

Hey Mike, I'm a fan of your channel and jersey collection. Here's my take: I think it's a matter of what you value and where your priorities are. I'm personally more into the authentic hats and jackets than the jerseys, so I've purchased a lot of authentic Jays hats and an official bullpen jacket. I'm personally not comfortable wearing the official authentic jerseys because I think the prices are outrageous (especially for Canadians), so I purchase the Chinese knock-offs instead. They aren't perfect, but I'm happy with the quality of the knock-offs for the price I pay. For someone like yourself who is a jersey collector, you would certainly be able to spot a knock off jersey; however, I think the majority of people wouldn't know the difference. That's my take. Go Jays.

Diamond Vault thanks for the feedback! You're absolutely right, the authentics are super expensive. I agree with you that it ultimately comes down to personal preference but where I disagree is that I've had encounters with people who will promote their knockoff as an actual authentic. When I've tried to educate them that they're not authentic, people will get upset etc. That's my only issue with it. I'll be honest I have a closet full of knock off NHL jerseys and they look so identical that it would be hard for the average person to tell the difference. I appreciate the feedback because I'm just a die hard Jays fan haha.

I agree. I have 3 chinese knock-off Blue Jays jerseys and I've never claimed they were authentic. If I weren't such a slob I'd probably buy an authentic jersey, but I'm super afraid of damaging, staining. or ripping it. I enjoy your vids, regardless.

You got a bad fake, it’s a gamble with them. Sometimes you’ll get a really nice one. Letters line up tags and patches are straight and other times you’ll get a really poorly made, threads coming out, and a huge gap in the middle one😂

Blue Jay Mike I work full time and I can't afford an authentic one. Sometimes other bills come first but I think I'd rather pay for the real deal as I know it will last. Wish the last generation of Raptors uniforms were still being worn I miss those. If I had the $$$ I'd even get a Fishercats and Bisons jerseys as they are the Jays minor league teams. I'd like to have all the various Jays affiliates jerseys. The minion league jerseys aren't that badly price. Most seem to be under $100 even if you have them customized!

dead pool i say it's a bad thing because some people promote the knock offs as authentic. Yeah I get it, the jerseys are expensive but who says you have to buy a jersey? Buy a t-shirt, sweater, hat etc. I did this as a guide for people if they want to compare. Also for example if you wanted to get new shoes, would you buy fake ones? Shoes can be just as expensive if not more wether they are dress shoes, running shoes etc. My point, don't support fakes. No one says you have to buy a jersey but supporting the fake black market doesn't help the situation either.

I used to feel the same way....but you know what, its clothing. I pay $10 for a beer. I pay $6 for a Soda. I pay $30 to PARK! Instead of looking at it like its "fake" I look at it like, I made it. I'm not good at sewing, knitting, etc. But I can basically go to 3-10 (depending on Jersey/Sport) more games a season...its not fake, I made it :)...Plus, back in "09 when I bought my Josh Johnson Jersey (cause I thought he was the best pitcher in the league) that sucked. He was gone less than 2yrs later.

Actually the cool bases have always been screen printed at least for the last 6-7 years. I have a 2010 Giants World Series jersey and the jock tag is screen printed into the jersey. Up until this year the Jays and Yankees were the only teams that had an actual stitched on jock tag. Every other team was using cool base and the jock tags were screen printed into the jerseys.

@michaelhamilton1594

Hey man sorry for the late reply. I had messaged Majestic that same question and they never got back to me. If you buy an authentic from Fanatics or MLB shop the Majestic logo is on the sleeve. So I'm figuring it's probably some kind of licensing agreement the Yankees have with Majestic that the logo cannot be placed on the actual game worn jerseys. That's the only solution I can think of.

AirIceGod55 they changed the logo with the flex bases. Before with the knits and the on field cool bases it was just the mountain with the dot in the mountain. That was the way you could tell if you had an on field jersey. Now it's harder to tell because both the replicas and the on fields have the same Majestic logo.

AirIceGod55 well if you have a cool base Donaldson jersey then it's a replica. It's not fake it's just the standard jersey that the teams sell instead of the actual on field authentic. For the on field, the Jays had the the heavy knits then they went to flex base last season
