Replica Vs Authentic Soccer Jerseys Differences & Buying Guide by seoprix(m): 12:52pm On Jan 29
You have two options when buying an officially licensed soccer jersey: an authentic jersey or a replica jersey. But how do you know which one to buy?

AUTHENTIC VS REPLICA SOCCER JERSEYS: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

It is hard to tell the difference between an authentic and a replica soccer jersey at first glance. Their logos, colors, and looks are almost identical (especially when viewed online).

The price difference between authentic and replica jerseys is so large since authentic jerseys cost 45% to 70% more than replicas. Why do authentic jerseys seem to be better than replicas? No, that's the short answer. The longer answer is related to the jersey's purpose. The "real thing" is provided by both types of jerseys. There is a main difference between a jersey designed for field play and a jersey designed for everyday wear.

Authentic jerseys are made from the highest quality fabrics and technologies. The jerseys look exactly like the ones players wear on the field.

The replica jerseys are made for fans in the stands - with excellent materials for maximum comfort and durability.

There are three main differences between authentic and replica soccer jerseys: fit, fabric, and badges.

Fabric

Authentic - The most notable difference in the feel of authentic jerseys is the fabric. It’s extremely lightweight and stretchy. This fabric is designed to be breathable, with many tiny holes to allow for ventilation. And, the sweat-wicking feature of an authentic jersey keeps moisture away from a player’s body, while the fabric dries more quickly.

Replica - These jerseys are still made from very breathable fabric, although there isn’t as much ventilation (i.e. tiny holes in the fabric). These jerseys are not as stretchy and are made of a heavier weight, climate control fabric for longer durability.

Fit

Authentic - These jerseys have a sleeker, athletic design. Players benefit from the slim fit because it prevents loose fabric from being grabbed by aggressive opponents.

Replica - These jerseys are designed for comfortable normal wear. The fit is more relaxed, so you can show your support in the stands or out on the street. Unlike the authentic fit, this fit is better for most body types, even ones that haven’t been out on the field for a while.

Badges

Authentic - Badges on authentic jerseys are heat transferred. This creates a more seamless look and is lighter weight for players on the field.

Replica - Jerseys with these badges and logos have the same look and feel as genuine jerseys, but they are embroidered on, giving them a more weighty feel and look.

It's just a matter of deciding which fit and feel you prefer now that you know the difference between an authentic and a replica jersey. Looking for a comfortable, relaxed fit for sitting in the stands? You may also be looking for a lightweight trim jersey that looks just like the ones worn by the players? You decide.

If you want to be sure that your jersey is official, make sure you purchase it from a trustworthy business like Authentic Soccer.

FAKE OR OFFICIAL JERSEY? HOW CAN I TELL THE DIFFERENCE?

When buying soccer jerseys online, you will notice a lot of price differentiation, which should lead you to wonder, “What’s the difference? ” What makes a difference is whether you're buying an authentic jersey or just an imitation.

Here are a few tips we'd like to share as a reputable dealer who sells officially licensed jerseys. Consumers can't tell much about a jersey's quality online, but the jersey's quality is what matters most. Therefore, you need to know what to look for when you're shopping online. You can avoid buying a fake jersey by considering these tips.

1. Look for a serialized "Authentic Soccer Replica" or "Officially Licensed Soccer Replica" hologram or label usually found on the collar or waist band. This label has a unique serial number for each official jersey. When you don't have it, you know what you're buying isn't authentic.

2. Make sure there’s an official brand label from Nike, Adidas, Puma, etc… located on the jersey. You've got an imitation if this isn't there.

Make sure the seller is established and reputable. Authentic Soccer is an authorized retailer that sells officially licensed soccer jerseys. You can trust us since 1988, and we aren't going anywhere.

You should be on your guard when you see a deal that seems too good to be true if you're looking for an official jersey. There is an old saying that goes, "You get what you pay for." And when you pay a lot less, you are probably going to get something less than genuine.
