Nike really dropped the ball with these latest limited runs… I’m glad I still have my cowboys limited runs from previous years 👍🏼 stitched name and numbers 👍🏼
Nike + Fanatics was the worse thing to happen to sports jerseys. Quality gets worse but price keeps going up. $175 now with NO STITCHING? come on now. Miss the old reebok days. They made quality jerseys, reasonable price and an unlimited selection of color and player choices. Still wearing my several reebok jerseys til this day! Side by side comparison w/ the new Nike ones , not even close.
Reeboks nhl jerseys the premiers ones were stitched with the name and number fanatics are heat pressed on not sewn stitched on and they're the same price too as the older reebok nhl jerseys.
I prefer the Limiteds simply because of the better fit, the sewn numbers are just a nice bonus. I wouldn’t even mind the heat pressed numbers as long as the material on them is better than in Game jerseys. But what really infuriates me is that Nike seems to be charging more for the F.U.S.E. Limiteds than the old ones. If anything, they should lower the price because by all logic, the manufacturing costs with heat pressing should now be lower as well. That’s why I’m conflicted on getting any of these. It basically sends them a message that they can keep cutting corners and raising prices on their products, because idiot consumers will keep buying them anyway.
I remember when the limited had the fly wire collar and it felt so baggy. Almost like they wanted you to pads underneath. I liked the untouchable limiteds so much more but the F.U.S.E. is not bad. All jerseys pricing are going up as well as everything else game jerseys are $130 now!!! They use to be $100.
@@thebus9185the limited jerseys will always be true to fit according to your regular shirt size the regular game jerseys always fit big so you have to go a size lower on those hope this helped
I had ordered a CMC Vapor F.U.S.E. and my numbers were pressed on over the seams which really bugged me. I see your Simmons was mostly good and only a little on the back.... I returned it and got the 130$ instead and the fit was even better!
As Football Fan since 1962, I was always a uniform fanatic for MLB, NFL, and NBA. NFL and AFL jerseys were tackle twill numbers until the early 70"s. A lot of teams switched to heat transfer numbers because of artificial turf. The Washington Redskins started wearing Green Packer Style uniforms in 1969 with tackle twill numbers but in 1974 they switched to heat transfer. The Philadelphia Eagles' new Kelly green throwbacks have tackle twill numbers but when that uniform was introduced in 1985 they used heat transfer numbers for every season except for the last season they were worn in 1995. I have owned Authentic Cowboys, Chargers, Redskins, and Eagle jerseys that were purchased when the teams were still wearing them and they were all heat transfer numbers. The Seahawk's throwbacks are in my opinion gorgeous and they have heat transfer numbers which are what was worn on the field. Tackle Twill lettering is a more premium material but the accuracy of the uniform is more important in my opinion.
Great video. Was hoping someone would do this. Saw a lot of people incorrectly saying “the $130 game and 175 fuse are the same thing with same numbers blah blah”. Knew they were wrong. Can’t wait to get my Eagles throwback
@@RealTennessteve thank god we finally got them back. You can thank Jeffery Laurie (Eagles owner) on getting the league to get rid of the 1 helmet rule.
Coming here after standing in line for a few hours waiting on a eagles jersey. I was excited to get my hands on the limited jersey and of course it sold out before I could purchase. I was pissed when I heard about the name and numbers not being stitched but after seeing this it changes my opinion. The numbers just look so much better than the game and you can tell it's still a good material despite not being stitched.
Thanks for the comment. I was skeptical once I found out it was not stitched after I purchased. I am glad I waited until I got mine before making any final decisions. You should not be disappointed either. Those Kelly Green limited FUSE will look sharp!
Very good explanation on this F.U.S.E. Limited jersey. I once owned a Washington Commanders white Vapor Limited jersey. It was good quality. The stitching was impressive for its price point. Didn’t keep it, though. Needless to say, I now have all three versions of the Terry McLaurin Elite jerseys. It seems with the F.U.S.E. Limited, it’s interesting how they did the controversial numbers. It seems like the edges of the numbers are heat-sealed, but there’s twill on the inside of the numbers. If they eventually sell a Jayden Daniels F.U.S.E. Limited, I think I’ll purchase.
I guess I’m just old school I’m not cool with these new football jerseys and basketball jerseys that aren’t stitches especially if I’m spending over $100 I’ll stick to wearing my old ones glad I invested when I did
Yea Mitchell and ness did that shit with the swingman nba jerseys they raised the price and the numbers and and name and nba logo aren't even stitched sewn on but they use to be like 3 to 5 yrs ago but now there screen heat pressed on not stitched and when there stitched sewn on they last longer in quality. When there sales drop then they'll change it back to what it was in quality but they're just getting greedy with the price ms and cheaper quality cause fanatics owns Mitchell and Ness company now.
Yeah it’s ridiculous. People spend a little extra money on jerseys to be able to have the stitch. Just like the players do on the field. Why would they charge more and take that away? Lol
if you want it to get it stitched, just go to your local sports place and ask them to see if they do stitching for jerseys. If they say yes, they will do it for you.
Man the prices and non stitch is pissing me off. I remember when I bought my Frank gore Nike limited jersey, it cost $130 back in 2013. Now they’re damn near $200. That’s crazy. Well at least the numbers and names are tackle twill still instead of that cheap screen print from game jerseys
Yea nikes getting greedy with there upped prices on there jerseys especially with there Jordan retros shoes, they only cost like 20 dollars to make maybe less then that cause they aren't made in the us or Canada they're made mostly in asian countries and they use that recycled polyester too and nikes jerseys they run small so if u wanna layer underneath u hafta buy 2 sizes bigger but when reebok made the nfl jerseys they run bigger and the authentic were great quality but the replicas not so much cause they faded easily after washes but they were good for layering underneath.
Got my kelly green. It feels so great. Makes me feel like im on the field. All of the materials feels great. Im still a fan of the stitch like he said but OMG its im in love with it.
Great review, I wanted to get. Rodgers Jets jersey but was sad about the lack of stitching. Think I’ll still stick with the $175 version, the quality looks much better.
Muscular short dude size-guide (5'8 190). Slim waist V-body. Bought them both in different sizes. Final verdict: Nike Game in Medium I liked them both for different reasons but there's something off in the shoulder fit with the Limited this year. Despite being the "athletic" fit it was actually worse.
Impulsively bought an Eagles Fuse jersey, don’t think I’ll regret it but definitely gonna buy another at the price I paid since I know it’s not stitched
Great and very clear review how is the fit of the fuse compared to the older style vapor limited. The game jersey always fits a lot bigger so I was interested in the fits thanks
I’d say best bet for anyone looking at the new FUSE jerseys is to go to your teams pro shop and look at them in person. The fit is different from the limited and the no stitching makes it seem lower quality but like he says in the video they are still the same material for the numbers. Personally I like the non FUSE limited for the stitching and fit and if you feel the same way I’d buy them while you can before it’s FUSE only
@@Gonzilla57 I just finally got one. In my opinion, they do in fact fit different than the old limited versions. The fuse limited seems a bit looser overall.
@@RealTennessteve I watched another jersey video after this someone with a Titans jersey and it's a limited and all screen printed. I guess only the vapor elite has stiching anymore Wich sucks they're really expensive lol too much greed for sure . The limited jersey has been awesome for so long
There are still some of the old stiched limited jerseys on nfl shop and fanatics.... i may grab several. It's bs they went to pressed. I don't care if they are still nice... there is no reason for them to cheapen the limited jerseys. So frustrating 😢
@@coreywilliam8474check nfl shop, fanatics for the limited vapor untouchable. Those are stitched. Otherwise you may have to get a knock off, I personally would not go that route.
A lot of us hand wash or delicate wash in a garment bag...then drip dry no machine. With pressed numbers and name plates I'd definitely do the above... or even hand wash.
You on the Fanatics payroll? To be honest, i think this might be similar to how the NBA jerseys are manufactured. The NBA ones have a thicker material, but its heat pressed. I just dont trust Fanatics with heat pressed products. Great video though.
@@martynwillingham152I think that NFL shop and all them are different than the pro shops cause I see availability in some jerseys in the bigger sites and no the pro shops. If one is n/a on nfl shop its not available on the fanatics, fan edge either.
I purchased a Ravens Limited FUSE from Fanatics but returned it… I didn’t like that the numbers had an inconsistent white outline that shouldn’t be there… The elite version doesn’t have any white outlines…
I wash my jerseys and just hang up to dry cause there 100 percent polyester material and that dries real quickly, u don't even need to dry them in a dryer.
You say it’s good material but when the numbers and names fall off like the nba jersey ones do after a few washes you’re out of the money you spent. Don’t put jerseys in the dryer ever it messes them up
If they made the Elites with the Limited sleeves, I'd own nothing but Elites. But with these options, I don't want any of them. The Elite jerseys look like I might as well put on tights and cleats.
I got mine at titans pro shop. I live out of state and I can never find any in person unless I am in Nashville. Burks would be sick. I feel like he is going to have a breakout year.
Brother that’s a Burberry shirt price Gucci and Louie if anything fails they reimburse they’re product bevy they stand behind them. Crazy to think they are charging us 200 for a lick em stick em jersey
The Elites are terrible tho. The collars are too wide and the sleeves are way too short. It's like they actually made it to be worn with shoulder pads. Smh
I wear a size M shirt and a M in these. The jerseys fit pretty well in all jersey types, the game and limited versions are not too loose or tight. I can even wear a hoodie underneath and still be comfortable. Its been a while since I have worn the legend version but from I remember it’s just like a t-shirt. I never tried on an elite version though so idk how those fit.
@@RealTennessteve Titans are cursed they will never go anywhere until they get out of those colors. You can't live off someone else...it's a curse.. Every year will be the same ish. Good luck though
Shame about the Chinese I have always found the numbers to be a lot smaller and the sizing is a nightmare. Last time I got a small it measured 46 in the chest way too big and the length it was like a dress lol
I understand. Pricing hard to beat but you get what you pay for. I got one years back and the detail was horrendous. Ik someone who got one recently and the numbers looked small and the small details were not good. Just my opinion though.
Is it worth it if I dont wear it constantly or wash it, Just hang it up in the closet and have it ready on game days? People are too critical about it not being stitched for the price but you just gotta take care of your shit.. Cmon
