The elite jersey looks sick. The game day one looks sort of budget to me.

I'd like to see the middle one. The 1st one if they are selling them like that most people already complained the sleeves are way too long.

I don't mind the Game version because it looks more like a workout shirt. I don't mind wearing a more fitted jersey unlike the stereotypical baggy oversize football jersey.

What I don't like are the stripes on the sleeve. It would look horrible. They should have left that on the Elite game worn versions and let us fans have a decent stripe.

Yeah, sounds like these jerseys are going to be tighter fitting. Agreed, they didn't fix the stripe though. Below is how I think it should look. If they are going to do elastic sleeves than it is tougher to get the 3 stripes on there but maybe move them up. Edit: doesn't look like enough room to. At least they should do that on the fan's jerseys if you aren't going to put elastic sleeves on them.

I was hoping they would come out with a "jersey shirt" thing for the fans version, but not happy about the sleeves. In the picture they provide the sleeves still look really long. I'm going to reserve judgement till I know more.

I hope they come out with some nice t-shirt designs though. Reebok's were completely underwhelming.

I like this shirt...


too bad they only sell up to 2xl.

the rest on this page are pretty blah so far. I'm sure a lot more will come out but not much to start with.

I'm still waiting for Mitchell & Ness to come out with a motherf**king 50s era Y.A. Tittle jersey (with the long-striped sleeves like their Nameth Jets, and Unitas Colts jersey releases in the past).

^^^ The Elites above will look horrible on the average fan without pads. It looks like an oversize women's "baby tee". Looks like an ex-girlfriend's shirt with short sleeves.

^ Depends on if you have big muscles or not. If so they will look better... Anyways, that's the player's version and I think they have had elastic on the sleeves for a while now. I think the elite's (authentics) are what the players wear on the field but I'm not sure they will go with the elastic sleeves... that might be player's only but the rest of the details should be the same.

We just have to be patient and hope Nike comes out with better shirts because last year was weak. The best looking 49ers shirt I saw was something that came out of Old Navy....lol. Reebok was weak. Be patient and let's hope this isn't the best Nike has to offer. Look at the whoring of their slogan.

You need a shirt larger than 2XL? How big are you?

And that shirt is okay I guess, certainly the best of the lot. I guess I'm just picky, but if I'm going to pay out the ass for NFL apparel I'm only going to buy one that I'm really digging.

Yeah, that shirt is the best so far but I wouldn't pay 30 for it. Like you said it would have to blow my mind for that much. And as for the weight don't ask It's Wisconsin, a lot of us are big. Nah, Americans get bigger and bigger every year.. I'd say the average male is close to 200 pounds compared to probably 180 50 years ago. Plus I am all about comfort... I could fit into a 2XL or a 3XL but I like baggy and comfortable... not skin tight.

found this... "Also, fifty years ago, the average male weighted around 166.3 pounds. Today, the average man's weight is 191 pounds." Honestly, people are taller, they work out more, they are bigger... to me 200-225 is common... guess it depends on the city/state. But bottom line I'm just surprised Reebok and now Nike doesn't go above 2xl. A lot of football fans are bigger.

Brooks' jersey is already customized to his liking, the authentics that we will buy will not be like that one fitting wise and probably won't have elastic on the sleeves.

I'm pretty sure all the player's sleeves have been elastic and the stripe has been that way since the 09 change. I agree though I doubt the elite (authentic) will have elastic sleeves though even though the rest of the details are the same.
