The removal of the weird tail was for sure the best change imo. If the batterman logo was normal with the name not as curved (aka a similar back to the old ones), I think it would've been infinitely better-received. Great review!
That “lobster tail” actually served a purpose for the players on the field since the jersey is meant to be tucked in. I think it actually makes it look like a replica now that it’s all the same material. That’s the least of my worries though, the name plates are horrid, the heat pressed logos are super cheap, and the overall quality is like a high school jersey.
100% agree. And fanatics has been doing some crazy sales too. It’s the perfect time to get one. I’m also a fan of the perforated look on the numbers. It gives the jerseys a modern-performance type feel which is obviously what they were going for
Nicely done brother. Congrats on the weight loss success. Keeping it off I see. Thank you for not hating on it as much as every other video on RUclips. Nike has been around for a while, and change is not always bad. As always appreciate your videos.
Thank you dude. I appreciate it. Been trying to keep the weight off hahah Yea I try to find the good and bad. But definitely true Nike has been around for a while, change is bound to happen. I appreciate the support man
I just got a Trout Elite 2024 on sale and to be honest its fine , I personally love the feel of them as I play Sunday league baseball myself , so any on-field jersey is always my choice. I love that the tail isn’t like years past and a size 40 fits me perfectly at 5’5 165 lbs. The collar had grown on me too
Thx for your review. I just snagged the Judge Elite jersey for 25% off. Your review helped me clarify the sizing - I thought 48 was a large but got a 44 bc of what you stated here. Jersey is VERY COMFORTABLE. $400 MSRP is a crime tho 😅
Not sure if you’ve done a vid on this (if so lmk) but can you do a comparison between M&N authentic, swingman, Nike Authentic and Authentic jerseys of the same size (e.g. all in a Medium or large…)
You should’ve had an older authentic on camera to compare it to rather than the same jersey but a different team. You’re just telling us the difference instead of showing us.
With regards to sizing, I’m 5’11 220. I currently own a Padres Limited series jersey it’s a M and fits perfect. Would I be best to go for a 44 in the elite you think? Not sure how it compares. I’m from the Uk so we don’t really have the jerseys to try on. Bought my last one at Petco park but wasn’t clued up on the different series at the time. Also, is it worth the extra over the limited? Cheers!
You know what brother I just figured out why the batteman is lower. It's because when they heat, press the name/ number they wanna be able to heat. Press the batterman on there too , which looks terrible
I was thinking...hmmmm why would they do that, move the batterman so low under the collar. I remembered that the Majestic factory/manufacturer had a separate person to do the batteman/stitch in onto the collar/heat press. So I realized yes....they are so cheap, they moved it so ONE WORKER CAN HEAT PRESS IT DOWN ALL AT THE SAME TIME, SO IT CUTS A STEP! They did it on purpose & called it a step in thier redesign. They can move it if they'd like, it's thier business but my money will stay in my wallet! I'd rather rock the True Fan copy jerseys from Kmart/Walmart back in the day that looked nothing like a mlb jersey than these new ones! 😅
For you haters I wore my 2007 Giants RuseeIl Authe tic awhile back. Yes it was heavier lol but I was drenched in sweat on a hot summer day at the ballpark just drinking beer lol. So I liked how you explained to haters that heavier is not necrdsarily higher quality. or better for the athlete. Fabric heaviness/type/quslity ids a whole debatable suject and not a simple issue. We need someone who lnows about performance clothes to weigh in here vs. yhe haters. I bought s Giants home bkank jersey today at their glagship stadium store and the $389.95 price was a sticjer shock for sure though. Ouch and LOL.
forreal. when I found my old high school stuff and realized how thick those things are its crazy. I have old russell runs too that are super thick. it's uncomfortable in the heat. there's always pros and cons to everything
Really sad to see the authentic MLB jerseys go. Huge dropoff in quality and it makes the market for the older authentic city connect jerseys that much more niche
@@JerseyConnect7 I need that road grey too but they also use a blue away jersey that they changed this year. It used to have a grey out line on the jersey which is now red.
Hey i just bought the same Aaron Judge Jersey. but the numbers and yankees logo color looks black but supposedly it’s a really dark navy blue those your Jersey look the same?
$400 for a $20 jersey Nike is charging and $500 for a $25 Jordan shoe Nike is charging. Then they are COMPLETELY stunned as to why people buy fakes. Excellent video!

yea thats true, thats the best change. If the ykept it like how you mentioned. Much better

I’m a huge jersey head, I was a huge hater on the new Elite jerseys, now I love them, they’re like super nice designer tops.
It’s definitely grown on me too

Lot of good perspective in here. I appreciate that you’re acknowledging positives and not just joining the hate discussion. Thanks!
Thank you, i appreciate it. I try to show the positives too

i need to do that
You should’ve had an older authentic on camera to compare it to rather than the same jersey but a different team. You’re just telling us the difference instead of showing us.
Thanks for the feedback. Definitely was gonna do that in a comparison video. This was just showing the new build
Great video. Great talking points. I think you might’ve convinced to pull the trigger on the Judge jersey. With a discount of course.
Good idea, better idea to get it on sale
Great video man,keep up the good jersey reviews!!
thank you bro
I’m just glad that our home jerseys don’t have a last name.😂 I still need a road grey to have all the Red Sox jerseys in my collection!!
Dude that’s awesome man. Hopefully you can complete it
With regards to sizing, I’m 5’11 220. I currently own a Padres Limited series jersey it’s a M and fits perfect.

Can you tell me the main differences between an authentic baseball jersey vs elite jersey and why elite jersey's are more?
Would be nice if they make the retail authentic not as long as the player version
that would be cool if they did
Are the new elite jersey perforated or solid fabric? It’s hard to tell on MLB website.

Really sad to see the authentic MLB jerseys go. Huge dropoff in quality and it makes the market for the older authentic city connect jerseys that much more niche
i think they messed up a bit on these runs
Did the blue away release or was it just the home jerseys that released
you mean road grey?
@@JerseyConnect7 I need that road grey too but they also use a blue away jersey that they changed this year. It used to have a grey out line on the jersey which is now red.
Yo, could you do a video on the 2000s Nike NBA jerseys real vs fake?
i'm not as versed on it but maybe in the future
Hey i just bought the same Aaron Judge Jersey. but the numbers and yankees logo color looks black but supposedly it’s a really dark navy blue those your Jersey look the same?
where did you get em from?
@@JerseyConnect7 from fanatics someone confirmed to me that it is navy blue but a dark blue
I still get confused on the name of the old jerseys 😅 like I know the replica is the lowest quality one. IDFK lol.
yea nike replica is the old one. and they used to do nike authentic
Yankees 🗽⚾️
$400 for a $20 jersey Nike is charging and $500 for a $25 Jordan shoe Nike is charging. Then they are COMPLETELY stunned as to why people buy fakes. Excellent video!
Nike swoosh got to go never liked it never will
they brand it right out in the open haha
