I got 2 of the SB patches, one for my newer custom jersey (that's my good luck charm, won't have the patch sewn on until AFTER the SB for obvious reasons), and one for the rivals jersey I'm going to get when they have my size again

just cruising through fleaBay, and see an "error" jersey listed for sale.
The auction claims the official Pro Shops will not be selling jerseys with both the 50th patch and the SB LX.
I'm guessing unless you get a knockoff from overseas there will be no offering of the fully patched jerseys.

I've seen the plastic LX patch logos available, but nothing that comes close to the 50th ann. Obviously the USA 250 is embroidered.

Disappointed.

I guess I was one of the lucky few who managed the "error" jersey in blue. I was just wandering the store and they rolled out the rack. That being said it was only in fan vs any actual player.

I enjoy watching the feeding frenzy in the Pro Shop after games. This year haven't had any luck with jerseys, but found an awesome cap.

I was there yesterday and saw another jersey drop with player names, but they only had larger sizes available. No 50th patch on this batch, so the first one was definitely a misprint or error batch. It is pretty sad how much more Nike keeps raising the prices on the jerseys while removing quality. I remember when $150 was the limited with stitch names and numbers on the mid tier jersey. Now it's $160 for the lowest tier and the mid tier is also screen print name and numbers. That being said, knock-off jerseys look like crap. I can spot them a mile away, colors are always off, number and name tag sizes are usually small, green on the shoulder is usually super large and elongated with the nike swoosh not centered to the top. etc.

Yeah, I can't pull the trigger. The online Pro Shop had a small drop yesterday and I found one that was almost what I wanted. Ultimately, I rewarded my 'no purchase' decision, by ordering a nice Pelikan fountain pen :p

I believe the Hawks are winning this game. However, I’m not ordering any SB branded merch until after the game. LOL.

I did however order a nice blue throwback 12 jersey; Nike F.U.S.E Vapor, whatever that is. Fills a hole in my lineup.
After the parade I'm Seahawked-out for now. Of course that won't last long, since the first installment on tickets is in March :(.

I have relented to the jersey needs - back-ordered a Darnold superbowl patch Navy, and, like you, a throwback F.U.S.E. Vapor (Kupp) - I have a 50th patch to sew on. The Vapor arrived yesterday, and it's awesome - huge upgrade to the 'Game' style jersey. My other jerseys were a size big so that I could wear them over other clothing. These are 'just right' size, and the VAPOR fits amazingly nice. I highly recommend dishing out the extra bucks.

And now ... on to the Mariners.

I can't do the LX jerseys. Can't stand that over-colorized LX patch. I've just been buying the SB swag like the shirts, pullovers, caps...

I'm with you...as much as I loved the Super Bowl win, the colorized LX patch kind of makes the merchandise meh. 50th patch is so much better!

It is ugly. My thinking was that the Navy with that patch is the best tribute to Darnold leading the team to a Super Bowl victory.

Everything about this year's super bowl seemed like the nfl cheaper out.
I really believe fanatics/Nike didn't think the seahawks and Patriots were making the super bowl and sort of half assed it/are scrambling last minute.

Or sew it on yourself if you have the patience. Needle and thread also works.
I was going to do this and a friend suggested that I take it to a dry cleaner, since they do sewing repairs. You could ask for a sample of their work first.

Man, that's not just about patience, but quality of work / longevity of it, haha. I know if I tried it myself I'd do a horrible job no matter HOW long I spent on it.
I understand. I will show a concept soon if I remember. I have a shirt that passed its time. And I have taken the work to make sure it will live on. More coming from the guy that had to sew on his stripes to his uniforms for many years.

I don’t like that the jerseys in general at least year seem like a giant ripoff. When we fist swapped to the style we have i remember it was expensive but so damn worth it. A blue Nike Elite 12 fan Jersey. Every stitched, great thick material. My ex wife the c word she is toss it away during our divorce.. now? I can’t find it anywhere. Not even on Nikes site andnwose? It’s like they’re all labeled something to intentionally cause confusion so I don’t even know what to get that would the same now a days.nit annoys the hell out of me..I just want another damn one like it. I have a SB patch waiting to put on it dang it. Does anyone know what the comparable would be called?
Example: on field? Game day? “Limited”?

Tell me about it. I haven’t shopped for a jersey in a couple of years. Went into the Pro Shop, and was looking around. Not a stitched jersey in sight.

Asked where the Limiteds were.

Sir, these are the Limited.

If these are the Limited, how crappy do the Game look?

Could go Elite, but those have the elasticized sleeves, and look like crap, IMHO. That’s assuming you can even find them anywhere.

Pissed at myself for not buying a white Kam Chancellor Limited (old style with stitched numbers) while they were widely available.

Yup ever since fanatics took over it seems it’s just been a shit show of jerseys.. I’m tempted to trying my date one Chinese eBay one … can’t be worse than the bs fanatics sells like they did for the Sb

But yeah it’s been an absolute nightmare

I stopped by the Lumen Pro Shop today, looking for the bright blue sideline hat that MacDonald wore a lot this season. They finally had it in plenty of sizes: 7, 7 1/8, 7 1/4, 7 3/8 and 7 1/2. I wear between 7 1/4 and 7 3/8. The 7 1/4's were all bigger than the 7 3/8's. The 7 1/2 was just barely too tight for me. (I checked all of them). New Era can make really high quality hats, but these are really terrible. I'm surprised the coaches and players put up with wearing them.

Some of the NFL official gear is okay, but most is overpriced and not good quality. And the Seahawks still can't keep it on the shelf.
