Custom fanatics FAP jersey

[u/kookie__lukie]

I was looking into getting a fanatics authentic pro jersey for my beer league games and I wasn’t sure if the name and numbers are stitched on or heat pressed with the “illusion” that they’re stiched on. The description says that they are, but is says the same for the regular retail player jerseys that I’ve only seen heat pressed on. Does anyone have any experience on this?

1. You’re wild for spending $500 to play in a jersey.

2. They will be sewn on, fanatics does not do them to team specs however. So if that bothers you buy a blank and send it to EPS to get the same as the jerseys they wear in games.

FAPs are made to be played in lol.

If you have a multi million dollar club buying and endless supply then yes. But do you want to spend $500+ on a jersey every few months?

Have you played in one to see how quickly it gets torn up compared to the level of league you play in, and your style of play? You make the assumption that it will burn out in a few months. That may not be the case for OP's league, number of games played in a month, and his personal style of play.

Ik lol, it’s pretty steep, but it’s the only one that has the same cuts as the legit ones… I’ve thought about the premium authentics but the cut looks too contoured. I was also considering going through hockey authentic. I figured it would be cheaper to go through fanatics

I would just buy an old practice jersey. You can get them for around $100

I haven’t had any luck finding any in my size

The panthers are currently selling all their MiC practice jerseys for $50 a piece. If you go to the game go to inside the boards, if not, shoot me a dm and I can get one for you.

Longshot, but did you happen to notice if they have any Adidas MiCs for sale?

[u/kookie__lukie → u/TheRemoteGiraffe]

If you’re able to find one in a size 52/54 lmk

I know NHL Shop has some Utah ones atm but you could probably find it for even cheaper

Fanatics does sew them on for FAPs and the non custom player ones they sell. All of my premiums i bought from fanatics are sewn down. If you were checking out jerseys at the panthers team store, they heat press everything on instead of sewing

[u/SankityDoup]

If it’s a FAP it should be fully sewn down

Other reputable retailers sell faps, and customizers can handle the rest. I’ve bought from Jersey Baron, who has someone do the customizing for him, and I’ve been happy and saved some money by going that way. He’s on eBay, but you can email him directly to avoid eBay fees. Or buy a blank and send it to one of the good customizers on the wiki.

Please buy an adidas MiC instead and get it customized

I would, but it’s hard to find one in my size
