Fake vs. Authentic Ravens Jersey (necks)

The one area that is most obnoxiously off is the neck and shoulders of the jersey. You can see where the authentic neck, NFL Equipment badge, and shoulder fabric meet at the same line, and how it differs from the fake. The fake jersey shows the neck coming to a point, the shoulder fabric cutting the neck higher up, and the NFL Equipment badge sloppily applied.

 

The embroidery of the word Ravens is incredibly poor on the fake, and set way too low from the neck. You can also see how high the numbers on the authentic are neck near the neck line and how the fake sets the number much lower.

 

Finally, the NFL Equipment badge is a complete re-creation with very little attention to detail. There's a huge difference in the number of stars in the NFL logo, the badge is wider, and the embroidery is simply sloppy. One thing to note is also how the authentic jersey have this badge affixed using a clear thread. The fakes use white thread.
