C-Squared Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 This jersey popped up on eBay as part of a former player’s private collection and I couldn’t resist snapping it up... felt like unearthing a time capsule!

Lights Out Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Those side panels would not have aged well at all, but that number font is perfect for the Giants. They should have kept it. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Is that the Joey Harrington Oregon jersey? Looks good, just not for the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Akronite- Posted January 29, 2020 Share Posted January 29, 2020 Is there a shot with the full side panel? Would not have aged great with it but overall not a bad look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yet it's a total upgrade over the Titans' current road jersey. Replace the red with columbia blue in that side panel, switch out the Giants logos on the sleeves and it totally looks like what the Titans should be wearing right now.

I'm pretty sure that's the exact number font Nike did for Oregon around that time period. 22 hours ago, -Akronite- said: Is there a shot with the full side panel?

I will snap some side panel shots when it arrives. 14 hours ago, Tracy Jordan said: And yet it's a total upgrade over the Titans' current road jersey.

Its funny you say that because the red swoosh immediately made me think of the current white Titans jersey. 9 hours ago, Cujo said: Soooooooooooo that's a knock-off Pro Bowl jersey The NFL jersey counterfeit market didn't really kick in until 03/04, well into the Reebok/NFL Equipment era. I've been buying/selling jerseys for about 15 years & I've never seen a counterfeit jersey from the 97-99 Nike NFL era tags, let along pro cut model.

I see where you're coming from, but this particular font fits with their logo while being appropriately classic and simple. It's more in the Bears/Texans category of custom fonts than the Bucs/Steelers category. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tBBP Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 And no, that is not the Joey Harrington-Oregon-era Ducks number font. That was a(n overly) modified version of Handel, and was much more round in shape: The NOB font matches that of the NYG Strahan jersey up above, reasonably ascertaining that the NYG jersey may well have been a legit prototype that got canned at the last second. (I have an original authentic Mark Brunell signed inaugural season jersey that in every way was the one they wore that season except for a slight difference in number font--they ultimately went with Wilson block numbers with the angled counters; mine does not have that particular font.) Total side note: good gosh those Oregon jerseys were ghastly. I didn't realize until now that they were that bad. Black (or really dark green) body, green sleeves, yellow side panels--sheesh. *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 That looks like an XFL jersey, either 1.0 or 2.0. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Honestly, it looks good, but I figure somebody there took a long look or two and realized this didn't fit the Giants at all.

There was no serif/vertical turn on the bottom left corner of the 9, to match the bottom of the Y. 2. There was no serif/vertical turn on the top left corner of the 2, to match the top left of the N and the Y. 3. There was no serif on the bottom right corner of the 2 (or the serif was curved, though this is probably the lesser option), to match the bottom of the Y. Hopefully I explained this clearly enough.

Sodboy13 Posted March 4, 2020 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Something like that just makes you like like you wanted to copy the Bears, but only had a freeware font.

Chawls Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 If anyone know what font the numbers are, I’d be curious to see how the rest of the numbers would look.
