Thanks for that! Yeah, I've ordered every home jersey from the Raider Image because of the shiny, reflective twill. But this is more promising. If only the Raider Image would sell custom away jerseys in size 40. :rofl:
Has anyone ordered a custom white Vapor Elite Raiders jersey from Fanatics? I know the twill is off on the home/black jersey, but since the Raider Image doesn't do custom white jerseys in size 40, I may have to order from Fanatics/NFL Shop. I steer clear because the home jersey is drastically...
The Vapor Elite are the ones with numbered sizes and cuffed sleeves. Those are the ones referred to as “authentic” here. They are also $325 and up. Vapor Untouchable Limited are stitched names and numbers, but the fabric is a lightweight material akin to a t-shirt. They run about $150. No cuffed...
That's hilarious. They must've posted the wrong price last night. I grabbed a white elite for $127 last night. They charged my card and my order is processing. They probably saw that Fanatics was selling them for $195 and upped the price to match
Unless you have a coupon for Nike's site, you will probably end up paying retail. Most of the sales happened before the draft. I doubt you'll find one without a coupon code before the season starts
No problem! Yeah, the Carr is actually a pre-made one from Nike, so it will be the correct silver. It's only the custom ones that NFL Shop/Fanatics sell that have the issue. You'll be happy with it. I love the Vapor Elites. Hoping that the Raider Image stocks some Jordy ones before the season...
I agree with what has been said above. If you’re choosing between white and black, go black. White jerseys beg for stains.
As for size 44, I just measured pit to pit and it is 23” and the length from the back collar to the bottom hem is about 30”
If you order a custom from fanatics, it will be garbage. Order from The Raider Image. They have multiple players pre-made, or you can order a custom. The custom ones are done by EPS who does the team, so the silver is accurate.
I wish! Haha. I picked up a TON on Cyber Monday with the 40% off coupon. And I usually get a new one every month or so since the vapor templates have been out.
The best thing about The Raider Image is that I will always be able to get an elite or limited jersey for whoever I want. Everything in this pic is either elite or limited and came from them. Hopefully the fanatics deal won’t hurt their customization deal with EPS.
Game - screenprinted
Legend - sublimated
Limited - stitched name and numbers, dry-fit fabric
Elite - same fabric/template that the teams are using. Stitched name and numbers, elastic sleeves
Ah... gotcha. That's interesting. I'll have to do some digging on that. I figured it was based on a team-by-team basis. That's something worth diving into for us jersey fanatics!
I’m not necessarily surprised they’d use the older stuff for only pics. The shield is throwing me off though. I can’t imagine that they liked the flywire enough to bring it back
This is an interesting pic. Rashaad Penny from the Seahawks doing a photo shoot. Looks like the Elite 51 style (flywire)... but that shield looks like the chrome shield on the Vapor template. Maybe it's just the lighting, and they're using the older templates for the photoshoots.
