T-Mac Jerseys?

[tukafan21]

Hmmmmm, interesting

The team store no longer lists this as a pre-order item, but now says it will ship no later than June 13th.

I'd need it to get to me by May 28th to be able to get the picture with my Nephew that I want to get.  Now I really don't know what to do, as that seems like a CYA date and it very well could be shipped out earlier than that and I'd get it in time.

Honestly, it might sound dumb, but I've had this idea in my head of a specific picture I really want to get with him since draft night.

Basically I want it to be of the two of us sitting on the floor next to each other with the picture from behind.  Ideally it would have been with us both wearing T-Mac jerseys (and me wearing an Arizona hat that has block A logo on the back of it too), but since they won't have baby versions of those for a bit and that does seem like a waste of money on something he'll grow out of in a few months, I think I'll go with this that I've found on Amazon for like 12 bucks........

I'll get this made with T-Mac's #4 but then my Nephew's first name (which incidentally starts with a T, so I've already joked to my sister that she needs to change his middle name to something with "Mc" or "Mac" in it so i can call him T-Mac lol)

Just think that would make for a really cool picture for me to have of him at this age (just over 13 months now), with the two of us wearing our #4's.  It's the type of thing I can absolutely see myself getting it printed out by Shutterfly on one of those canvas like prints to hang on my wall.

And seeing as they live in NYC with me in Michigan, not sure the next time I'll see him again as I can't just drive on down the street for a picture when the jersey arrives, so was hoping I'd be able to take advantage of seeing them at the end of the month to get this picture, but it would all be dependent on the jersey (and this custom onesie) being shipped in time.

Or is it that the jerseys have just improved so much over the years that what is best for players to wear, may have reached a tipping point to where it's now a weird material/style for fans to be wearing?

oh Idc what the players wear, wear whatever is best for them but fans jerseys 100% can be made more durably than they are

Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size.

Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit?

These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in.

The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders

I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure.

(and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)

Not cool

The T-Mac jerseys were supposed to ship out by tomorrow, they've had it listed as such for a while now.  

But they just sent out an email saying they're being pushed back another 2 weeks, which is what it is.  But it's a bit of a kick in the nuts to then go to the team's site and see they have a 20% off sale going on right now, including on T-Mac jerseys.

So those who wanted it bad enough to order early have it pushed back the day before they're supposed to ship, and we get told that while you currently have them on sale, kinda a dick move Panthers/Fanatics.

At this rate, they're going to end up selling them in other colors or the better quality version before these even ship out, which was the only reason I waited a couple weeks before putting my order in anyways, so dumb.

lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet.

Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology.

Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped.

But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.
