Counterfeit Tomlinson (48) with Staight Cuff
Comparison of Authentic Reebok and Fake San Diego Charger Jerseys as Examples

Below are pictures of another counterfeit so you can learn how to spot differences. It is a Tomlinson Home Jersey with straight cuffs (instead of cinched). This jersey would likely lie nicely on the shoulders, though the shoulders do look rather square. Normally the cuffs are a dead giveaway. On this jersey, other things tip it off. This is the only dark blue FAKE of the four that I have, and I do not have an AUTHENTIC in hand to compare it to. It's a rather nice fake, using a three cloth bolt, with color-matched stitching. The tags, for one, made this one a dead giveaway.

NFL SHIELD COMPARISON
Note the better detail on the left. Ball has grip, stars are clear. Lettering is consistent and sharp. No frayed edges or crooked stitching.

(ABOVE) all Counterfeit (horrible stitching around outer ede of bolt -- poor cutout)

(ABOVE) all Counterfeit - Actually pretty nice stitching on this FAKE

(ABOVE) Counterfeit - Notice poor spelling (three words: Internatonal, trademaiks, Foetball), fuzzy letters, and inconsistent letter height/type space. Though not shown well, the hologram has a grainy texture, is not sharp, and only has NFL and N (NFC) helmets on it. It should have N (NFC), A (AFC), and NFL helmets.

(ABOVE) Counterfeit - I wonder if this tag was stolen from a factory, because it is perfect

(ABOVE) all Counterfeit - The biggest tell is the cuffs. They sleeve should not be cinched by the cuff. It should taper cleanly to the cuff. I also understand the stitching on the Bolts should be TRIPLE STITCHED and that the mesh holes should run horizontally instead of vertically. But notice, this is a good looking Counterfeit, but just not the same as the AUTHENTIC.

NFL EQUIPMENT TAG and RIBBON COMPARISON
Note again the better detail on the left. The reebok logo is clear as is the football. The silver ribbon on the neckline has clear, sharp text and logo. The tag on the right doesn't even read where the jersey was made, which is different than any other fake I have. The neckline ribbon has bleeding text and the ribbon itself is not as smooth/fine threaded as the REAL Reebok ribbon

Here are the pictures of the Counterfeit from the LISTING I bought from (from a few feet, no visible problems). I asked for a STRAIGHT cuffed version, and he sent one, but sent the wrong color (dark blue instead of throw back). Like I said you never know what you're gonna get
