This item is for the Ohio State Buckeyes football jersey pictured and described here. I won this in a charity auction in Columbus, Ohio in the early to mid 2000s, and it was advertised as an authentic game-used jersey. It is red, and the numbers and Nike and Ohio State logos are stitched on. The shoulder stripes are not stitched, but are some sort of shinier application.
I do not have any paperwork certifying it as such, but the fit is absolutely that of a game jersey and not a fan ...jersey. The shoulders are large to accommodate shoulder pads, and it is tight through the torso and at the arms so that tackling or holding is more difficult. It is very long from shoulder to waist (see photo, 36"+), and only about 22" across under the armpits - but the torso/chest is stretchy, with a couple inches of give there. So while it is a Size 50, it fits smaller than that, if one were to wear it. personally, I think it is better served for most people to frame, get autographed, or otherwise treat it as memorabilia, unless you've got just the right physique. :- )
There are a few other ebay items for sale right now that have the same design jersey for sale, and the seller (who bought them from OSU) dated them at between 1997 and 2001, which fits with the timeline when I acquired this one.
Please let me know of additional questions or photos needed. Shipped with USPS Priority Mail. Thanks!
