Counterfeit Rivers (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 Rivers Throw Back with straight cuffs (instead of cinched). This jersey would likely lie nicely on the shoulders. Normally the cuffs are a dead giveaway. On this jersey, other things tip it off.

NFL SHIELD COMPARISON
Note the better detail on the left. Stars are much more sharp. Lettering is consistent. No frayed edges or applique material.
It should be noted, however, that this fake's football does have detailed grip stitching. Most fakes do not.

(ABOVE) all Counterfeit (HORRIBLE Reebok Logo)

(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. Also note the length-wise direction of the white jersey holes around the bolt. Real AUTHENTICS run the other way, with/parallel to the bolt, not against it. So, even thought this one is pretty nice, it's a fake.

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, thinner, sharp text and logo. The FAKE tag on the right says "Made in China". Reebok does not make AUTHENTICS in China. AUTHENTIC material composition is different. The neckline ribbon is pretty good on the fake, but more bold and less sharp (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) -- In fact, look how seller hid the sleeves. Interesting.
