▸■FAQ / asked and answered

Will a Detroit Lions blue jersey still look right in two seasons?
That depends mostly on how you wash it. Cold, inside out, air dried, and a blue shirt holds shape and colour for years.
Does this jersey need ironing?
Rarely, and never hot. The blue knit drops most creases once it's been hung for an hour, and a hot iron straight onto dyed fabric is how you get a shine mark.
Does the number peel off this jersey?
Not on this one. The name and number are stitched rather than pressed on, so there's no edge to catch or lift.
Does the jersey fit the same in every colourway?
Yes, since sizing comes from the same drafted pattern across the Detroit Lions range rather than being re-cut per blue colourway.
What if the jersey is too long in the body?
That's the trade-off with a relaxed cut, and it's why the hem sits over jeans rather than at the waist.
How do I measure for a blue jersey at home?
Take a Detroit Lions shirt that fits well, lay it flat, and measure across the chest from one underarm seam to the other. Compare that single number with the table above.

▸■More notes

Size
The fabric has a bit of movement in it, so a blue Barry Sanders Detroit Lions shirt doesn't feel like a paper bag.
Make
Mesh panels are set under the arms and across the back of the blue jersey, where heat actually builds.
Wear
It works under a jacket for a Detroit Lions away day and on its own for a barbecue.
