Seeking testimonials on the Athlete Tech jerseys

6'4", 200 I have the "old" version of the jersey I bought last year and an XL was good.

We may all be big but we all must look in the mirror and see the difference...

Athletes lift weights and put on games for us. We go to their games and get fat tailgating before hand

6-3/335 here.

I ordered the XXXL and it was fantastic for the Marshall game (t-shirt, sweater, tan BGSU windbreaker, orange BGSU windbreaker all underneath my #21 jersey). It also looked fantastic in Norman in September. Hope it looks good in Hawaii in December.

I ordered the XXXL thinking I might shrink it when I did laundry (I can shrink anything). So far, no shrinkage (waiting on you Seinfeld fans....)! But man am I glad I did order a size larger when it came to the Marshall and UT games!

I have my eye on a higher number that better reflects my size.

I ordered a jersey from AthleteTech. I won't and can't comment on the size. One because I don't measure up to the sizes stated in this thread (guess I am a DB or WR). Two, I haven't received my jersey yet.

Their website states shipment in 2-3 weeks. So I ordered mine 4 weeks ahead of homecoming so I could wear it there. I called and they told me they were behind and it would get to me in about 2 more weeks. Well here I am having ordered my jersey 11 weeks ago and still don't have it. I may call and cancel since Corey mentioned he may switch numbers for next year. Yipes! If not, anyone interested in a new in the box #18 jersey?

Freak told me you can't beat the quality, but is it worth it when you miss a whole season because they cannot deliver a jersey in their stated time frame? And the kicker is they charged by Visa 11 weeks ago.

This makes me nervous. I'm hoping to get one in time for the bowl game.

They definitely don't come in a box. Mine came in a mail envelop/bag thing. It was part way open too. I do remember it saying 2-3 weeks to ship and mine took a little over 5 to get here. 11 is one hell of a long time and I would be thinking about cancelling that too. I just got an email from them the other day saying they are adding more schools everyday. I don't see how they will be able to handle that if they can't even handle what they already have.

And Schad, I mentioned I got a 2XL and it really does fit fine. We are close in size so I would go with that. I've wore it over hooded sweatshirts and stuff and it still fits great. It is really up to you though

If you CAN cancel, and he's changing numbers, I'd suggest finding out which number ASAP (though I guess you'd have to cancel ASAP, too). If you're putting a name on the back, they supposedly can't print jerseys for current players. If he's gonna change numbers, they wouldn't know he was a real player with that number until after next year's roster comes out. I think I remember Brad Williams' dad (who posts here occasionally) having problems with that, having to print his own name on a generic jersey.

Good luck!

I found them to be very good, they answered any emails that I sent them. I'm 6' 215, and got a L it fits pretty well.

As far as the team we seem to be assembling, I'm pretty sure we've got the OL sorted, perhaps some DBs. I'd offer to play, but I better check with my old lady first...

Here's a funny suggestion. Let's have everyone's height and weight placed right under their screen names on the left. Falcon52 - 6'1" - 255

This may go down as the heaviest thread in Ay-Ziggy-Zoomba history.

Maybe Grant could add that for us!! I am fine with it just saying Behemoth Falcon but if we all had our height and weight I'd be pretty funny.

And if I was able to play football, I would want to be a part time O-Liner...aka Tight End. I need to catch some passes so the fans (mainly the ladies) like me!

I go about 5'11", 220. I ordered two at XXL cuz they fit perfectly when needing to pack on layers underneath in the cold. When it's not cold, they still fit well....
SF, If you wanna get it in time for a bowl game, I'd be ordering at this moment. Jim, the owner, says 2-4 weeks but I've noticed it's always closer to 4 weeks.

We should team up with McMetz and just scare the crap out of the UT fans next year at the Doyt.

My dad was with the TPD for over 30 years and when I got older I went on a few ride alongs with him, my dad at 5'11" continued to prove to me that even in his later years, that "its not always the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog".

Maybe TJ, but I'll take the Rottwiler over the Chihuahua every day...unless the Chihuahua is rabid.

Crazy beats big every time...
