Athlete Tech Jerseys - Yuck!

Well, I finally got my jersey.

It only took a year and two separate orders.

I guess that's not too bad. Only problem is it's not really a replica jersey. Yes, it resembles BGSU's jerseys but it missed the mark.

They screwed up the brown streak that runs from arm to V-neck (same way on back). Funny thing is it doesn't look like the one they have on their website. Wish the Falcon head was more visible, but the real jerseys are about the same there I guess.

My opinion is to save a little money and go to SBX and get one of theirs. This has just been one big hassle after another. Anyone have one from SBX? How does it look?

I will give them credit for their other shirts, I ordered some of the t-shirts and they are really nice.

Here is my jersey.

I know others have had good luck. Not I.

Oh, and here is the one they have posted on their website.

I guess I can't complain, I have one and I will wear it proud. It's not too different is it?

I am heading up to BG next Friday for team photo day and Saturday's scrimmage. Hope to see some of you.

The one you posted and they one they have showing in their site look almost identical. The only difference is the color. However, if you look at our actual team jerseys in photos, they don't look orange either.

Just be glad you have a jersey with the stripe down the side from them

I will admit though, they are very slow business wise and don't respond to emails. They are also very inconsistent with the jerseys.

Don't get me wrong, I am very happy to have one. Just the stripe from arm to collar is messed up.

Like I said, I will wear it proudly.

Go Falcons!

I purchased my jersey from SBX, and I am very satisfied with it. It is fairly accurate when compared to the real jerseys, and it was $20 cheaper. Also, I understand SBX is also carrying the away (white) jerseys now, which in my opinion look a little better.

Can you custom your jersey at SBX now though? Athlete Tech jerseys are not 100% accurate, but I'd say they are 90% because of that armpit thing. Pretty darn close.

I know on our jersey before last if you got a "custom" from SBX it was just a pressed on number, not the shadowed numbers like we had/have.

Also, Athlete Tech offers women's jerseys which my girlfriend says fit much better than a bulky, large man's jersye. . .

I have a woman's fit and I am not pleased at all. I'd rather have had a regular SBX "men's" one... Just a size small so I don't swim in it.

Can you order the SBX version on-line? I went to their web site but didn't see any jerseys

I was in SBX yesterday. No white jerseys yet. Just a lame Falcons Football #4 t-shirt.

I wish they would let me designe some shirts for them!!!

I have gotten 2 from Athlete Tech, one before we changed our uni's and one after and I absolutely LOVE mine. I don't recall it taking that long to get them either. I guess I must have caught them at a not so busy time so they were able to get both of mine right out. I'm sorry that others haven't had a good experience with Athlete Tech.
