Other manual verification methods
-
The UJ authenticity patch
Each UJ jersey has an integrated authenticity patch.
This patch identifies an official UJ jersey.
Points to check for the patch:
- Make sure it is present
- Check the quality of the embroidery
- Check the information written and the quality of the text. It must be similar to the image above
A missing or poorly reproduced patch should be considered suspicious.
-
Jersey quality
UJ jerseys are designed to offer premium and durable quality.
Several elements allow you to identify an authentic jersey:
- A thick, lightweight & resistant fabric
- Clean and solid seams
- Sharp prints
- No visible defects on the patterns or finishes
A jersey with poor quality or significant defects may be suspicious.
-
The quality of embroidered logos
Embroidered logos are produced with a very high level of finish.
Points to check for embroidery:
- The collection patch should have a slight raised effect
- The collection and character signature should be very clear
- The threads should be clean, regular, and well integrated into the fabric (turn the jersey inside out to better observe the embroidery)
- Turn the jersey inside out and check that there is a protective fabric over each embroidery.
A poorly embroidered, blurry, or irregularly threaded logo may be suspicious.
