That would drive me nuts. Nice quality control NFL!FINALLY got my Vapor bone jersey. Overall a nice jersey. However, the NFL shield is crooked. This is a $150 Official from the Rams shop jersey. I have 4 other Vapor jerseys and none of them have any issues. Seriously, after this wait? Trying to decide if I return it or not. I think I have too or all always think about it.

Theoretically the exchange is on the way. Just got my cancellation notice for my AD Royal vapor yesterday though and I'm not shocked. Looked at the website and they aren't offered right now. The same thing happened a couple weeks ago with my Goff Bone Vapor but a couple days later they were offered again, I re-ordered and got it within a couple weeks (The defective one). Kind of like they cancel everything and start fresh? Anyways, I will keep an eye on the website. I want the AD Royal Vapor and will order it again if they re-appear.That would drive me nuts. Nice quality control NFL!
I would definitely exchange it!

It seems like all of the Bone jerseys have sold out on Fanatics website. Plenty of the Blue ones left. I wonder if that will factor into future jersey changes in the next couple of years
My guess is it is more than a little related to the fading number issue. Putting a solid yellow (or even white) and they could fix the discrepancy immediately...It seems like all of the Bone jerseys have sold out on Fanatics website. Plenty of the Blue ones left.

So I ordered the Vapor limited Royal Donald jersey the other day, thinking that was the best quality I could get. Little did I know that the Rams store at SoFi carries a Nike Elite line. Which is an "On-field" jersey. Supposedly exactly like what the players wear, minus custom alterations and the like. We made it to the store at Sofi yesterday where I was pleasantly surprised to see them. There are big differences, biggest being the fabric, which feels and looks like authentic jersey material, unlike the Vapor and game jerseys which are thinner and more suited for comfort and are more like commercial dri-fit. Also, the sleeves have elastic in them, like someone like Donald has, to snug them up under his pads. The shoulder horn is completely different than the Vapor or Game jerseys. On those two the horn is skinny and wraps straight down the sleeve seam under the arm pit. On the Elite the end of the horn is wider and actually ends on the sleeve edge. The elite arm horns are a completely different material than the Vapor and Game.
All three jerseys have the accents on the numbers, you know... the weird shiny edges and accents? On the Vapor and Game those accents are very "Rubbery" feeling. On the Elite, they are not at all. Completely different material. The sleeves on the Elite have a white Nike swoosh on them that is an actual sewn on patch. On the Vapor its embroidered and on the Game I believe its iron on. Last noticeable difference, that I noticed at least, was on the lower Nike tag on the lower left front of all jerseys. On the Vapor and Game they have the sizes there listed as "XL, L, M" etc.. On the Elite, they are numbered sizes "40" on up.
I went and checked Fanatics for Elites from other teams. There are a handful, MAYBE one or two for each team who has a big named player. The ones I saw for QB's like Brady don't have the elastic cuffed sleeved like Donalds, which makes sense. Of course this all comes with a hefty price tag, $325. $275-325 on Fanatics depending on the player. So my wife said "Look..... early birthday/Christmas present!". I struggled a bit between the jersey and an Authentic Speed helmet, which also were running $350. I ended going with the jersey, figuring that if I ever get AD to sign it it will be frame worthy due to the quality. Plus, the helmet I wasn't overly impressed with the quality. It had some bubbles in the lesser decals and the such. I thought I would detail the differences here, just in case anyone was interested in knowing.

Oh hellz yes. That Elite jersey looks amazing. I will be finding and buying one of those bad boys. I have two of the new game jerseys already. Love them, but the sleeves on that Elite look awesome.
