nike bengals jersey, looks legit but not sure

I got my girl and I new nike bengals Dalton jerseys. They look legit to me but I'm not to familiar with these. I looked over the nike elite thread and it looks pretty much like the manning one. Here's some pics and my take.

Let me know if I need to take any better pics and of what specifically. Thanks ahead of time for your alls input. Hope these are legit. Oh her's is pretty much identical except different colors but doesn't have the tag on the inside and doesn't look like it was ever there???

Upon further inspection I am beginning to think it is a knock off (a decent one, but fake nonetheless). Here are some better pics. The rubber logo's stitching looks a little off too me.




Oh and sorry I didn't realize people were asking for authentication for nike's in the reebok section. Think I still may keep it

Yep - 100% fake, I'm afraid.

Thanks, is it a fake of the elite? What gives it away for you. The stitching on the nfl logo? Anything else? Thanks again, this site is nice.

Counterfeiters always target the highest level of replica jersey, so yes it's supposed to be an elite (same as they always replicated Reebok authentics.)

The black material in the numbers looks shiny, and the seam connecting the body sections looks too obvious. However the biggest giveaway is the jock tag at the bottom. It just looks wrong. The easiest thing to notice is that the numbers in the size (e.g "56") should be raised, but they're flat on yours. If you look under the "latest pick-ups" section, you'll see pics of my Bucs Freeman (which came from NFLshop.com) I have a close-up of the jock tag there, so you'll see what I mean.

I see, thanks again man. That is a nice jersey. I see the raised size number you're talking about. Another thing I noticed is the flywire around the neck. On yours it looks like stitching with a coating of some sort over top of it, where mine just looks like some rubber material made to look like it has stitching under it, but there is no thread there...lol well I think I will keep it for 30 bucks.
