    I looked around to see if there was a better place to post this but couldn't find one. I'm looking to buy a Jets jersey but I don't like the regular ones you see where the sleeves are very big and lose and go down to your elbows. I want the one with fitted short-sleeves like in the following picture (excuse the Favre pic):

    Anyone know where these can be purchased?

    The only difference really is that there is elastic on a real NFL jersey. Maybe add an elastic type band in the sleeve and sow it back up. Or buy a game worn jersey.

    Buy an XL one and a S one and swap the sleeves over and then try to find either a small muscular person or a big person with small arms to buy the one you don't need.

    I've never had one to begin with so tis is my first one. I just don't like to look of extremely baggy clothes.

    that pic of Tomlinson and Martin shaking hands has a fitted jersey on LT. It seems the players have these when not dressed for playing. They are much smarter than those really baggy jerseys.

    Buy a regular jersey and keep it in the dryer for 10 days straight.

    Authentic jerseys have elastic sleeves.

    I used to get my touch tackle jerseys altered by a tailor. They cut the excess material off the sides and bottom and put elastic in if you wish. It should not be very expensive.

    Authentic jersey instead of replica.

    And if it doesn't fit right, see a tailor. Just look up "alterations" in the yellow pages or something. Maybe craigslist too, I'm sure there's lots of people with a sewing machine and some skills looking to make money.
