Football Jersey Update

We've sold a lot of jerseys today. We'll be moving the jerseys that remain in store to our online catalog over the next 2 days with everything being complete by the end of the day Friday. If you click the specifications tab in the item listing it will show you what's available and what has been sold. We've received a lot of phone calls inquiring about number 53. We never received any.

For those interested in wearing a Michigan State University Authentic Football Game Jersey, here are some helpful tips to find your correct size.

  • Overall these jerseys are designed to be worn tight over the player, so most of the sizes equate to small or medium men shirts.
  • Generally speaking size 38 to 42 are smalls, 44 to 48 are medium and 50 to 52 are larges.
  • These number represent the circular chest length at the armpit level.
  • The jerseys have stretchable fabric that runs down the sides of the jersey that allow for expansion to fit larger while being held tight across the wearer. This is how large players can wear a "small" jersey.
  • Next the number are Three Letter combinations that represent the style of the arm of the jersey.
    • ##L is for linemen, which has shorter arms that are designed to hold and go underneath the shoulder pads.
    • ##QB is a standard size jersey but the elastic in the arms has been removed.
    • ##S represents the skill position jersey where the arms are a bit longer but still have elastic
  • Overall even the standard length jersey has substantial length to the bottom of the jersey that would allow for easy tucking in as desired.
  • Length +4 adds approximately 8 inches to the length of the jersey.

Thank you for supporting MSU Athletics and the MSU Surplus Store & Recycling Center.
