The Player version might be a bit more expensive, but is it any different quality wise? The short answer is no. The main difference is whether the jersey is designed for field play or normal wear.

The Player Version is exactly the same as the ones we see players wearing on the field. There is a notable difference in the fabric, which is extremely lightweight and stretchy. This fabric is designed to be breathable, with many tiny holes to allow for ventilation. And, the sweat-wicking feature of a player version jersey keeps moisture away from a player’s body, while the fabric dries more quickly. The badges and sponsor logos are rubberised and heat transferred, which creates a more seamless look and is lighter weight for players on the field.

The Fan Version is designed for comfortable, everyday wear. The fit is more relaxed, so you can show your support in the stands or out on the street. Unlike the player version, this fit is better for most body types, even ones that haven’t been out on the field for a while. The fan version has the same badges as player version jerseys, however, they are embroidered on, so they have a weightier look and feel.
