Just picked up this jersey from 2013 when he played the rams. 11 catches 180 yards and a TD. Scored the longest TD of his career this game 81yards!

Love it! Here's that jersey in action, you can see the mark on the upper part of the front 11(it ended up lighter from the washing machine no doubt!)

I hope the guy didn’t wash it! You can see the marks a lot better in person. I think the light and glare took some of the marks away.

That's funny! You should download that photo and get a good glossy version printed to display with it.(I've done that through Walgreens)

I trying to figure out what the best way to display it. I’ve seen some nice frames to put it in and yeah I want to put a couple game day pics in there too. Is framing the best way?

Oh heck yeah, the internet is full of different companies that sell jersey frames that also hold 1 or 2 8x10 photos, they look spectacular!

Incredible addition. I would also consider a mannequin for display.

Julio has been my favorite WR in the league for some time. Would love to have a piece like this in the PC. Gamers are in a league of their own! Very nice.

Thanks for the info Can anyone post a picture of their jersey on a mannequin so I can kind of get a idea what it looks it?

My place gets dusty very quick.
You dust a game used jersey often?

I keep all my game used jerseys in CLEAR suit bags.
That or frame them.

They are game used, so if they get dusty just shake the dust off.

First thing I do when I get a gamer, is to toss it in the dryer with a fabric sheet. This gets the smell out of them without hurting the look. And depending on how the team handles them, I have had some stinky jerseys.

Then I hang them out in the open. Just screw a hanger upside down on the wall. No mannequins for me. I find most of body only ones to be too short for a game used jersey. And I don't want the tail tags exposed to the ground, pets, kids or whatever.

They look like this when hung

The mannequins that I use go up high enough for all of my gamers. Several are very long and it has enough adjustment to work.

That room is badass!! Thanks for the info guys I think I’m going to go to a frame shop where I live and have a custom frame made for the jersey. A mannequin is just to big and don’t have the room to do that.

I had my custom frames done at Michael's during one of their sales. I was VERY pleased. They worked GREAT with me on exactly what I wanted.

An upside down hanger. I've never even thought or heard about that. I'll have to try that one. Probably the most cost effective way to do it
