Total Soccer FactoryPro Soccer Referee Jersey

Perfect for youth soccer ref! They lasted through the season and still look brand new!

Everyone reading this knows that the official USSF supplier overcharges for referee attire, which is why you're here. Let me tell you, in comparison to my OSI yellow jersey, this green jersey is FAR better. The colors are vibrant, the side panels breathe well, and the pockets/velcro are all well sewn, and the zipper is great. The only thing "missing" is a couple of choice logos, which are totally unnecessary in all but the highest level games out there. My official yellow jersey has a floppy collar, no zipper, and the pockets aren't velcro tabbed. This green jersey is simply better in every objective aspect.As far as fit goes, I am 6'1" and 172lbs with a 42" chest. I ordered an Adult Medium (AM) and it fits perfect, although more "form fitting" than my much-too-large OSI jersey that billows in the wind. If you're more apt to go for trim/athletic cuts in clothing, this is a good option.

Just received this, and looks good and feels good. I like the mesh panel down the side. I'm not a super-serious referee, I just pick up games when I'm available so it didn't seem worth it to me to buy the $45 jersey from Official Sports. I'm 5'7" 160lbs and I ordered the small. It fits really well, quite a slim fit.I haven't actually worn it for refereeing yet, so don't feel comfortable giving all 5 stars since I don't know how it will hold up with sun, rain and sweat.

Excellent product. Light and airy

Exactly like the elite jersey I got from the ref store my association partnered with, same material and everything. Two velcro breast pockets that I use for my book and cards. Fits perfectly. I'm 6'3", 230lbs, and got the XL. It is just the right fit to tuck in.

Color - Spot on match to the OSI ones (see picture of side by side). I used the yellow one this Saturday all day and after the wash it looks brand new. Time will tell if it fades but so far no problems.Fabric - The new 2018 fabric is thinner than the now old double stripe style. I normally wear a base layer under my jersey and I would sweat a LOT with the old style. The new ones were much cooler and I didn't sweat nearly as much even though it was blazing hot. There isn't a lot of stretch to the fabric though, so if you are at the upper end of the size range I would suggest the next size up.Fit/Finish - The cut of the jerseys I received was dead on. I'm a 45" chest and the Adult Large fit just right. I was a bit concerned when I first got them with what looked like some bunching around the zippers but when out of the package they were fine. I'm sure the shipping process isn't particularly gentle. The stitching looks well done and good quality. Mine came with the velcro patch for your badge. The only real concern I might have is with the zipper, it works perfect but the teeth are really fine, I'm curious if it will hold up long term.Markings - This is a big plus for me but I understand not everyone will agree. These have no maker's marks or logos. I think the logos on the shirts from other makers look odd as they break up the lines of the shirt. The lack of logos makes for a nice, clean, and uncluttered look.Overall I am very happy with these. I have suggested to all the refs who haven't upgraded to check these out when they are ready to upgrade.

Looks like my more expensive "official" jerseys without the sleeve patch. I don't notice a difference in the material as compared to the economy version of the jerseys. I wash it in cold water, inside out, and then have dried it on low heat with no issues, although if I have time, I let it air dry. The shirt doesn't smell, even after several games in a day. Wears well and is tailored to reduce the material at the waist. Overall, a great value.

Great jerseys at a good price. Fit well, good materials. If you can live without the "official" patches, these are fantastic!
