ファン版 vs プレーヤー版
Two jerseys, same team crest — but built for very different people. Here's exactly what changes, in plain English.
TL;DR — 30-second answer
The Fan Version is the everyday shirt you see on 99% of supporters — softer, roomier, cheaper, printed badges. The Player Version is the on-pitch match kit — tighter athletic cut, lighter high-tech fabric, heat-pressed / woven badges, and a noticeably higher price tag.

👕 Pick Fan Version if…
You want the same look for daily wear, match-day in the stands, or a gift. You care about comfort, a relaxed fit, and value — not shaving grams off for a 90-minute sprint. This is what most buyers order.
⚽ Pick Player Version if…
You play competitively and want real on-pitch performance fabric, or you're a collector who wants the exact shirt the pros wear — athletic cut, premium finish on the badges, and are OK paying more for it.
Quick tip on sizing
The Player Version is cut noticeably tighter across the chest and shoulders — it's designed to sit close to the body during a match. If you like a normal, relaxed fit, order one size up from your usual. The Fan Version fits true to size.
Frequently asked questions
What is the main difference between fan and player jerseys?
The fan version (also called replica or stadium) is what most supporters wear — softer polyester, regular fit, and silicone-printed badges at a standard price. The player version (also called authentic or match) is the exact build the players wear on the pitch — lighter technical fabric, athletic slim fit, heat-pressed 3D badges, engineered mesh ventilation, at roughly 1.6\xC3\x97 to 2\xC3\x97 the fan price.
Does the player version fit smaller?
Yes. Player-version jerseys are cut tight through the chest, shoulders and waist because they are designed to sit close to the body during a 90-minute match. If you normally take size L in a fan version, most buyers order XL in a player version.
Are the badges different?
Yes. Fan-version crests and sponsor logos are printed with silicone or rubber ink — flat and durable. Player-version crests are heat-pressed, woven, or 3D-molded with laser-cut sponsor logos — visibly raised, sharper edges, more premium finish.
Which one should I order for wholesale?
For retail resale and club/team bulk orders, the fan version is the standard choice — better margin, wider size range, easier fit. Order the player version only when your buyer specifically asks for the on-field authentic build (collectors, specialty stores, high-tier custom kits).
Can I mix fan and player versions in one order?
Yes. Each version has its own per-design MOQ tier, but you can combine multiple designs in the same shipment. Send us the SKU list on WhatsApp and we'll confirm pricing per version.
