Help Confirming Authenticity of a 94/95 Home Jersey from EBay

[BlueRover95]

Hi, hoping to take advantage of the collective knowledge in this room to understand what I have on my hands. My first foray into the EBay market has yielded me a 94/95 Home Jersey to hopefully replace my old one. However upon receiving it I'm a little skeptical of its authenticity.

 

My main concern is the sponsor. My old jersey had a raised white background with indented red lettering, however the new to me jersey has raised red lettering. The other standout difference is the buttons. My old jersey had no markings on the buttons, the new one has "asics" in raised lettering.

Anyone know if these are different print runs, if the size difference (S->L) impacts what I've mentioned or if the new to me jersey is just a decent fake? Happy to post other comparisons if they help.

Thank you!

Also if this is the wrong location to post this happy to move it somewhere more appropriate.

I'm no expert mate but ironically, based on the info you have provided and if I looked at them together without knowing which was your 'original', I would have said the one without 'Asics' embossed on the buttons would be the copy.

The one you've just bought looks close enough to me.

Yeah fair enough, appreciate your analysis putting me on the right track. I'm just happy I have a shirt to wear that fits! Cheers

I have a bootleg one from DH Gate, interestingly it matches your original.  The red lettering is indented, and there's no asics on the buttons.  So if your new one is a bootleg, it's not from there, or at least not that seller.
