This article was originally published on Total Pro Sports.

A patch commemorating the U.S.’s 250th anniversary will make its debut at the Super Bowl on the uniforms of the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks.
The NFL, NBA, NHL, Major League Baseball, NASCAR, Major League Soccer, UFC, and WWE, along with the White House and Fanatics, unveiled the USA 250 patch on Friday. Fans were already upset about the jersey change for the big game. Now they have an even bigger reason to be upset.
Fans of both Super Bowl teams have taken to social media to complain about their jerseys. Super Bowl jerseys are supposed to be the best of the best. The details in them should be top-notch. That is what many of them thought they would be getting when they ordered them from Fanatics ahead of the game at Levi’s Stadium.
X user @smsugar40 took to the social media site to show off their Seahawks jersey. The jersey looked cheap and low-quality overall. A picture of the Patriots’ Super Bowl jersey was also shown. It did not look any better.
In fact, the overall look of the Super Bowl gear for both teams, which also included caps and hoodies, seemed to lack quality.

Seahawks and Patriots Fans React To The Low-Quality Super Bowl Jerseys

We are less than a week away from Super Bowl 60. It is a game with two unlikely opponents that not many had making it to the big game.
With ESPN’s Football Power Index giving Seattle the edge in the matchup, the opposing fan bases have issues with memorabilia. Jerseys in stores and on the Fanatics website are looking low-quality.
Here is how many fans have reacted to it:
“Fanatics currently a top 10 crime against humanity and we have A LOT going on,” one fan said.

“Products everywhere are getting cheaper and cheaper. Nothing is designed to last anymore in our consumer society,” a second fan wrote.

This is certainly something that Fanatics needs to address in the future. Kickoff for Super Bowl 60 is 6:30 p.m. EST.
