Is the baseball jersey genuine

The pilling of baseball jerseys does not necessarily mean they are counterfeit. The pilling phenomenon is related to factors such as fabric material, wearing habits, and washing methods. Natural fiber blended fabrics, frequent friction, machine washing, and violent rubbing can all lead to pilling. The pilling of baseball jerseys is common in fabrics made of wool, cotton, or blends, which have shorter fibers and surface feathers that are easily tangled into balls through friction. Local friction areas such as backpack straps and seat belts are more prone to pilling during daily wear, which is not a quality issue. Some brands reduce yarn twist to maintain fabric softness, which increases comfort but also increases the probability of pilling. In rare cases, poor quality fabrics or process defects can lead to abnormal pilling. If newly purchased clothing has a large area of pilling in the short term and is accompanied by loose threads and uneven dyeing, there may be a problem of passing off inferior clothing as good. It is recommended to choose products with neat inner lining stitching and complete hang tag information when purchasing. When washing, flip them over and protect them with a laundry bag.

Daily care can reduce pilling of baseball jerseys, avoid prolonged friction with rough objects when wearing, use neutral detergent to wash by hand in cold water, and avoid sharp hooks when drying. If pilling has occurred, it can be treated with a ball trimmer and should not be torn directly. Choosing baseball jerseys made of long fiber fabrics or treated with anti pilling technology can significantly improve the problem, but it should be noted that excessive anti pilling treatment may affect breathability.
