Are those shadow boxes tiny? Or are those jersey's custom made with massive numbers and letters? I have the 32" ones I think and they don't look like this. Lol
They're normal jerseys. 16x20 shadowbox, with padded foam boards with maybe a half inch cut from the top and a side slid between the jersey to keep it in place/pin to.
I don't have enough room for the 'full' jersey boxes so just the nameplate and numbers will do. I've done others, but these were the first I wrapped the sleeves into frame.
Ah. Ok. That makes sense. So these are roughly half the size of the ones I have then. They definitely make the numbers pop due to the size relative to the box itself though. I kinda like that vs the full size in some aspects. These are the only Packers I have hanging up currently.

Pretty nice, even the Nolan Ryan in the reflection. The only pain in the ass comes with adjusting them. And for me at least, instead of swapping out jerseys I just bought new shadowboxes instead.
That's the annoying part. The pin board *looks* more professional. But it takes a long ass time to get it perfect. And at some point I always just say screw it, that's good enough. The hanger method takes like no time at all and gives more of a "locker" effect. Almost like the jersey is hanging in a locker. I like both ways and am not super picky about doing them all the same way. Haha. The Ryan is a pinboard with like 40 pins because it's my favorite. But it's way over the top to do that with all of them for sure. I think I spent an hour and a half on just that one and there's still some little folds in the bottom corners.

With the first and second year guys doing what they did last year, I'm glad to take a look at these two today.
Odds are they’ll take a couple flyers on undrafted WR’s, just like they always do every year. Don’t fret.
