A jersey frame is an excellent way to display your love for football proudly. Whether you want to show off an autographed jersey of your favorite player or preserve your old high school or college uniform, a jersey frame is what you need.
You can certainly keep your treasured jerseys safely tucked away in a drawer, but it’s better to show them off and keep them well-protected in a frame. The best frames are made with high-quality materials, keep your jersey safe and are easy to mount on a wall.
Before you buy any jersey frame, it’s best to ensure it’s big enough to hold the jersey you want to put in it. Football jerseys tend to be larger than other sports, so you should look for one with a sufficient vertical length. As a rule of thumb, a frame case should be at least 30 inches long and 23 inches wide.
A flat jersey frame looks identical to a picture portrait and can typically hold one jersey. However, a shadowbox frame is more suitable if you want to display other memorabilia along with your sports uniform. A shadowbox frame is essentially a thicker flat frame, so it has more depth and room.
Jersey frames come with mounting materials to you can hang them on a wall. Some only let you hang them vertically, but others can be positioned horizontally. The best frames come with a pin board and two hangers, one metal and the other wood, so you can display your jerseys in three ways.
There are jersey frames made with cheap plastic materials, but for your most treasured uniforms or as a thoughtful gift, it’s best to get one made with premium wood. Wood gives it a sturdy build and a sophisticated look, which is only made better with a fine finish in the color of your choosing. Popular finishes include matte black and mahogany.
Getting a frame with a lock is a good idea if you have a rare jersey or just want to keep any jersey safe. Some cases have anti-theft hinges, while others come with a key for opening and closing the door. A jersey frame with gold-plated anti-theft locks is the way to go for a premium look.
You don’t need to worry about UV protection if you want to hang your jersey frame in a basement or somewhere where the sun doesn’t shine. But if you keep your frame near a window, you will want the glass panel to offer UV protection to protect your jersey from fading.
