Professional jersey mounting instructions for optimal display:
- Press or steam the jersey to remove any creases or wrinkles
- Trace the jersey over the included stiff insert board
- Cut the board to match the jersey shape
- Insert the cutout inside the jersey to keep it stiff
- Stitch the mounted jersey onto the back of the mat
Note: Following these steps prevents sagging and ensures your jersey maintains its shape for years to come. Insert board included with every jersey frame kit.

Custom team color mats make your signed jerseys and championship gear look amazing
Every Jersey Has a Story
Maybe it's the jersey your kid wore in their championship game. Maybe it's a signed piece from your all-time favorite player. Maybe it's the shirt you wore when your team finally won it all. Whatever the story, that jersey deserves more than a hanger in a closet. Our jersey shadow boxes are built specifically for this, deep enough to hold a properly folded jersey, wide enough to show the name and number, and finished with the kind of quality that makes the whole display feel like the real deal.
More Than a Frame, A Complete Mounting Solution
Most jersey frames ship empty and leave you to figure out the rest. Ours come with everything you need to mount your jersey like a pro, no trips to a frame shop, no guessing.
Every frame includes an extra mat board sheet that works as a stiffener for your jersey. Lay your jersey on it, trace the outline, cut it out, and slide the stiffener inside. That gives your jersey a clean, structured shape on the wall, no sagging, no bunching.
Then use the included pre-threaded sewing kit to tack your stiffened jersey to the backing board. A few simple stitches is all it takes. The kit comes with needles already threaded and a thimble, so even if you've never sewn anything in your life, you'll have it done in minutes.
Built for the Way Jerseys Are Displayed
A jersey display has unique needs. The frame needs depth, usually 2 to 3 inches, to hold the folded fabric without crushing it. The backing needs to be pin-friendly so you can position the jersey exactly how you want. And the whole thing needs to open easily, because you'll probably adjust the layout a few times before it's perfect. We've thought through all of this. Our jersey shadow boxes are built around how people actually display jerseys, not as an afterthought.
Add the Details That Matter
Triple Mat Benefits
- Pick your top mat, bottom mat, and backing color
- 165+ team colors plus black and white options
- Archival mats keep colors bright for years
A jersey shadow box is at its best when it tells the full story. Pin a ticket stub next to the jersey. Add a photo from game day. Include a team patch or a small nameplate with the date and occasion. Our shadow boxes give you the space and the flexibility to build a display that's truly yours, not just a framed shirt, but a complete memory.
Protection From Fading
Sunlight fades jersey colors over time. Our frames use framer's grade acrylic that blocks 99% of UV rays. This keeps your jersey looking bright for years. The 2-inch depth also keeps the fabric away from the acrylic surface.
Add a Brass Plaque
Add a brass plaque with custom text. Great for player names, jersey numbers, game dates, or special messages. Plaques are mounted on the mat so they don't cover your jersey.
Standard and Oversize Frames
Standard frames fit most jerseys up to 32x40 inches. Larger jerseys or wider mat borders need oversize frames. Our designer shows you the price for your exact size.
What Can You Frame?
Our frames work for sports jerseys (NHL, NBA, MLB, NFL), concert tour jerseys, high school and college jerseys, and personal memorabilia. Add a brass plaque to mark special dates or achievements.
Need Extra Room for Thick Jerseys?
Our Ultra Deep frames offer 3.5 inches of depth, our deepest option by far. Perfect for heavy game-worn jerseys, layered displays with equipment, or stacking a jersey with photos and a nameplate at different planes.
Questions we hear most
How should I fold my jersey for a shadow box?
Most people fold the jersey so the name and number on the back are visible, with the sleeves tucked behind. Some prefer to show the front with the logo and crest. There's no wrong answer, it depends on what part of the jersey matters most to you. Our pinnable backing makes it easy to try different layouts.
Will a shadow box protect a signed jersey?
Yes. Once enclosed in a shadow box with UV-protective glazing, your signed jersey is shielded from dust, handling, and the UV light that can cause ink and fabric to fade over time. It's one of the best ways to preserve an autographed jersey.
Can I add other items alongside the jersey?
Absolutely, and we encourage it. Ticket stubs, event photos, team patches, trading cards, and small nameplates all work beautifully alongside a jersey. The extra context turns a framed jersey into a complete story.
What size shadow box do I need for a jersey?
For most adult jerseys, a 32" x 40" or 34" x 42" shadow box works well. Youth jerseys can often fit in a 28" x 34" frame. The right size depends on how you fold the jersey and whether you're including additional items in the display.
