Original or reproduction?

These are live eBay listings, so "1989" in a title can mean two things: a jersey made in 1989, or a throwback printed last month. The first thing to check is the maker's tag against who was actually making jerseys then.

A 1989 NFL jersey should carry a tag from team-by-team makers: Wilson, Champion, Apex One, Starter, Logo Athletic, Puma, Adidas or Nike. A different maker on the tag points to a later reproduction.

What does a 1989 NFL jersey cost?

As of August 29, 2026, the median asking price for 1989 NFL jerseys on eBay is $120, across 166 live listings. Across the last 15 days it has ranged $111 to $125. Era originals in good condition usually trade above that median. A claimed game-worn or rare original priced far below it is the classic counterfeit tell.

  • A Mitchell & Ness or Hardwood Classics tag means a licensed reproduction. A fine gift, not a 1989 original.
  • Ask the seller for photos of the neck tag and the wash tag. Logos, fonts and fabric should match the era.
  • The tag check has a limit: counterfeits copy the correct maker tag too. Price is the signal that scales. Real vintage doesn't sell far below every comparable listing, and a game-worn jersey priced like a t-shirt is neither.
  • The Era originals filter above hides listings that are newly made by their own description: multi-size runs, custom name and number offers, reproduction brands. What survives isn't guaranteed original. A one-off fake in a single size with the right tag passes every check a listing allows, which is exactly why seller photos and feedback still matter.
