I got outbid on this and i think i am glad. Why do patch cards look so smooth and yet some loopy like this? Where do you think this came from or do you think it is fake?

Could just be how the patch is from the jersey and partly due to it being a thicker patch. I don't think it means it was faked. Usually if a patch is faked you can tell by chipping along the edges of the patch windows and possibly some signs of glue. Hope this helps ya!I got outbid on this and i think i am glad.

I believe the Phils and the Cards have patches that are loopy (to use your word). Most patch material from most teams are a flat tackle twill but with respect to the Phils and Cards they are stitched like you see. I do not believe this is a fake patch. I think letter and logo are different than number patches as well.

Ahh. That's what he meant by loopy. Yes, the patch is legit. I never noticed the difference until you mentioned it.

The nameplate is done with a different material than the team logo on the front.

Everything in this thread is on point. The patch across the front of a few teams jerseys -- the Phillies, specifically, as I own a bunch -- are "sewed" on like that. It's not a flat material.
It's legit.
It's legit.
It also depends if its from the logo across the chest or the name/number on the back. I think most teams have the full-on loopy embroidery for logos, especially if it's something intricate like the Phillies script or a Cardinals logo, but the back patches would be the flatter twill material.

It's 100% legit. I'm not saying all patch fakers are smart but I don't think many would put a small patch on a Ryan Howard card. The logos and insane patches are the ones faked. Plus as everyone has said this kind of patch is from the Phillies home jersey and it's much different than the away Howard jersey you showed.

The loopiness is from the PHILLIES across the chest, which is the same on home and away. He showed a letter patch from the back of a road jersey... which is flat.

Astros had similar loopy patches for the team logo but flat for the name and number plates.
