Youth Lars Nootbaar St. Louis Cardinals Red City Connect Jersey
St. Louis · NL Central
With the Gateway Arch framed beyond center field at Busch Stadium and the iconic Cardinal Nation across the chest, this is baseball royalty.
The Game-Day Breakdown
- Classic button-down baseball front with smooth, evenly spaced buttons that stay flat
- Airy polyester weave that dries fast after a rain delay or a wash cycle
- Durable twill chest wordmark and back details that won't crack or peel after washing
- Youth sizing with a shorter body and sleeve that keeps the fit clean
- City Connect inspired palette
Stitching, Trim & Construction
The placket is stitched flat so the front does not curl after a wash. Buttons are smooth, evenly spaced and easy to work with one hand.
Cut, Drape & Ballpark Breathability
Cut for youth proportions rather than scaled-down adult sizing. The chest runs roughly 28-34 inches across the youth range, with a shorter body and sleeve so it does not swallow them.
The knit is light enough for July day games and dense enough to block a little wind in April. Moisture moves through instead of sitting on your back.
Ballpark & Streetwear Styling
The layering move is simple: tee underneath in summer, hoodie under the jersey when the night game turns cold. The relaxed cut leaves room for both.
It is the rare gift that works without knowing a favorite player. Team and color do the heavy lifting, and sizing is straightforward.
Notes from the product sheet
- Moisture-wicking knit pulls sweat away through nine innings.

Sizing, Care & Ordering FAQ
How does the Women's cut differ from the Men's/Unisex jersey?
The Women's silhouette is gently tapered through the waist with narrower shoulders and a slightly shorter hem so it doesn't feel boxy, while still leaving enough room to layer over a tank top or tee.
Are the buttons spaced closely enough so the front doesn't gap?
Yes. The placket uses reinforced flat-seam construction with properly spaced buttons across the chest and midsection, preventing awkward gapping whether you're sitting in the bleachers or standing up for a home run.
Do the stitched letters and numbers feel scratchy on the inside?
Not at all. While the exterior features crisp tackle twill with raised stitching for that classic stadium look, the interior backing is finished smoothly so it won't chafe against bare skin when worn solo in the summer.
Should I size up to wear a hoodie underneath for April or October night games?
If you plan to layer this jersey over a heavyweight fleece hoodie, we recommend going up one size so the shoulders and chest don't feel restricted. For wearing over a normal short-sleeve tee or solo, order your regular US size.

Care note: Cold water, mild detergent, no bleach. Air dry flat or on a hanger. A quick steam beats an iron if it comes out of a suitcase creased.
