Youth Washington Nationals Scarlet Alternate Jersey
Washington · NL East
From Half Street in Navy Yard to the seats at Nationals Park, the Curly 'W' represents baseball back in the Nation's Capital.
The Game-Day Breakdown
- Button-front design that works as a light layer in April and a standalone shirt in July
- Breathable double-knit mesh polyester that handles muggy July day games
- 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
- Custom name and number added per order
Stitching, Trim & Construction
Rounded hem, clean sleeve openings, and reinforced shoulder seams. The small stuff is what keeps a jersey in rotation for years.
Sizing & On-Body Feel
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.
From Tailgate Lot to the Upper Deck
Tailgate uniform: jersey, shorts, sneakers, cold drink. Nothing else needed, and it works from the parking lot to the upper deck.
For the fan who already owns everything, a fresh colorway is the safe move. It adds to the collection without duplicating it.
Notes from the product sheet
- Moisture-wicking knit pulls sweat away through nine innings.

Custom Name & Number
Pick your size, add the jersey to the cart, then type the exact name and number you want in the order note box at checkout. We confirm spelling before production because lettering is applied per order and cannot be changed once it is sewn.
Tip: keep names to 12 characters or fewer for the cleanest back panel.
Good to Know Before You Order
Can I customize this with a retired legend's name or my own nickname?
Yes! You can request any current player, throwback legend, or your own last name and lucky number in the checkout note box. We double-check every custom layout before stitching.
Can a petite adult or woman wear a Youth Large or Youth XL jersey?
Yes — this is one of the most popular sizing hacks among baseball fans. A Youth XL typically fits similar to an Adult XS / Women's Small in the chest (~38-40 inches), with slightly shorter sleeve and body length.
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.
Wear it to the next game
Choose a size and check out. It ships fast and arrives ready for the first pitch.
Care note: Button it up, turn it inside out, wash cold on gentle, and hang it to dry. Skip the dryer. Heat is the enemy of stitched lettering and bright color.
