Youth Washington Nationals Navy 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.
What You Get
- Full-button front placket so you can wear it buttoned up or open over a tee
- Mid-weight knit with a smooth finish that holds its color season after season
- Cleanly proportioned team graphics with raised stitch detailing
- Youth sizing with a shorter body and sleeve that keeps the fit clean
From Tailgate Lot to the Upper Deck
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.
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.
Breathable polyester with a smooth face and a soft hand. It resists wrinkles in a duffel bag and dries fast on a hotel towel rack.
Closer Look: Placket, Twill & Seams
Chest lettering and back numbers are applied in a stitched tackle twill style. Edges stay sharp, and the color does not crack the way thin prints do.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
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.
Does this jersey have a straight bottom or a rounded baseball hem?
It features the traditional rounded droptail baseball hem with a clean woven locker tag at the lower left front, designed specifically to look sharp worn untucked over jeans or shorts.
How do I wash this jersey without ruining the twill numbers?
Button it up completely, turn it inside out, and machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Always hang it to air dry — never use a hot dryer or iron directly over the lettering.

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.
