Design and Craftsmanship
The jersey is a masterful creation, featuring the Sand-Knit manufacturer’s tag, size “42,” prominently displayed in the rear neck.

Across the chest, the bold lettering “DE PAUL” is emblazoned, with the player number “10” displayed both below and on the back. The player name “PATTERSON” is elegantly arched across a white nameplate on the back, all numbering and lettering painted in striking blue on red.
