The 1994 Jersey: A Unique Artifact
This particular jersey, worn only once during the 1994 season on September 19th against the Detroit Lions, is a testament to Aikman’s prowess on the field. On that memorable day, Aikman passed for 220 yards and a touchdown, further cementing his status as a football legend. The jersey features the Apex manufacturer’s tag on the front left tail, complete with an attached flag tag indicating the size “48”. The left inseam bears a flag tag with jersey materials and washing instructions, ensuring authenticity and care.
Distinctive Features

- Player Number and Name: The player number “8” is emblazoned in blue tackle twill on both the front and back, while the name “AIKMAN” is showcased on a blue nameplate in white tackle twill.
- Team and Player Details: The sleeves are adorned with the Cowboys team “Star” patch, the player number “8” in white tackle twill, and an Apex logo, adding to the jersey’s authenticity and charm.
Signature and Condition
Aikman has signed the back of the jersey in black marker, with the signature rating a strong 8 in our expert opinion. The jersey exhibits minor staining throughout, including the collar and back, indicative of its game-worn status. This jersey is properly tagged, was presented to us as game-used, and in our opinion, shows appropriate use. It is accompanied by an ALOA from JSA and an equipment manager LOA, which, despite some ambiguity, suggests that this jersey may have been a backup, though clear game wear is visible.
