YearJersey

Type a year, find every jersey from that season

Visit

Type a year, get the jerseys from that season.

YearJersey searches live eBay listings by year across the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL, soccer and more, then adds the things a marketplace won't tell you: who won that season, who actually manufactured the jerseys that year, and how to tell an original from a reproduction.

Built for birth-year gifts, championship throwbacks, and the shirt you can't stop thinking about. Free, no signup, no ads, no tracking.

Features

Year-first search — enter any year from 1950 to now and see what is listed right now, filtered down to real jerseys rather than trading cards and memorabilia.

Almanac layer — every year page leads with who won that season, with era-correct team names, so you start from the jersey people actually remember.

Maker eras — who made jerseys for each league in each period, so a tag can be checked against the year a listing claims.

Dating guides — full identification guides for the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL and soccer, plus a router that starts from the one detail you can see on the shirt.

Era-originals filter — hides listings that describe themselves as newly made: multi-size runs, custom name and number, reproduction brands.

Market context — the median asking price for that year and league, dated, with the number of live listings it is drawn from.

Use Cases

Buying a birth-year gift — pin the gift to one exact season instead of a decade, and see that season's champions on the same page.

Dating a jersey you already own — start from the tag, collar patch or sponsor and land on the part of the guide that explains it.

Shopping a specific championship run — jump straight to the team that won, in the year they won it.

Avoiding a reproduction sold as an original — check the maker on the tag against who actually held the contract that year, and see what comparable listings ask.

Browsing a decade — nine decade pages covering what the jerseys of that era looked like and who made them, year by year.

I spent two years building a free tool that ranked well and earned almost nothing. The traffic was real. The audience just had no reason to buy anything. That was the lesson, and YearJersey is the same skill pointed at people who are actually shopping.

This is a really interesting way to explore sports jerseys by year, especially with the maker eras and reproduction checks. I also like that finding the right jersey is not only about the season or authenticity but also about how it fits your body shape. For anyone interested in understanding their proportions before choosing different clothing styles, a tool like https://bodytypecalc.net/ could be a useful starting point. The combination of sports history, authenticity, and personal style makes this a much more useful approach than a typical marketplace search.

Nostalgic. Never though this can connect so wisely.

Finally, a tool that cuts through the eBay noise! The "era-original" filter and manufacturer guide are game-changers for avoiding fakes. Perfect for collectors who care about authenticity and sports history. Great work!

Ninefold — quietly building small, usefu...

The era-originals filter is the standout feature here — most marketplace searches just show you everything tagged with a year regardless of when it was actually printed, so filtering out the multi-size reproduction runs is solving a real problem. Curious how you're sourcing the maker-era data (who held the manufacturing contract each season) — is that manually researched per league, or is there a structured dataset for that kind of licensing history? That seems like the hardest part to keep accurate over time.

Finally, a tool that cuts through the eBay noise! The "era-original" filter and manufacturer guide are game-changers for avoiding fakes. Perfect for collectors who care about authenticity and sports history. Great work!

The focus on showing who actually manufactured and won each jersey is a thoughtful touch—great for collectors beyond just finding a year.

The "year is the one thing nobody indexes properly" framing is spot on, and it generalizes way beyond jerseys. Any marketplace built on free-text seller titles has this problem. What I like here is that you didn't just add a year filter, you built the almanac and maker-era layer around it so the filter actually means something instead of trusting whatever the seller typed. Curious whether the maker-era mapping is the part that breaks most often as leagues change manufacturers mid-season.

Very nice! Would you do a soccer version?

I spent two years building a free tool that ranked well and earned almost nothing. The traffic was real. The audience just had no reason to buy anything. That was the lesson, and YearJersey is the same skill pointed at people who are actually shopping. The idea came from trying to buy a jersey from one specific season and finding that you can't. Search any marketplace for "1994 jersey" and you get whatever year the seller typed into the title, mixed with reproductions printed last month. The year is the one thing nobody indexes properly. So the site starts there. Type a year and you get what is listed right now, plus the parts a marketplace won't tell you: who won that season, who actually manufactured the jerseys that year, and how to check a tag against the year a listing claims. It won't tell you something is genuine, because no listing can prove that. It tells you when the story doesn't add up. One person, no signup, no ads, no tracking. eBay affiliate links are how it pays for itself.
