Dating Cowboys gear

Look at the dark jersey: gray white-trimmed numbers point to 1981-94, while a star on the sleeve stripes means 1996 or later. Double-star jerseys come from 1994-95 or later throwback games.

1980s tells

  • Starter jackets: satin team jackets and pullover jackets with Starter's logo embroidered on the sleeve.
  • Made in USA tags are expected. Offshore-made labels became common from the mid-1990s.
  • City names: Los Angeles Raiders (1982-94), Indianapolis Colts (from 1984) and Phoenix Cardinals (1988-93). Baltimore Colts and St. Louis Cardinals gear predates those moves.
