jersey
Athlete's numbered shirt
A jersey is a knitted garment, typically a pullover sweater or a fitted shirt worn by athletes.
The athletic sense dominates in American English: She bought a Lakers jersey.
Sports jerseys display team colors and player numbers, and fans wear replica jerseys to show allegiance.
The fabric jersey—a soft, stretchy knit—takes its name from the garment. (Capitalized Jersey refers to the island or place names.)
