- Graded for a supporter's body, not for an athlete in the tunnel
The Illinois Fighting Illini supporter build, in plain terms
The Illinois Fighting Illini fan version has no player-issue stiffness and no display-case pricing: it is built around the way a shirt is actually used - washed weekly, worn to class, worn to the ground, worn on a Tuesday.
The kids' version of the real thing
With this Illinois Fighting Illini listing, children notice when their shirt is not the same as everyone else's.
Built around the football calendar
For Illinois Fighting Illini supporters, pre-season, conference play, the bowl game - this is the shirt worn across the whole run.
The version question, answered
fan version is the cut here. Practically, that means it drapes rather than grips, and it goes back into the wardrobe after a wash instead of needing to be pressed.
Fit is standard for little fans - no vanity sizing and no need to size down. Measure the chest if you are unsure.
