Sewn with the team's "D" logo on the front left breast, and manufacturer's tagging on the collar from Wilson is joined by [size] "44" and "Dry Clean Only" flag tags. above the hem on the jacket's zipper facing is a felt plate chain-stitched with his number "28". Great overall use is visible throughout.
