Traditionally, a '''jersey''' is an item of [[knitted fabric|knitted]] clothing, generally made of [[wool]] or [[cotton]], with [[sleeve]]s, worn as a [[Sweater|pullover]], as it does not open at the front, unlike a [[Cardigan (sweater)|cardigan]]. It is usually close-fitting and machine knitted in contrast to a [[guernsey (clothing)|guernsey]] that is more often hand knit with a thicker [[yarn]]. The word is usually used interchangeably with [[sweater]].<ref>{{cite journal|title=Studies on the Influence of Knit Structure and Stitch Length on Ring and Compact Yarn Single Jersey Fabric Properties|first1=C.D.|last1=Kane|first2=U.J.|last2=Patil|first3=P.|last3=Sudhakar|date=1 August 2007|journal=Textile Research Journal|volume=77|issue=8|pages=572–582|doi=10.1177/0040517507078023|s2cid=138629386}}</ref>

A '''sports jersey''' is a [[shirt]] worn by members of a team to identify their affiliation with the team. Jerseys identify their wearers' names and/or numbers, generally showing the colors and [[logo]] of the team. Numbers are frequently used to identify players, since uniforms give players a similar appearance.
