One of the biggest rages for Disney World fans are Disney Spirit Jerseys. If you’ve been to Walt Disney World in the last 10 years or you are already a Disney fanatic then you already know how popular they have become. In this article, I’m going to answer some typical questions that I see people asking about Spirit Jerseys.
What Are Disney Spirit Jerseys?
Disney Spirit Jerseys are sports jerseys, usually made of nylon mesh, cotton, or synthetics. They typically have a specific Disney theme. For example, you might have a Disney spirit jersey that has Winnie the Pooh, Mickey Mouse, Tinkerbell theming on it.
They also have specific spirit jerseys for each time of the year. Including Halloween, Christmas, and more. You can also find Spirit Jerseys for each of the festivals at Epcot throughout the year.
Can Guys Wear Disney Spirit Jerseys?
Yes! Spirit Jerseys can be worn by anyone, male or female.
Although I know a lot of guys who just won’t wear them primarily because women consider them fashionable and you might see more women wearing them than men in the theme parks.
Are Disney Spirit Jerseys Comfortable?
Spirit Jerseys are usually very comfortable and feel like you are wearing an old worn-in and lightweight sweatshirt. They can still become uncomfortable if you wear them while working out for example, but most people use them as casual clothing.
Are Spirit Jerseys Meant To Be Oversized?
People often mistake Disney spirit jerseys for being oversized, but that’s not always the case. When it comes to sizing a spirit jersey, you want to take into consideration what type of fit you prefer.
For example, some people like their spirit jerseys baggy and long while others prefer a snugger fit that clings to the body. Check out the sizing chart on this website to get more of an idea of how it fits. Also, Melissa and Tiffany over at Disney Dopamine covered this topic in better length over on Disney Dopamine.
Do Disney Spirit Jerseys Run Big?
Disney spirit jerseys generally run true to size, but you can find certain styles or brands that will run small or big. It’s always best to check the sizing chart before purchasing a new jersey.
What Size Disney Spirit Jersey Should I Buy?
To determine what size of spirit jersey you need; simply take your chest measurement and compare it with the manufacturer’s size guide for that particular item of clothing. You can typically find the sizing chart right next to the item on shop Disney or located on a tag inside. Most people like their spirit jerseys to be roomy so they’re not tight, so if between sizes go the larger of the two.
Where Can I Buy Disney Spirit Jerseys?
Spirit jerseys can be purchased from Disney directly. You should be able to find the newer ones from shop Disney. You can also find them on eBay, Amazon, and a handful of other third-party vendors. They typically cost between $50 and $100, depending on the retailer you purchase from, how rare it is and whether or not it’s a licensed Disney product.

How Much Do Disney Spirit Jerseys Cost?
Currently, the cheapest spirit jerseys being sold by third-party vendors on eBay are going for about $20 including shipping costs. Directly from Disney however, they’re priced at around $50 – with some styles being slightly more expensive than others.
How To Wash Disney Spirit Jerseys
To wash your jersey, always use cold water because hot water can damage the material (and therefore decrease its lifespan considerably). You should also avoid using bleach when washing it to keep it looking good as new; because bleach can weaken the fabric and cause it to lose its color and shape.
To protect your jersey, we recommend you turn it inside out before washing it. This will keep the outside of your spirit jersey from fading too quickly and becoming discolored or misshapen due to constant exposure to water (which can ruin the material). Then simply let it air dry (or use a laundry dryer on a low setting). We also recommend ironing it on medium-to-high heat if necessary but only do this if there are creases in the material that needs removing.
Do They Make Disney Spirit Jerseys For Dogs?
Yes, there are dog spirit jerseys available online and they cost around $25 plus shipping. They’re sold through shop Disney as well as third-party vendors like Etsy and come in a variety of styles (including some that look like the real thing).
Conclusion
Disney spirit jerseys are a stylish and practical way to show your fandom at any at the parks and they’re available in a huge range of different styles and colors. The most important thing to remember is that the jersey should fit well (but not be too tight) so it stays comfortable over long periods of time. Make sure you follow our recommended washing tips, but otherwise, you’ll be good to go!
