Basic Trope: A character who is constantly wearing a sports jersey or sometimes a varsity jacket, even outside of sports-related activities.

  • Straight: Jack is a member of the Troperville High School Wildcats football team, and as such is regularly shown wearing his jersey.
  • Exaggerated:
    • Jack always wears his jersey, even in the shower and other various activities when he should realistically take the jersey off.
    • All of the members of the sports teams always wear their jerseys.
  • Downplayed: Jack occasionally wears his jersey, but has other outfits too.
  • Justified:
    • Jack doesn't have other clothing to wear.
    • Jack can't take the jersey off for whatever reason.
    • Jack is a proud jock (whether he's a Jerk Jock or a Lovable Jock) who wants to make it known that he supports his football team.
    • Jack simply likes the design of his football jersey.
  • Inverted: Jack doesn't wear his jersey at all, even during sports-related activities.
  • Subverted: ???
  • Double Subverted: ???
  • Parodied: ???
  • Zig-Zagged: A sports jersey outside of sports-related activities is one of the many parts of Jack's Unlimited Wardrobe.
  • Averted: Jack only wears a jersey when he's playing sports.
  • Enforced: The characters in the show have a Limited Wardrobe, and it seemed to make sense that a character known for playing sports would have their chosen outfit be a jersey.
  • Lampshaded: A look into Jack's closet reveals that it's entirely full of jerseys for the Troperville Wildcats.
  • Invoked: ???
  • Exploited: ???
  • Defied: ???
  • Discussed: ???
  • Conversed: "Weird how the characters known for playing sports are always wearing jerseys, no matter what."
