George Kittle Jersey — 49ers Big & Tall S–6X, XLT–5XLT
Quick answer: NFL Shop is the first stop for a big or tall George Kittle jersey — it carries the full size run linked below, to 6X and 5XLT — with Fanatics behind it for the wider 49ers departments and FansEdge as the price check. Kittle plays tight end like a fullback who happens to catch passes: he blocks like a lineman, runs after the catch like he’s angry at the ground, and grins through all of it. His No. 85 is the Faithful’s favorite jersey, and in extended sizes it is one of the tougher star jerseys to catch in stock.

Why Checking More Than One Store Saves Real Money
Say you want a Kittle jersey before a Sunday at Levi’s Stadium. NFL Shop might be running a percentage-off event on it this week while Fanatics sits at full price — then FansEdge marks its version down the following week. Each store discounts on its own schedule, so the same jersey is often three different prices depending on where and when you look.

Sizes, Translated

Regular
- XXL = 2X = 2XL = 2XB
- 3XL = 3X = 3XB
- 4XL = 4X = 4XB
- 5XL = 5X = 5XB
- 6XL = 6X = 6XB
Tall
- XLT = XT = LT
- 2XLT = 2XT
- 3XLT = 3XT
- 4XLT = 4XT
- 5XLT = 5XT
Big vs. Tall — Which Cut Do You Need?
Big sizes add room through the chest and midsection. Tall sizes add length — torso and sleeves — without widening the jersey much. Kittle wears his jersey like armor over pads; yours has to go over a hoodie on a cold night at Levi’s. If a regular cut leaves the hem at your belt when you stand up to yell on third down, the tall version of the same size is the one cut for you.

Interesting Facts About George Kittle
San Francisco drafted him in the 5th round — 146th overall — in 2017. Kittle came out of the Iowa Hawkeyes, a program that quietly produces pro tight ends the way other schools produce quarterbacks. He caught just 48 passes in his entire college career, which is why he lasted until the fifth round. The 49ers have been laughing about it ever since.
He invented a holiday. Mic’d up during a 2018 game, Kittle declared it National Tight End Day — and the league actually adopted it, celebrating tight ends every season since. He still treats it like a personal championship.
The wrestling thing is real. Kittle is a lifelong pro wrestling fan — the lucha libre mask, the Penta celebrations, the entrances. It fits the way he plays: half the highlights are catches, the other half are him running through a tackle like it insulted him.
