This style can be worn by passionate sports fanatics of either a popular team, or a team that they play on themselves; the JerkJock might sometimes wear his jersey as a CustomUniform at school, and in some cases if a character used to play sports in school, wearing their old school jersey may be a sign that they are holding on to past glories, or that their whole identity is tied to their time as a varsity athlete.

* Played for Horror in ''VideoGame/LisaThePointless'' with the Infinity Franchise. The creator of the Infinity Jerseys (a red basketball jersey with green stripes and a green [[green: 88]] on it), Kung Company, was supposed to release these jerseys as expected from their knockoffs of King Corporation's other products... Except that there was ''no'' sportswear line from King Corporation, meaning that Kung accidentally released ''an original product''. As a result, [[AfterTheEnd After the Flash]], once these jerseys were dug up, some kind of supernatural force engulfed both them and their wearers, causing the wearers to go AxCrazy as a result.

* Toji from ''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'' is often seen in a tracksuit and jogging pants during school (the only time he doesn't is in the ninth episode). This is probably one of the reasons why he is always getting under the skin of the ClassRepresentative Hikari (other than her infatuation with him).

* ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'':
** In the latter half of season 2B, Luz starts wearing Eda's old varsity grudgby jacket over her usual outfit. No actual reason for it is given, though the the implication is that it's simply getting colder out and Eda thought that Luz would prefer having something passed down to her than a brand new jacket.
** Played for Drama in "Labyrinth Runners". [[spoiler:After learning the truth about his origins and running away from Belos, Hunter ditches his Golden Guard outfit and is shown wearing his Flyer Derby uniform (along with a ragged cloak that he probably found in the garbage somewhere) because it's the only other outfit he has. Fortunately, his next appearance in "Clouds on the Horizon" shows him cleaned up with a much more casual outfit.]]

* In the French film series ''Film/{{Taxi}}'', Marseille-based BadassDriver protagonist Daniel Morales (Creator/SamyNaceri) often wears UsefulNotes/AssociationFootball jerseys. In ''Taxi 2'' (released in 2000), it's that of the French national team, the #10 of [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zinedine_Zidane Zinedine Zidane]] more precisely. That player is regarded as one of the greatest the sport has ever known, he was the local pride of Marseille (as well as the nation's) and was a major factor in the French victory at the 1998 [[UsefulNotes/TheWorldCup FIFA World Cup]]. Daniel also wears Olympique de Marseille jerseys, naturally -- that team is the very definition of SeriousBusiness in RealLife in and around the city.
