A sports jersey is a key component to any sports man cave. It doesn’t take much to have a great-looking man cave jersey display for your old sports jerseys or those of your favorite teams. It’s easy, quick, and affordable. Here are three easy ways to hang a jersey on the walls. They are listed in alphabetical order, from the simplest to most complicated and expensive.
All three methods can be done with no nails, hammers, or screws. The Command Hooks are used for the first method. The second and third are traditional methods that use nails. They may come with instructions and hardware for mounting nails. You have the option of substituting the nails to hang your jersey and not causing damage to the wall, as you’ll see.
Man Cave Jersey Display: DIY Jersey Hanger
The DIY method of hanging a jersey on the walls is easy and takes less than two minutes. You can find a stud and hammer in the nail. Then hang the jersey with a wire hanger.
- Mark the spot where you want your jersey to be hung and mark it with a pencil.
- A Command Strip Hang should be placed on the wall. The hook should line up with the pencil mark. A Command Strip Hook is a great way to save time and avoid drilling holes in your wall. You can use the double-sided mounting tape that comes with the Hooks for Scotch Mount Extreme Double-Sided Mounting Tape to attach the hook to a concrete wall.

- Optional: flip the hanger upside-down to conceal more of it, as shown in this Fred Jackson Buffalo Bills jersey.
