Seattle's Second Title: Kenneth Walker III and the 12s Jersey
JerseyFan Hub - Seattle's Second Title: Kenneth Walker III and the 12s Jersey

On 8 February 2026, the Seattle Seahawks beat the New England Patriots 29–13 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, and running back Kenneth Walker III was named Super Bowl LX MVP. It was Seattle's second championship, twelve years after the first, and it came in the game that settled the longest-running argument in the franchise's history: the one that started when Malcolm Butler intercepted Russell Wilson at the goal line in Super Bowl XLIX.

This is what actually happened that night, and what it means for the shirts.

The shape of the game matters if you are picking a shirt. This was not a shootout that flattered a quarterback. It was a defensive game in which the only consistent offence was a running back who took 27 carries, and in which five of Seattle's first six scoring drives ended in a field goal. The fourth quarter was the only quarter with touchdowns in it. That is why a running back won the award for the first time since 1997, and why this title will be remembered as a defence-and-field-position championship rather than a highlight-reel one.

The 12s jersey, and why it is not a player jersey

Seattle is the only place in the NFL where a shirt with a number on it is not a player shirt. 12 belongs to the crowd. The number was retired for the fans decades ago, and the club has leaned into it ever since — the flag ceremony before home kick-offs, the noise records, the fact that the loudest shirt in the building is the one nobody can be blamed for outgrowing.

That is what makes the 12s Game jersey in college navy the safest buy in the whole NFL range at €57.60. It is the classic boxy game cut, built to sit over a t-shirt, and it does not depend on a player staying on the roster. The white version is the same build at the same price, and it is the one that reads best under stadium lights in a night game.

If you want the top of the range, the 12s Alternate Vapor F.U.S.E. Stitched Limited jersey in royal is €79.99. Limited is the step up where the numbers and letters are stitched rather than printed, and the fabric is the lighter, closer-cut one. It is the build to buy if this is a shirt you intend to keep rather than one you intend to wear weekly.

The rest of the NFC West rack

Seattle's title run also revived interest in the division's other catalogues, and San Francisco's is the one with history in it.

One sizing note before you order. NFL shirts are the roomiest cut outside ice hockey: they are boxy on purpose because they are designed to go over a tee or a hoodie. Order your true chest size for the standard sideline look. If you are planning to wear a hoodie underneath in a December away game, go up one — the size guide carries the full body and garment charts, and it is worth sixty seconds with a tape before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

Who won Super Bowl LX MVP?

Kenneth Walker III of the Seattle Seahawks, after rushing for 135 yards on 27 carries and adding 26 receiving yards in a 29–13 win over New England.

Is the 12s jersey a player jersey?

No. The number 12 in Seattle belongs to the fans — it was retired for the crowd rather than for a player, which is why a 12s shirt never goes out of date when somebody is traded.

How many Super Bowls have the Seahawks won?

Two. Super Bowl XLVIII in February 2014 and Super Bowl LX in February 2026.

What is the difference between Game, Limited and Legend builds?

Game (€57.60) is the roomy fan cut with printed numbers. Legend Player Performance (€68.99) is lighter and closer through the chest, made to wear on its own. Limited (€79.99) uses stitched numbers and premium fabric — it is the build that lasts longest.

Should I size up on an NFL jersey?

Only if you want extra room for a hoodie. NFL shirts are already the second-roomiest cut we carry after hockey. Your true chest size gives you the intended sideline look.
