The Shohei Ohtani and Decopin drawn by Kenta Maeda V2 Jersey
The Shohei Ohtani and Decopin drawn by Kenta Maeda V2 Jersey Front and center on this crisp white jersey, you’ll find a cartoon spectacle: Shohei Ohtani and a dog named Decopin mid decopin duel a battle of fingers and foreheads. Rendered in Kenta Maeda’s intentionally rough sketch style (think “child with a crayon” meets “pitcher with too much free time”), this design brings quirky, underdog charm to the field. The left sleeve sports the LA logo, because we must never forget the team behind the madness. Flip it around and boom bold blue block letters spelling “DODGERS” stretch across the back, no nonsense and unapologetic. It’s as if the back says “we mean business,” while the front whispers “but also, we flick foreheads for fun.” This V2 version strips it down to the essentials no flashy back graphics, just clean lines, classic Dodgers style, and a big ol’ helping of inside joke energy.
This bizarre yet beloved design stems from Kenta Maeda’s viral sketch of Ohtani and Decopin playing decopin a traditional Japanese game where you flick someone’s forehead for fun. The sketch blew up among Dodgers fans, spawning memes, laughter, and eventually this legendary jersey.
It’s a fusion of MLB swagger and Japanese humor, proof that sports can be as goofy as they are glorious. Also, it begs the question: Is this the first time a major league team merchandised a forehead flick? Probably. But that’s what makes it iconic.
The Shohei Ohtani and Decopin drawn by Kenta Maeda V2 Jersey is not just clothing it’s a conversation starter, a flex, and an open invitation to join the fun. Whether you’re at the ballpark or just flicking foreheads at home, this jersey makes a statement.
