A bunch of Pox have been circling the bay lately
Btw calling on all the gurus here
Can someone break down all the undershirts that nike has done over the years
Didn't they start with the whole series of Nike Warriors or was it when Giambi wore that undershirt that looks like an older version of todays Hypercool?
Nike made tight-fit compression shirts that had vents on the shoulders and underarms, with clear Swooshes on the left chest area, those are the first I can really recall. Then they made the Nike Pro Vent series that had the cooling mesh vents down the spine, just a lot more rounded than the current Hypercools. As you said Giambi wore them in adverts, as well as Vick and Terrell Owens. All the Nike college teams wore em because you could see the holes at the back of the jersey. Nike Pro Vent series, the ones you are referring to with the "Warrior" series in your avatar, were the second version with that jock tag at the neck area and the tight venting at the sides. They started to really to expand the line as they had all the MLB teams with these shirts on. The third series were the ones called Pro Max, just a standard compression shirt with grey mesh venting running down the sides of the shirt and of course had em in tight and regular fit. Of course there have been the Pox baselayers that were exclusively used in the MLB, the baselayers with the Swoosh on the neck started in 2009, and you had the base Thermalites that barely any players wore. I can give a more extensive run-down once I get home, this is off my memory at work lol.
