So, my understanding is that it is a combined deal with Nike and Fanatics. Fanatics is actually manufacturing the jerseys, with licensing for the Nike branding. I don't know if Majestic had a similar deal, but they probably did (never bought one of the Fanatics ones without the Majestic branding).
Cool to see some non-baseball people excited for MLB gear just because of the addition of the Swoosh (at least from the social media reaction I've seen), and interesting to see MLB people with no regard for Nike/Swoosh hating on the addition of the Swoosh.
I really dig it, but nothing new for my Cubbies yet, so I'll have to wait for throwbacks/players' weekend/all-star/etc. for something to cop, unless I'm at Wrigley and the atmosphere overtakes me, or Nike makes a Contreres or Ross away jersey soon. Some of the new jersey designs (for other teams) look fantastic, so I'm excited to see what Nike will do from a design perspective for the future.
