really great read!
btw. there is info about larry bird and magic johnson warm up jackets. hope they will make someday that warm up jacket:



anyone get email to decision making person from mitchell and ness?
i was trying to contact with them by "contact us" on their site but answer was... my question was missunderstood.
i was asking ofcourse about mesh, whe the hell they don't using correct mesh, as they did in the past

@MJO23DAN

if u have some contact, maybe u could ask them about that?
maybe i'm alone, but if they use correct mesh, i would buy their every jordan jersey and few others
also screen printing in last few jerseys was... cheap and incorrect...
tis there any chance they could change it in future?

I have an eddie jones Nike team issued one

lol super huge on me can't even wear it.

and from the article I read it said ADIDAS WON'T BE renewing their contract. I think Nike gets it back and a lot of the jerseys will have major redesigns. Adidas did OK with the jerseys just the sizing problem wasn't fixed until this season. They were too long.

Check out around :40 on the first commercial, they managed to get MJ into an adidas Jersey after all!

and from the article I read it said ADIDAS WON'T BE renewing their contract.

The NBA will announce the new partner in Spring next year.

All I want to know about is what's up with ads on the jerseys, that's all I'm concerned about going forward.

Personally I think Nike are going to take it back.

Everyone should take a read of this article and its points made. Based off of it I think it's a foregone conclusion Nike takes it back:

I read the comment before reading the article and expected to see a little more meat as to why you thought it was a foregone conclusion that Nike will win.

I agree that Nike fits all of those points, but curious to see how UA attacks this after they went head to head with Nike to try to ink KD.

I also think we've seen some logistics issues with Nike recently shifting more of their supply chain control internally, so curious to see how that point is addressed when pitching the NBA.

Regardless, Nike has to feel good having weathered Adidas' attempt to eat a big chunk of Nike's market share. I believe one of the reasons why Adidas had gone in so hard on basketball was because Nike had stepped into Adidas' area of expertise: soccer. With Adidas withdrawing instead if losing the bid, it's like Adidas is leaving the fight with their tail between their legs.

I agree with you here. With Nike beating out UA for KD, I can see UA going the extra mile to try to win this one.

I promise this won't change prices - if we are lucky, the quality will improve or better reflect real player wear.

Article featuring Mitchell & Ness's director of merchandising and the decisions involved when M&N releases new jerseys. Pretty cool: [http://www.complex.com/sports/2015/03/mitchell-ness-interview-michael-jordan-bulls-jersey//URL]

I would have a lot of fun discussing which players would make great new releases. They probably do check this thread

Hope we could use the nba store discount on Thursdays for these

The key, I think, as to why Nike takes this back now and UA will not is in the "State of the licensed business".

From the article: "The licensed apparel business has been quite challenged in the U.S. lately for all brands and leagues. The category has not yet been revived as streetwear. Because current sales of licensed apparel are driven in large part by “fan wear”, I see limited upside potential. If a brand can unlock the streetwear market, the upside could be substantial."

Nike has the power to take it back to the early to mid 2000s and bring jerseys back as "streetwear". IMHO UA definitely does not at this point and if they do manage to snag the license then I see them bowing out like adidas has down the line.

Also, there's the important issue that UA don't have an international business and no recent experience making licensed product!

@Zyzz wasn't it you who said that you got a M in M&N jersey and said it was to small and that the large is to big? I'm still thinking if a Large will be to big for me. Medium was to tight for me

length wise, the 40 is perfect.

about an inch total added to the 40 would be perfect man. I hate the size 40 sizing.

the red all star Jordan is a 40 and fits bigger than everything else for some reason and i love how it fits.

Where can I get a Michael Jordan jersey? Been looking everywhere online and can't find any. I'm looking for the home jersey. Also how much do they go for? And what's considered replica nowadays? I'm hearing Adidas is considered like a "replica" because their jerseys aren't stitched. I'm looking for a stitched one like how Nike did em in the early 2000's. 

 

[la kb24]

I ordered the jordan black jersey last month and returned it. It was to tight. I remember ppl saying the jerseys are tight now. Last jersey I got was the #24 kobe retro jersey which was last year and it fits fine but the jordan jersey was to tight. I had to struggle to get it off
