I see so many pictures of rappers wearing Swingmans or fakes I don’t get it if you got all this money for jewelry and cars that cost as much as a house why are you wearing fugazi gear.
Rappers are dumb some literally don’t know the difference between a Swingman and Authentic joint
It's backwards with rappers and athletes wearing sorry swingmans or fakes because most of us refuse to wear that crap despite not being rich ourselves. You would assume it would be other way around in theory that rappers and athletes would refuse to wear inferior crap predicated on them having money.
It's also annoying that some users don't know how to read the room whenever they post they got swingmans or post links to acquire them on this thread because most of us on here hate that crap and wear strictly authentic.
The throwback era in 02-03 was even worse I remember someone I went to high school with had a fake Lebron James M&N when he was just drafted on the Cavs
.
Coincidentally, I actually saw that same fake crap in malls in like late 2003, perhaps past that point as well. I saw fools wearing then-contemporary jerseys of LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Garnett as fake Mitchell & Ness around that time. It was simultaneously funny and dumb because those were throwback jerseys of current designs. Those fakes contradicted the definition/concept of what a throwback is.
Yeah definitely don’t pass that one up made in USA M&N are not easy to come by.
Unfortunately, the made in USA Mitchell & Ness jerseys had flaws despite them having great quality and materials. I had a bunch from the 2000s that I got rid of throughout the 2010s to 2020. I noticed they had discrepancies with the font details and size with the letters and numbers. The sizing on them was irregular because a lot of them came out larger than their listed size on the sewn tags.
This one is actually mine, I dug it out of storage I just don’t remember anything about it
It’s gotta be @ least 10 years old because that’s how long I’ve had the storage unit, but that’s really all I know about it.
Was there a specific year M&N stopped making their jerseys in USA?
Hopefully, I'm looking to sell because it doesn't really fit me.
Pretty funny because after some digging I found a thread on here regarding the jersey:
Mitchell & Ness Michael Jordan Limited Edition 1985 Authentic All-Star Jersey - NBAStore.com On February 10, 1985, Michael Jordan took the court in his firstAll-Star Game. Commemorate this epic event by wearing the Mitchell& Ness174 Michael Jordan Limited Edition 1985 Authentic All-Starjersey...

Apparently it dropped in early 2010, don't even think we had an M&N thread back then
I would say they stopped making their jerseys in USA by the mid-2000s, around the time Peter Capolino sold the company. They still made them in USA around the throwback fad of the early 2000s. All their stuff became outsourced by the time Reebok/Adidas owned them.
But some Jordan jerseys that came out in limited quantities after the mid-2000s were made in USA. All Jordan jerseys have been outsourced once he officially signed a long-term deal with them during the 2010s.
It's been a tradeoff between made in USA and outsourced jerseys.
I did point out the flaws above within this post with the made in USA jerseys. At least those jerseys resembled the game-worn jerseys.
The outsourced jerseys got it mostly right with the font details and sizing of the letters and numbers. But they use cheaper materials and the execution isn't as good. They don't resemble the game-worn jerseys, particularly with the air holes on the NBA jerseys being too small.
was it 40 last year?
