#1 why would you advertise a product you can't see
#2 who tf is wearing a button up over a jersey lol

Lol, Mitchell and Ness is trippin’.
 
always thought the design of the wide shoulder jerseys wierd since you have to have a very specific physical frame to make it work (lean and skinny) so i like the thin shoulder designs more...


but most of the iverson peak performance has been in the wide shoulder version so.... meh.....

Probably as with baggy shorts past the knees, it was just something players felt they were comfortable with at the time. The rule was the baggier, the better back then. Especially with AI.
 
Quick heads up. You can call the flagship store and do phone orders for the more recent release stuff that’s excluded on the website. I just ordered the two things I want, got the 40% off and no tax which was an added bonus.
What did you get
 
Get it while it's hot, $100 off
 
Get it while it's hot, $100 off

Need them when it's at least half off. Only ones I'll ever pay more than half off are Bulls and I already have multiples of them.
 
Anyone else place an order on m&n but not get a confirmation email after it’s placed?
 
So, this week's rabbit hole and M&N complaint:

I'm a big Larry Bird fan and I'd like a jersey - but I don't think I could bring myself to wear a Celtics jersey. I'd love an authentic '92 Olympic jersey so that seems a better choice.

But, there's something about Bird's number that always annoyed me - the font is inconsistent with the 7 compared to the others on the team - but that's a design issue rather than anything to do with M&N. But M&N have got it wrong - it shouldn't have a serif on the front - it's just a straight top.

I looked at a few images online and it's always been that way:

So M&N screwed up right? Not very surprising.

But then I started looking at the back of the jersey - which is harder to find photos of so I ended up finding a few games and getting screenshots:

So it's Champion who screwed up in 92 right?

But then I remembered that the 94 WC team wore the same uniforms. Shawn Kemp was number 7:

Same problem!

The only positive I can find is that actually the M&N white version seems to be period correct:

I'd rather have a blue one, but looks like it's going to have to be white.
 
This jersey design will always be my first memory of the Texas Rangers. And Nolan Ryan will always be the first player I can identify with that team.
