johnnysama Posted November 7, 2017 Author Share Posted November 7, 2017 Well, I found the 2002-11 Reebok Seattle Seahawks #12 Fan jersey for $6 that was in excellent shape. I also found a University of Colorado-Boulder hockey jersey, but I wasn't able to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Squared Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 Might be tough to photomatch, need to do some research... but I believe this is a late 1980's Shane Conlan Buffalo Bills practice jersey: My TeePublic Shop My Instagram Art Page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyraven8 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Spent way more than I usually do in the thrift stores - picked up these two handknit sweaters for $40 each on Friday. That day I just couldn't leave them there. Winnipeg Blue Bombers & Winnipeg Jets.

Ben in LA Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Found this Mitchell & Ness San Diego Clippers snapback at Burlington in the city of Whittier and wore it in SD; got a lot of stares. Hey, it was only $7.99... I’d upload a pic but I’m on my iPad and for some reason I can no longer do that hmm...so I had to use Google and share the url.

PhysicalGraffiti Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 After looking for one of these for years, I saw this thread and realized I stopped looking. Looked again and found it and got it! eBay so it's not a thrift shop really, but I'm pretty stoked about this find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElwoodCuse Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I saw someone wearing one of those outside PNC Park at the end of this season. I couldn't believe that someone both bought it and still thought it was a good idea to wear. It's definitely one of the most "uh, why?" alternate jerseys ever. Who ever heard of red for red's sake?

Yeah I mostly collect hockey jerseys and have always loved the odd ones that people think are ugly. I've just always enjoyed a team going outside the box for an alt jersey. I love red jerseys, so this one for the Pirates fit for me. Red has been in the Pirates scheme for quite a while because of the red in the Jolly Roger logo. They only recently took it out completely of their logo/uni setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoOakland Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 All I know about the red-era Pirates is that gangs in my area co-opted the P hat with the red bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imawalkingcorpse Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Found a Minnesota Golden Gophers Apex 1 jacket for 12.00. Spoiler Spoiler I hate the new Buccaneers logo. Pewter was boring in 97, even more boring now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyratk1 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Not quite a thrift store find but picked up a 16-17 Manchester United Jersey for $10.40 with free international shipping on Kitbag. Got it within a week. https://imgur.com/a/ZjZQA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnysama Posted December 3, 2017 Author Share Posted December 3, 2017 I found a Tony Tolbert Dallas Cowboys jersey for $7.50, but one of my 30% off cards made me get it for $2 less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny the Sheeb Posted December 6, 2017 Share Posted December 6, 2017 I love my local Savers: The batterman on the back is rendered in red and blue, for some odd reason.

I think (might be wrong) but during the first year of MLB putting the logo behind the cap, they were all the same color. Next season, they used team colors on the batterman logo.

johnnysama Posted December 6, 2017 Author Share Posted December 6, 2017 I found something so amazing: The above style Andre Tippett Patriots jersey (from his final season; also the first season for the "Flying Elvis" logo) for $20, but my 30% off card (I have one left now) made me get it for $14.

Next season, they used team colors on the batterman logo. Some teams had the MLB logo on the back of the caps in the team colors in 1992, actually. One example is a 1987-92 Mariners cap I have that is in blue and yellow (SIDENOTE: 1992 was the last year for the M's in blue and yellow, at least full-time.) But, a few teams did have the batterman logo in its standard red and blue early on (the Brewers "ball-in-glove" caps had the logo like that early on).

The pinstriped cap debuted in 1993 - a couple years after the debut of the batterman logo on hats. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

johnnysama Posted December 26, 2017 Author Share Posted December 26, 2017 Well, this may likely be the last finds for the year, but I got the late 1990s Toronto Maple Leafs jersey and a Giants Hakeem Nicks jersey for $20 each. I almost forgot: I got a Hanshin Tigers cap for $4. ^ I've enclosed several photos to determine whether it's fake or real. I think it is the real McCoy, as the twill is not 'bubbling' like a counterfeit would. If anybody thinks otherwise, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C-Squared Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Looks legit to me! The shield looks perfect My local savers had about 10 of the worst fake Nike Raiders jerseys I have ever seen at $40 a pop... a week later, they had all sold! Such a shame.

GriffinM6 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Been meaning to post these for a while. Got a 2017 Ireland Soccer Away jersey for $20 off Ebay. The badge is a rubber material, but it's meant to look like twill. One thing I didn't know before getting this was that there are sublimated horizontal stripes on the front. Another little quirk on this jersey is that you can flip the sleeve cuffs to either be solid or have striping. Last week I went to Value Village and found a replica 80s Dale Murphy away jersey. And in addition to that, I got a Germany soccer and Gwinnett Gladiators (ECHL) scarves for $1 each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
