Sykotyk Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Just thought of this while viewing the Bad Jersey discussion and the hybrid basketball/football Pro Bowl shirt posted. Are there any real life, actual examples of a legitimate jersey (or fan/replica style) of a team but of a different sport. For instance, a football team identity as a baseball, basketball, or hockey jersey? Or any alteration similar? You see it somewhat in college, where there's a natural crossover, so you see fans sporting, say, a hockey jersey of Minnesota at a Minnesota football game, etc. But, any jerseys actually sold of different sports by one of the Big Four League teams?

zigbazah Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I don't think they sold them in stores, but the Cardinals gave these out to the first 30,000 fans this past September. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Far as the Admirals go, they also wore a pinstripes version a few years later. There was that time Maryland basketball wore Dodgers inspired uniforms, IIRC this was in the Barclays Center's early days. Back in the day, there were baseball jerseys of NFL and NBA teams (as seen in Kris Kross' Jump video), MLB hockey jerseys, and I've seen NFL shirts that look like basketball jerseys.

BBTV Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Super Bowl Champion Philadelphia Eagles summer basketball team. There was also a design with the wordmark from the '00s, but I can't find it. current: former: Also - not an official Eagles jersey, but the jerseys for the charity softball game for Carson Wentz's 'I love Jesus because Jesus is great and you should love Jesus too because only Jesus can help you accomplish things and be good' foundation.

BBTV Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 I remember that video from as a kid. At the time, it was the closest thing to porn I had seen. Dude either has half a boner during the whole thing, or is lending credence to the stereotype.

Sykotyk Posted November 16, 2018 Author Share Posted November 16, 2018 Excellent posts so far. There's a lot of 'cross-overs' of local teams it seems. And it's cool seeing the Eagles basketball jerseys. The Steelers players do a basketball charity game in Western PA at various schools, but I've never actually even paid attention to see what their uniforms looked like in those games. I know the Cleveland Barons wore brown/orange jerseys with BARONS written at an angle across the front of the jersey that made it look far too close to the Browns given the similarity in words. But that was years ago. I think, personally, hockey jerseys lend themselves the best for being the crossover of other leagues. Huge placement of the logo on the chest, full sleeves for striping and alternate logos. Football is primarily just numbers everywhere. MLB are button-down shirts, so they aren't the look most would wear so not as big a deal. And basketball, being tank tops, also mean very little fan apparel potential unless it's a real replica of the team in question. Maybe I"m bias from living up north, maybe down south basketball jerseys of other tams would be more popular because of the heat and comfort being an issue.
