I mean, what NBA player have you ever seen wear Avias? Clyde Drexler was their star, after he quit wearing Roos. There was an Avia branded Drexler fanclub (I was a member) and I still have some Avia branded Drexler promo material I picked up when my dad worked for the company. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kimball Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 I'm pretty sure this was a preseason game ... but, talk about a horrible color vs. color matchup. 2 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

kimball Posted May 28, 2017 Author Share Posted May 28, 2017 I find this odd in the sense of seeing Terry Cummings in #34 on the 76ers. Even if Barkley wasn't retired yet, but it's odd seeing another Sixer in #34 number post Barkley's Sixer tenure. 2 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

RIP On 3/18/2017 at 7:21 AM, BShaw20 said: Yep, I love those MacGregor jerseys but the logo is heavy on the front and it sort of sagged as the game went on Of note about the Orlando Magic jerseys from the first season, they were made from a nylon/cotton blend, a Durene jersey if you will. http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1988-10-22/news/0070450219_1_magic-uniforms-minear - According to this article from the Orlando Sentinel in 1988, a year before the team began play, the reason for using that material was that the pinstripes on the uniform set couldn't be reproduced on the standard nylon mesh fabric. Macgregor/Sand Knit went under towards the end of the Magic's first season, and I have seen on the internet some of those Durene jerseys replaced with Champion tagging (for their second season); those were presumably leftovers from the previous season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
