Wasatch Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Who's the biggest and best carrier of old and modern ABA gear? I was just thinking over the weekend how it would be cool to get my hands on some Utah Stars gear, perhaps some commemorative items to celebrate the 1971 ABA Championship.

cappital92 Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I'm not sure about the amount, but I know that Mitchell and Ness has some Utah Stars stuff. I don't think there's more than a jersey, but I'd look there. http://www.wizardsxtra.com Is it the shoes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoopskid Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Well see if there's a market out there and get a license to sell that ABA gear. I haven't seen a lot of it around, and I'm sure a few people will want it, but unless the team has an association with the NBA I can't see many people buying it. However, some of those aba logos are really cool and a few people might buy gear just for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does one go about getting a license to sell such merchandise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasatch Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Thanks to a great friend, I believe I understand the model of NBA licensing. Now for my next question. Does anybody know of any other company besides Mitchell & Ness who's licensed to create & sell ABA gear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblommel Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Ebay seems to have the most online... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasatch Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Ebay seems to have the most online...Isn't it mostly original authentic stuff from back in the day though?Here's an odd ball question.....Has there ever been a company other than Mitchell & Ness who was officially licensed to produce ABA gear in the past 10 years?

Wasatch Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Did a few searching on eBay and found that Mitchell & Ness do a few random jerseys here and there. I wonder if they've ever made any old retro ABA shorts though..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
