Orgo Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 2004 Vissel Kobe jersey and a Montreal Rocket cap. Pretty cool (but they do need to be washed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Bunky Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 What's that blue thing behind the rocket? I used to think that was a silhouette of Prince Edward Island, but since they used to be in Montreal, that can't be it.... It looks like a fried shrimp.

Sodboy13 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Man, I'm as much of a Hawks fan/Wings loather as anyone, but the Wings' white jersey loks damn good. I mean, to the point where I've considered buying one. It's a true classic.

GeneParmesan Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Stumbled onto another find:It's an early 1970s SuperSonics jersey (c. '70-'72?), and might be the rarest jersey I've ever seen at a thrift store. I don't know whether or not replica jerseys were sold in those days, but based on this old listing at Grey Flannel Auctions, it sure looks possible that this could be a team-issued top from the era. Unfortunately, the only tagging present is the Sand-Knit tag, so it may not be easy to figure things out for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerseys of that high quality were definitely not sold in those days, 99.9% sure that's a team-issued blank. Don't know if you plan on keeping it, getting it attributed (Lenny Wilkens or Spencer Haywood) or selling it - if it's one of the latter two, you just came into a couple hundred easy bucks. Incredible find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discogod Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Yeah, Sand-Knit didn't start selling replica NBA jerseys until the early 80s, so I'd guess that's a team-issued jersey - an amazing find. Any chance of some close-ups of the tag & wordmark? I'd suggest keeping hold of it - NBA jerseys from that era are pretty hard to come by, and the value only seems to go up as time goes on...

sportstar1212 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 The other day I got an authentic (I think) England shirt at Marshalls for $20. It's really comfortable to wear and I'm really happy I found this. Here's a pic:And a close up of the badge: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest keeping hold of it - NBA jerseys from that era are pretty hard to come by, and the value only seems to go up as time goes on...I've had a couple of 80s-era Sand-Knit MLB replicas over the years, and they weren't anything like this at all (screen-printed, lightweight double-knit, etc...). Close-ups, as requested:The material is some kind of cotton-spandex blend- I want to say it's durene, but I don't have anything to compare this to. And as far as getting a name/number added goes... while I agree it doesn't look quite right without them, I'd be worried about "ruining" a vintage blank with a contemporary customization (as cool as it would be to have a period Lenny Wilkens jersey).
