As a giant Mavs fan I don’t even hate on Trae. I’m happy we have Luka but would’ve happy with Trae as well. Plus the new Hawks jerseys have the 90s vibe to it. “I grew up in the 90s” nice pick ups!

Have we even had proof that there are Earned jerseys or just mockups?

The Raptors Statement Authentic Edition is available for pre-order now. Just ordered mine. They restocked the icon and association as well. I just bought the association from a reseller at a hype price....

I just realized that the Nike deal with authentic NBA jerseys is similar to their deal with authentic NFL jerseys which doesn't make it necessarily a good thing either.
The similarities with both leagues are that they have the teams' default color jerseys available for consumers. They also don't make the less popular teams available for retail. Another similarity of both leagues is the stitching style of the authentic jerseys because the ones made in a Nike factory have the default kiss-cut stitching style whereas most of the customized ones made in a third party warehouse have the incorrect and archaic layered stitching style.
I'm going to say it's slightly better with the authentic NBA jerseys because Nike has more colors available including the alternate and white jerseys as long as it's a popular team with a popular player. Another additional option with the Nike authentic NBA jerseys are that the annual City jerseys are available yearly although I don't care for them myself.
The drawback with Nike authentic NFL jerseys are that only the teams' primary color is available as long as it's a popular team and popular player. Otherwise, if you want an alternate or white authentic jersey, or a less popular team's default color jersey, you'll have to go the customized route with discrepancies unfortunately.

I feel the current vapor elite nfl jerseys are the worst to wear casually. The sleeves to material isn’t all that comfortable and a $400 price tag is way too much.

Yeah. Super annoyed. Put in a claim with UPS, but this is back to back issues I've had with them. Last issue thank goodness a neighbor had it. This time, who knows where it is, smh.

I actually don't have any discomfort wearing them. I'm OK with the sleeves and material.
I agree with the price being too high isn't a good thing.

they Look nice with a hoodie or a long sleeve. On its own, it’s not the best fit or comfort for me. Especially when ita hot. The sleeve cuffs are the same. Look good with a hoodie. On its own, its not the best fit for me.

Technically not NBA but figured other old heads might appreciate. Just arrived moments ago:
Don’t care much for the various shoes or other gear dropping, but this VC jersey was a MUST!
Definitely looser than an Authentic in the same size, right?
I think these will be like the or have the same fit as Space Jam jerseys that released almost a year ago.

i got a medium & large coming in. Will report back.
Had been looking for a OG rayguns jersey for a while but they never made specific players. Pretty cool that they made a VC. Guessing they didnt make other players because they arent on active nike deals. For those who dont know, jermaine oneal, jerry stackhouse, baron davis were also part of the OG marketing campaign
Now Fabolous can get rid of his fugazi and pick up a real one

Saw that and my heart skipped but I guess I'll be paying ~$100 for the Motorola patch from the Nets Store.
