Official Mitchell and Ness Thread: Jerseys, Hats, Shirts, Shorts, Questions POST EM UP

The New dons hit oneness. They are excluded. Surprised that these new ones hit but they still don't have the Sonics, Heat and Kings that hit prior.

alot of retailers didnt get the sonics & kings pair. The only retailer on my list that got the white heat pair is corporate
 
How do the yankee bp jerseys fit? Looking at the Mariano or Bernie
 
bought a lakers home from realreal and I'm like 90% sure they are reps....
the tag inside says 80% cotton/20% polyester, all my other dons are 100% polyester (although I don't have one from this early batch so not entirely sure here)
the mitchell and ness tag doesnt have a barcode/price sticker on it
the draw string material feels off and is extra long....like almost comes down to entire length of the shorts.

Pictures?
 
compared to the other dons I have they are on the lighter side...like not as dense and is a bit hollow and squishy like rope laces from AJ11s
 
these dons are from a china batch - my pair's tags are in chinese - I wore them directly next to lakers authentics and i even inspect against onine High res pics and they match up.

I am pretty sure they are either look/see samples overseas or "defective" pairs with piece-mealed tags (or inconsistent drawstring length - the heat pair i returned were slightly shorter than my other pairs) that are not for retail sale. However, externally they look on point i don't know what reps are this close to actual "legit" pairs.

How the hell could basketball shorts ever be 80% cotton? 🤔

There are def reps that could pass as legit. Some cat on Grailed had some Magic and Raptors Dons awhile back that could pass as authentic (iirc he got called out for selling high quality rep jerseys too).
 
:lol: Yall made me check the tags on a couple shorts I got from eBay. All say 100% polyester. The font styles are slightly different but also have different years of production.

i remember, but there were still noticeable differences like the drawstring tips being gold when they should be silver ect. If these ones on TRR are rep then let this be a education session for the community here because I cant functionally tell the difference.

Here's my TRR pair next to a retail pair of blue laker dons (bought from oneness) and lakers regular home authentic (from Corporate) as better jerry logo reference. I pulled out my kobe tookie jersey and compared the logo stitching and they were identical stitching and applique texture…

So again, i cant tell man. Someone add more insight on other details if there are actually noticeable differences.

Speaking of which, TRR has a number of fake Dons up for sale right now (Magic, Bulls, Pistons, etc.) in several sizes. I bought a pair of white Warriors Dons and returned them. The side pockets had zippers (which that pair shouldnt, only the blue pair) and the inside tags were wrong (they were the current generation tags, instead of the black or white Just Don tag the OG pairs should have)
 
Rule of thumb:
If you see something too good to be true, it probably is. jaechiney23 jaechiney23



PO
This article is true. I bought a Givenchy Shark tee and white Warriors Dons from TRR and both ended up being fake which I had to return. I have gotten real Just Dons from TRR for good prices, including a first run pair of Grizzlies Dons
 
I’m also suspicious about these Pistons joints I got a while back. They look legit with the right tags but not 100% sure since I got them from Poshmark. Was this a 2022 release? Think the tags would be a dead giveaway if they were wrong

These are fake, the Pistons Dons didn't restock in 2022. IIRC, they dropped along with the Blazers Dons which havent restocked either
