Adidas Jerseys

Tue Oct 31, 2006 12:15 am

Just wondering how are the new adidas jerseys (replica and swingman only) if anyone has bought one. Are they just the same as the Reebok ones or made better or made worse? Feedback is much appreciated.

Many Thanks & Cheers :chug:

i was just about to post a topic like this, for my birthday i was thinking of getting an authentic jersey off nba.com, a personalised one, and on the nets page they have a reebok and an adidas one. i would tend to lean towards a reebok one, but yeh are the adidas ones any good?

Yeah the adidas logo is a eyesore on the jerseys compared to RBK logo. I'm wondering how is the availability of NBA jerseys in Canada? I have a friend who is going to Vancouver and I asked to get me a few. Also is there a variety of players to choose from or just superstar and Canadian related players like Nash and Bosh? Another thing are the shops in Canada selling the Reebok jerseys cheaper because of the new Adidas branded apparel?

Your reply or anyone else on the boards is much appreciated :)

For me, I wanted a new Raptors jersey, but all they had was Bargnani. If you want Mo Pete and Bosh, right now, it seems you can only get them in Centre Sports in Air Canada Centre. . .But Imma check back on Thursday, Cause I want a Mo Pete Jersey, Already got my Bosh.

I didn't see any other team except the old Reebok Swingman ones, only the new Bargnani jerseys I seen, which sucks at the moment. They are trying to push his sales

Hey Fitzy have you ordered from NBA Store before? Just wondering how it is in particular the shipping to Oz? Many thanks if you could give me some info about it.

Try SportChek, they always have a good selection or if your near Yorkdale down the street past the autoshop across from yorkdale theres a store called Si Vous Play Sports. Its in a wearhouse district, past a bunch of houses but the jerseys are cheaper

o..ok.. i see they are the same material as the Mitchel and Ness Throwbacks.

Sun Nov 05, 2006 1:47 pm

yeh they are a bit like them

ive got another question with the nets jersey i was looking at, it says they are made out of nylon polyester mesh, would that mean they are really thin and not really good for wearing around, sort of like the middle part of authentic nfl jerseys, or would they be pretty thick?

Sportcheck never has anything I want. . I haven't been to a Sil Vou Plais Sports in a while, I didn't know there was one by Yorkdale, I only knew of the one inYorkgate, and one in Brampton

yeah the ones off kickz101 i would say the material is much thicker than a reebok replica but compared to a swingman it only a bit thicker. I can't remember the name of the company who makes the nba jerseys like on kickz101 which seems to be the only brand we get in OZ, there products are always branded under the NBA.
