    You’re right, it’s difficult to go from an authentic to a swingman. After purchasing my first authentic, I sold all of my swingman jerseys and upgraded across the board. By the way, I am in the market for a Mitchell & Ness 1963 LA Dodgers, Sandy Koufax Road gray jersey. If anyone can point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.

    Another great video. The comparisons you make are very helpful.
    I got another question. I hope it's ok. So, I'm size medium in the M&N swingman. Should I get the same size for the authentics? I heard the authentics are longer than SWs. I if get size 36(s) authentic, would it be very tight considering the Medium swingman fits perfectly fine for me?
    Thank you very much... Keep making great videos.

    @deezybears Před 2 lety +1

    Few questions: When exactly did M&N stop stitching the NBA Swingman jersey? I know Nike doesn't stich theirs now, but i believe in the past Adidas used to stitch theirs? (or am i completely wrong on that as well and have just been fooled this whole time?) One other thing, what about M&N's Throwback NFL Replica jerseys; (price-point normally $149) Are those not actually stitched either? Thanks man. New sub. Great content.

    • @JerseyConnect7
      @JerseyConnect7  Před 2 lety +1

      M&N stopped stitching their swingman in 2019 or 2020. Adidas did used to stitch their swingmans as well but in the mid 2010's they went with the Rev 30 Swingman jerseys which was starting to use the heat-press model for swingmans. So with the NFL Throwback replica's I'm not 100% sure, usually on the ads they have it'll state if its screen print/heat pressed/ or stitched. It's constantly changing depending on the jersey.

  • @omsuphabphant6064
    @omsuphabphant6064 Před 2 lety +6

    Question: I know M&N started heat pressing their swingman line around late 2019. I bought a few and the size is a little smaller compared to the stitched swingman jerseys that I have (I'm a size M as well) Do you know if the newer authentics are still the same size compared to the older authentics?
    Thanks man, and great content on this video!

    • @JerseyConnect7
      @JerseyConnect7  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks man. In my opinion, I think it hasn't changed when it comes to newer authentics. Feel like its still the same or at least similar. (others may beg to differ though). I know the swingmans changed when they were stitched vs heatpress, theres a slight difference, but I guess its trying it out at the end of the day. Everybody has different preferences, sizes, and other factors when it comes to sizing.

      On the sizing part its just gonna depend on your body type. Try it out and if it doesn't work, just return it. At least you'll get a better sense of what size to get. What brand swingman?
