NY Knickerbockers! I lived on Long Island at the time, and yes, those jackets were the shiznit.

I always imagined you to have really big biceps and wear baggy starter jackets. And I imagined bobby to have skinny arms and wear tight skirts.

There's nothing wrong with lifting weights, but there's a lot wrong with a cross-dresser from Pomona.

I'm pretty sure that most major cities had this going on...I had a Charlotte Hornets one. It was sweeeet.

I had UNC Tarheals baby!! That was when I went through a phase of being OBSESSED with NC.
I also had a sping Charlotte Hornets jacket.

Other members of my family had NY Rangers and Colorado Rockies.

I wanted a Charlotte Hornets one soooo bad.

And yeah, I don't think this was a regional fad by any means.

i had a 49er jacket that was reversible. mostly red and gold on one side, and white with some red and gold on the other. it sucked though, cause when my mom washed it, the white turned pink i didn't wear it after that.

I didn't have one, but if I did it would've been 49ers, cause well, I love them, and when this fad was going on, they actually won games.

The only way to go back then was Chicago Bulls or Charlotte Hornetts. I had the Hornetts. Why? I didn't even watch basketball. I think I just liked the colors. It was really pretty. I wonder what happened to it?

I had a Boston Celtics one and a Patriots one. My brother had a Dalla Cowboys one.


those jackets were the best..

I had an Iowa Hawkeyes Starter jacket... surprisingly I stopped wearing it when I was a Junior in HS and was dating an ISU freshman.

Charlotte Hornets. Like PM Mama, not because I liked the team, but because I liked the colors.
