Re: wearing game used memorabilia

Guilty as charged. Just "Commons" and nothing that I would sell to another. Now here's another question, has anyone tried on a G/U item just to see how it would fit on you but didn't wear it outside-just put it on to look in the mirror?

Yes! I'm guilty as charged... Purchased a pair of Minnesota Vikings Adam Thielen game-worn Nike cleats, same size as I wear, and tried them on ONCE just for the heck of it the day they arrived.

Hi,

the same for me - I got the game worn jersey for the price of a swingman.
Jersey is Cleanthony Early 2014-15, warm-up from Pablo Prigioni 2014-15.
Both are Steiner authenticated, the jersey is photomatched.
Not quite easy to find basketball stuff in average person's size, it took a little while. Both are size large.
I also have older jersey that I would never wear because they are irreplacable.

Here is an old photo I just got from a co-worker as I came back to work from a recent surgery a few weeks ago. I don't remember what I was thinking but here is me in my younger years, with braces, and a few co-workers, wearing Johnny Bench's game worn 1976 Cincinnati Reds jersey to a Reds game at Riverfront back in 1994. I remember it being all frayed up on the lettering and number 5 on the back from Bench's catching protector. Just wish I had it back! Seriously doubt I would wear it to a game today if I had it back.

Re: wearing game used memorabilia

when i sold a lot of basketball gear, i would frequently get questions from people about the length and width of jerseys because people would be buying them to wear them. interestingly, i found a lot of that stuff was sent overseas to asia, or to asians in the US.
