OT - Michigan Gear You'd Like to See Again

Submitted by Black Socks on

What Michigan gear would you like to see made again?  I'm itching for some M gear but don't like much of what is offered.

 

1. I miss the "narrow" block M hats that were sold back in the late nineties.  IMO they had a classier appearance than the current ones.  The retro Bo hat had too flat a bill.

 

2. Can we get some sweet Dri Fit gear?  A small block M with minimal Adidas logos would be sweet too.

3. Let's go back to the block M on the shoulders of our away Jerseys.  That was the best one.  Looks much better than the current.

 

What about you?

Logo Athletic was awesome for like a year. Starter, for sure. Bulls. And Air Jordans. Obv. Also, of course, the Fab 5 and 89 team unis in basketball are outstanding, and frankly both iconic, to me. So yeah, those, but we know the school can't/won't officially acknowledge that team Fab Five team because, well, dang it. They can't. But...they did wear the same unis the year AFTER CWebb left, when it was still Juwan, Jimmy, Ray, Jalen, etc. So they could wear those, technically. It would be bold.

Everyone at my school had the Charlotte Hornets starter jacket. The only reason I could think of as to why there were so many hornets jackets is because my school's mascot was the yellow jackets. Still, it's Michigan.

Wow mine probably didnt last more than 2 years.  I wore the thing everyday and to play whatever sport I was playing at the time.  Hockey and football don't bode well for that cross stitching on the pure utter filth that were the sleeves.  The sheer awesomeness one experience from wearing this starter jacket was awesome.  Not to mention hiding ur pogs and slammer in the velcro front pocket was essential in school.

haahah pogs. This is definitely bringing back some great memories. I actually had an anaheim ducks jacket that I would wear when I was outside playing. I didnt care if that one got dirty. I kept my Michigan jacket as clean as possible. I remember my first time wearing the Michigan jacket was when I attended the 97 Michigan/Penn St game in happy valley. My dad bought it for me a couple days before we went to the game. A new jacket and a Michigan win=great weekend!

Got one for Christmas that I got to wear for a whole week. First day back to school some punk ass kid on the bus grabbed me by my jacket, yanked and tore a big hole in it. Happened right when we got to school so he was able to take off and not feel my wrath. Got some paper clips to fix it. I still wore it but it never felt right.

with the simple blue block lettering "MICHIGAN" across the front. They were as popular as blue jeans in my high school, and I grew up in East Lansing.
