Replica Jerseys for Christmas in 1985

Submitted by Six Zero on
Did anybody pay $149.99 for an authentic team jersey this Christmas???? You should've jumped into your DeLorean and travelled back to 1985, where you could order a Michigan away jersey for the sweet price of... $12.99!! Check out block "C" on this page of the 1985 Sears Wish Book for all your Michigan apparel needs, at a time before team merchandising became the monster it is today: http://www.wishbookweb.com/1985_SearsWishbook/images/SearsWishbook.1985…

Yeah, I don't know how "authentic" this jersey really is. Though it's true that if you watch a game from the 1980s, it's striking how cheap-looking the uniforms were (and how ill-fitting the pads were, as well). Most players from that era looked like Frankenstein in them.
