Report on shorts sizing?

Well all this team USA stuff is championship pedigree to the max, the best players in the world (basically), and a special event. There also their newest tech in most of this stuff, it's just not as flashy as 2012 was.

Wonder what the quality of the shorts is. Not a big fan of the cheap reps they do for NCAA schools but it it's better than that I'd be in. Anybody able to speak to the quality of the rep jersey or shorts? And sizing on the reps?

Looks like most of their stuff is replicas and tees :-(

The price of the shorts coupled with the delayed release just baffles me. 2012 was so smooth with options at reasonable prices.

Thought the medal stand jacket looked nice... and it's $450 for no good reason

Went to Nike Chi this weekend. Very minimal supply of USA stuff. Really disappointing. Saw the shorts that are the same model as the USA ones just generic colors. Sizes seemed small, like the jerseys. Also, the hand wiping fabric on the shorts was odd to see, even though I know Jordan and other...

Personally, I think the blue set is much better with the darker back and lighter front. Fairly unique. Shame the whites are so boring.

Played in these and they were fantastic. Great support and so comfortable in both the upper and cushioning. Only issue I had was there was times where the flex in my forefoot seemed to be where the space between the airbags was so it felt a little odd. Great shoes for casual wear. Hope there's...

I remember the fakes being for everybody. The ones you see basically just matched people's demands. I'm curious to see if China can fake these to decent quality. It's a new Nike template, pretty unique cut and material, and the numbers look almost like they're rubberized and sewn on.

These prices on some of these things is insane. IIRC, the 2012 stuff went on sale before the olympics were even over.

Wonder if we're actually going to get a good amount of the higher quality shorts this year. Last year's selection was awful.

Still so disappointed in the selection this year

Duke, UNC, Illinois, and probably others are wearing updated throwbacks like last year Nike did for some teams. Wonder if they'll make them available for sale again?

Supposedly some of these are starting to pop up at outlets. Pretty funny if true. Wonder how much more of this type of pricing will lead to them reconsidering prices
