If you got something, and its authentic no need in dropping that much just because its mitchell and ness.

Not sure if they were limited but i remember them dropping. i could be getting old tho
 
The 8403 collection that dropped in 2003 did include the 45, in the authentic and swingman version. The authentic version still wasn't very heavy and didn't feel like an authentic Champion or Mitchell & Ness quality.

Nike skipped the specifications of the original 45 jersey and just kept it as simple as possible, even with being an authentic. So it wasn't nearly as specific or detailed as this current Mitchell & Ness.

As far as the production of those go, they were just as equally allocated as the other ones were. Some of the 8403 collection went on sale in my area, and that's how I scooped my red 23. But once they hit the sale, they got cleaned up and never were seen after 2004.

You got to remember also, when the nbastore.com allowed the ability to customize any authentic jersey with literally almost any name/number, a lot of people created the 45 Jordan on their own. Nike owned the rights, so it looked as if those custom jerseys were official Jordan 45's but they were just customs. But that ability to create those stopped after the NBA caught on and pulled the plug.

Good looking AT, I remember seeing the other 3 in the swingman/authentic at every mall in The Land for months but never recall or remember the 45 smh
 
I still have my swingman versions of the white 45, black pinstripe and red cursive rookie jerseys from the 8403 collection.

But I do intend on picking up this 45 eventually; I probably need to pick up the entire M&N Jordan collection :smh:

I'll take a note of that. Are there any others that aren't worth picking up for whatever reason? I haven't actually seen any in person :\

the home and away 97-98 suck purely based off the NBA logo on the shoulder being very low and it looks off. No idea why they did that. Other than that its decent.

the screen printed rookie is amazing IMO.

the all stars are nice.

all in all, i just do not like the numbers and how big the name on the back of the black and pinstripe. looks terrible

Thanks for the insight! On the stock photo on the NBA Store, the name does look pretty large on the black pinstripe; it looks kind of off.

The three I'd to get my hands on are this 45, the 89 "The Shot", and the rookie jersey.
 
Any of you guys know what size jersey they generally use when they frame them? Dancing around with that idea right now but I have a 48. I would imagine a 44 would've been a "better" size to frame though.

The dimensions are always off. On my blue 50th anniversary kobe the number on the front was at my waist :lol:

And their newer jerseys don't even sit right when worn. Mesh is too stiff like mentioned before, and the armpit area is too high
