After all the years of rockin the #13 with pride during the purple era.. I have realized that my Robinson jersey is a fake.



comparison with Real Bogut jersey... hmm missing some colors around the logo?







hmm... no tag on the inside




What do you guys think?

Bummer dude.

You would have thought Captain Obvious would have told me years ago...

Actually I think both are authentic. They added the silver lettering and the green side panels for the 2001-02 forgetable finish season.

Of course that was the season they were in first place in mid-March only to slide all the way to ninth.

Yeah I was just comparing it to my bogut one I bought... the big dog one was bought on ebay years ago.. I couldn't find any pics of the jerseys with just white lettering

The champion one is a replica anyway so it's also certainly possible they just made lower quality jerseys than Reebok does now.

uh your jersey is not a bootleg....back in the 1990s the champion company used to make NBA jerseys and since they couldn't make exactly like the real ones, they had to design them there own way so the jerseys they made looked slightly different from the real jerseys...my Ray Allen jersey (I have like 3) made by champion looks like your Glenn Robinson, thats why when you see a description for a nike or Reebox jersey it says authentic champion nba jerseys were never described as authentic. The stop making NBA jerseys some time in the 2000s.

I think what got me thinkin it was a fake was the lack of a silver outline on the white. thanks for the info guys..

I was under the impression that all champion jerseys were replicas. How much did you pay for the robinson. Depending on the price which should be pretty high that should be a bootleg.

i really can't remember... must have been 10 years ago.

Yeah, it's certainly not authentic because ONLY the NBA logo are on the authentic jerseys. The maker of the jerseys never has their logo on the jersey.

I had an authentic Big Dog jersey that I bought 10 years ago, still have it somewhere, and it was made by Starter. It was a true authentic from like the 96-97 season, because on the tag it had authentic Milwaukee Bucks jersey w/a little tag from those years.

Although the Bucks changed styles in 2001-02, I don't think that other one is a "true" authentic one.

^ Mine was an authentic home, so I wouldn't be able to compare the two.

oh I definately never thought it was an authentic... I just thought it was a fake champion because it was missing silver.
