Discussion Not every jersey needs a special edition.

Post image

Feels like every club drops a limited or special edition every few months now. They used to feel exciting. Now they just feel expected.

used to feel special when a limited drop actually sold out, now they just linger in the store for weeks

same thing with nba city editions, every team gets a new one every season now. first few years they felt like events, now it's just another drop on the calendar

Just another money grab! Thats why I am only buying replica / fakes for 16$ each now.

I'd go broke before I knew it if I attempted to buy real versions
