    Swingmans are between replica and authentics, stitched numbers/lettering, instead of printed with the replicas. They didn't have replicas yet and those go for like $220 I believe

    It's not on the official store site yet, but think would be soon, I'm sure the store clerk wouldn't know since it's run by Fanatics now.....

    'Normal' font helps as well.

    they should have designed the shorts similar to these..just take out the white from the bottom opening...and make the red on the sides come up more but not in a diamond shape...thats what it kind of looks like in that pic ^^

    Got my black swingman. The replica one is just fugly to me. Wide ugly shoulders, v-neck looks weird and printing looked cheap.


    Will be wearing it on Sunday!

    Why do the replicas always have to have the fat shoulders? Looks hideous for $70

    Agreed! That's why I posted RocketGirl's tweet, to show the Replica's shoulders. The wide shoulders kill that jersey. Marketing probably wants a top that covers people up more, but it looks bad. If they are doing to do that, they might as well do those "football jersey style/cut" crossovers as Rockets jerseys. I've got a Yao version of those and they are cool.

    Looked like this
