    Just curious, but how do you know they suck really bad? Do the reebok's always suck or just this one? I can't decide which one to get.

    Reebok's replicas suck in general. The fabrics feel like plastic and the names and numbers are pressed on the jersey where as the nike swingman's fabrics are much better and the names and #'s are stitched on.

    Think they'll have sizes other than 3x, 4x, and 5x? Some of us like for our jerseys to fit like jerseys, as opposed to dresses.

    Also, where can I find the nike rewind swingman steve francis jersey in sizes besides the aforementioned? It's really frustrating to see the current trend in over-sized jerseys mostly because, in my opinion, most of us can't pull off the "I'm wearing clothes three sizes too big, and how do you like that" fashion.

    Yeah, the swimgmans are awesome but only one problem......they come in medium fit but they are all 2x in length meaning if your not that tall, itll look like a friggin dress. An employee of Champs told me that medium was the smallest size and length. Someone outta tell Nike that we are all not 6 foot tall. They need make swingmans that fit 5'4 - 5'7 bodies.

    And that's why I now buy the Reebok replicas. I'm not 6' tall.

    sorry to bring this thread back, but has anyone gotten the reebok jerseys yet? the nikes are coming out in december but i dont know if i should wait till then to pay extra for something that is only marginally better.
    I have an old yao (but it says MING) swingman but since it is the old uni, its ugly and only looks good on a wall. i might actually wear the new one, so anyone got any advice for which one to get? the reeboks are about $50 and the swingman is $70+.
