Just was inspired to put it on this morning. Not a bad fit for 24 years. Anyone got any old Natty stuff that hasn't seen the light of day for bit. Let's see it.

Wow, that's in good shape! The color has faded on mine and it's beginning to get those little holes . . . but I've got a dozen more UConn shirts.

I still have a sweatshirt from the 1988 NIT championship. Younger fans will not understand what a big deal that was back in the day.

88 NIT, very impressive. Let's have a look.

I still have my 1999 National Championship gear but don't really wear it any more. I got tired of listening to my wife asking me why I'm wearing a 20+ year old shirt.

Key is keep all t-shirts that mean anything, then 20 years doesn't seem so long ago.
My 1990 BE Champs T-shirt was the go-to for this year's tourney run. The 99, 2004, 2011 & 2014 are the 'newer' stuff.

I thought you'd both be fatter. Well done!
I do not have the heart to throw this out. It’s been sitting in a file cabinet at work forever. Obviously I have not worn it for many years. 1990 was my senior year and I was in the student section for all 7 post season games that year…

I have a few treasures like that. UConn and Yankees. I retired them and then vacuum sealed them. No clue if that helps preserve them but a nice surprise for whichever relatives have to clear my house out when I kick it.

OP: i believe that was back when Starter was still around. they always tried harder to come up with interesting designs. not like that Nike crap (No. 1). no originality.
i still have my 99 tee but it's all faded now and starting to get a little ratty. the hat (brown and black) i just wore today to work. i remember i couldn't get it right away after the Duke game because they were so popular. i was able to get one eventually though sometime in May when Bob's Stores still had about 8 left from their latest (and probably last) shipment. i was ecstatic i was finally able to get one.

My 1999 championship shirt got thrown out just because it had a few little tiny small holes in it and was faded and did not fit me anymore but other than that it was still fantastic.

I had to get the reissue of that last year. My original had completely fallen apart. That one looks in great shape!
