He is who confirmed it. None will have it this year. Honestly, we are lucky to even have an authentic option as he noted back in August they were not going to be made available.

I contacted Nike a few months ago, they said they were not planning on making authentic elite for UCONN. Maybe enough of us contacted them, I was shocked when I saw them this week. Hopefully they become popular and Nike decides to make a home version as well.

If you sent proof of purchase to Kyle he is mailing out the starter jackets separately. Said it would probably go out this week

Is this a repercussion of being in the American? I don't get it, in the 2000s UConn always had fresh stuff coming out yearly.

Probably not enough people were buying them. Even the most loyal uconn fans may only buy 1 every 5 years or so. I now only have 3.

If my understanding is correct, you're on the right track. I believe demand was not high enough at times and they've had a lot of quality control issues in the past, specifically with last year's uniforms themselves.
 
Didn't get either one yet but I live in Oklahoma...are the numbers / letters stitched or are they pressed ?

I was one who bought authentic jerseys every year, all the way back to when the Nike jerseys actually had players names stitched on the back, like Allen and Sheffer ones that I used to own.
I sold the majority of my vast collection over the past few years since my MS diagnosis and the related costs associated with being forced to "retire" from my machinist job, in order to raise some funds to help with medical bills.
I still have quite a few remaining, no Shabazz or Kemba's are left, they sold pretty quickly, but screen printed and authentic's are still in my collection, brand new with all retail tagging still attached, and still available for purchase...have not had much luck listing them on Ebay in recent weeks
Not looking to take losses on any NWT jerseys, though, I am not in that bad of shape...yet!!

Got my Starter jacket today. If not for the new logo I may have guessed that the time-space continuum was broken.

I received mine a couple of days ago. It is very cool and almost no one would connect the "mistakes".
 
Is there anybody that has a white Kemba #15 jersey in a medium or large that they would like to sell or trade. I have an extra blue Kemba large that I bought but really would like to have a white one.
 
It's not truly authentic as my brother pointed out there's no AAC patch or Some other patch he mentioned

It's better than any other option available AND has the aerographic and embroidered letters/numbers. That's authentic enough for me.

Plus all other authentic jerseys offered in the past have never had the conference patch or USA flag. Only the Nike swoosh.
 
Does anyone have a blue / white #13 Bazz in a Large they want to sell or a white Kemba #15 L? Been looking for several years now and haven't been able to find either. I've seen Kemba's out there but very few if any Bazz's ever.

I was only able to get an extra large since Kyle had already given out the smaller sizes. Anyone with a medium or large want to swap for an extra large? (I look like I'm wearing my dad's)

Authentic jerseys sold to the public never had the conference patch. UCONN also has worn the usa flag patch for many seasons, you can probably buy one similar on ebay and iron/sew on.
 
Looks like they are selling well, sites only have med and xxl available. Hopefully they'll make the white one available.

Authentic jerseys are sold out online in all sizes. Good job UCONN fans! You can still find the replicas.
