Description
Retro Los Angeles Lakers Gold, Magic Johnson on the back — the shirt you reach for when the schedule gets serious.
Most people buy this for one reason — the games — and then end up wearing it well beyond them. The Los Angeles Lakers identity is unmistakable in Gold, and the lettering on the back does the rest. The graphics are applied in layers rather than printed flat, so the numbers sit slightly proud of the mesh.
Inside the neck there is taping instead of a label, which is the small thing you notice on hour three. The finish at the neck is taped and tagless, which is why it can be worn for hours without complaint. Whether it is for you or for somebody who watches every game, the shirt makes the same case: wear it often. It is the kind of shirt that ends up photographed more than most — worth knowing before you pick the colour. It is the kind of shirt that gets borrowed — worth knowing before you buy one for somebody else.
