At Nike prices I see. Two things I will not do, buy Citco gas and wear Nike products. I would rather run out of gas naked than use these products.

I will not buy a Nike product. They overcharge kids who cannot afford $150 shoes and give the money to the Oregon's and Ohio St's, so they can have different uniforms and shoes every game. Great marketing, but no conscience. See the recent article in Off Topic Gibberish. They are helping destroy college sports, as we know it.

These are $75. Seems fair given the market....
NFL jersey over $100, MLB and NHL close to $200-250, NBA around $100.

I guess I'm the complete opposite of most people who have commented on this thread so far. I would much rather buy Nike UD gear than the off brand stuff UD fans had to buy for years. I realize some people think its too expensive but if you just search or wait for discount codes online you can usually get 20 to 30 percent off.
Btw the two original links to the jerseys are basically the same place. Fanatics contracts with UD(and many other schools) to be the online store through the UD athletics website. It's rare to get a discount through the UD site but the Fanatics site has frequent sales and discount codes.
Also if you're older than the players wearing the jerseys in the actual games you should not be wearing that jersey.

Hmmmm, whom made Dayton #11 popular? Good thing NCAA rules no longer allow for the actual player's name to be printed on the back of the sold jersey. That's an entirely different can of worms.

If you are ever in Dayton there is a store very close to the Dayton Mall called The Rally House that has a lot of UD apparel for many age groups. Highly recommend this store.

No they do not. Kids are free to pay the price, and I am free to not purchase any of their high profit clothing. Daughter gave me a pair of Nike shoes for Christmas, returned them the next day and got New Balance. Understand that many (most) folks like their product, I just happen to be one that doesn't.

My kids don't wear or want anything that doesn't say Nike on it. And in most cases, it better be Nike Elite.
Me, too. They really are nice.

I was all set to buy a new logo jacket, but when I noticed the Nike Swoosh was bigger that the new UD logo, I said screw it! If they want me to wear their logo, they need to give me the darned thing...........

Man - some of you are so grouchy. Who cares if you don't like Nike or won't support them. I'm sure some folks appreciate being able to get a real replica jersey rather than some off brand shiny crap that doesn't even look like the uniform. Sheesh.

New Balance has offshored a lot of their shoe manufacturing overseas in the last few years, nevermind the huge importation of foreign materials in the few remaining shoes they manufacture stateside. So in many cases the $150 NB shoe is made by the same sweatshop Chinese labor as a Nike shoe.
If you want a 100% American sneaker you'll need to order a set of Herseys and wait 6 months to get them.

If I ever spent $150 on a pair of sneakers I'd have to shoot myself, Lots of folks think Nike is fine, I'm just not one of them.

So you're not going buy any of the Nike/Jordan retros that I sell on ebay for $300 or more?
Btw I completely understand that most people won't spend $150 on sneakers but there are plenty of Nike shoes that don't cost that much.

Shocka, I hate to break it to you but there are a significant number of 18-22 year olds wasting away weekend afternoons in the Ghetto that would STRONGLY disagree with you... myself included while I was there.

Does this qualify as sleeveless? Because it certainly qualifies as female!

Archie says you're welcome, and more jersey #'s are on the way.
Nike brand is a prestigious one in sports. One only needs to travel North until they smell it, then West until they step in it, to find an inferior brand like Adidas.

For soccer stuff but that may be the case, but thank goodness UD uses Nike gear. The recruiting/AAU team war has been taken over by Nike and Under Armour. Right or wrong players are many times steered to colleges by their AAU coaches who have their teams sponsored by mainly Nike and Under Armour and are making money from that relationship. The poor schools that are sponsored by Adidas are often at a disadvantage in recruiting due to the smaller number of teams/camps that Adidas now run compared to the other two. Plus Adidas has some of the worst basketball uniforms I have ever seen.
