Milwaukee Bucks Home and Road (1986-1993)

After having some good seasons between 1980 and 1986, the Bucks decided to make changes to their uniform (and roster).

However, the team struggled on the court between 86 and 93. And ironically these jerseys became very rare because of the bad performance of the team. Plus, they were rarely sold outside Wisconsin and so only a few had their hands on them.

Due to the decrease in demand, only a few Milwaukee Bucks Home and Road jerseys were produced and few of them remain today.

Indiana Pacer Home and Road (1990-1997)

The 1990 to 1997 version of the Indiana Pacers jersey is the favorite uniform amongst collectors. The jersey is nicknamed the ‘FloJo Jersey’ because it was designed by track star Florence Griffith Joyner:

This jersey embodied two prominent stripes on the left side of the upper and lower garments and was widened out to make a triangle. The home jersey was white and the road one blue. This jersey proved to be a lucky charm for the Indiana Pacers, evident from their records during these seasons.

Philadelphia 76ers Home and Road (1991-1994)

During three seasons from 1991 to 1994, the Philadelphia 76ers jersey was redesigned by Champion Products and marked the departure from their classic jerseys.

For some reason, the new jerseys were not appreciated by fans, resulting in no demand and low production. The background of the jersey remained red while in the front a multi-color star was featured in front of a royal blue field that curved up from the shorts.

These jerseys are very hard to find in a good condition as there were only a few who bought them back in the 90s. And here’s one Major League Baseball vintage jersey collectors should pick up on their travels too:

Los Angeles Dodgers, Road Jersey (1970s-1990s)

The Los Angeles Dodgers didn’t experiment much with their uniforms between the late 70s and early 90s. But during that time, the Dodger’s home Jersey was more popular than the road, and eventually, the rarity of the road jersey made them collectible.

With the bright white lettering, it is one of the most iconic jerseys in the sports world.
