Throw back jerseys are all the rage across the United States. They are big business, too. Go into the top throw back jerseys stores in Philadelphia, Atlanta, Los Angeles, and the other cool urban centers in the United States, and youll find tourists, business men, and rap stars alike dropping $20,000 on what is essentially just clothing.
But thats just the thing. These throw back jerseys are not just clothing. They are artifacts from the a long gone era, when all of our heroes were still in the game and good and bad was a black and white issue. You didnt have to worry back then if Michael Jack Schmidt was shooting up at the gym. You didnt have to wonder if Wilt Chamberlain was going to pass his drug test. And you especially didnt have to wonder whether Jim Brown would just up and quit the running back position for personal reasons. Wait, strike that. These jerseys are gems from this pure and innocent past in sports. They are heart warming and comforting.
