1992 Jordan Olympic Jersey (with pics)

yes sir. This one is sewn on, as all authentic champion jerseys were from 92-93 and beyond I believe. The game worn olympic jerseys were in fact screened. This jersey was purchased in during the 92 olympics in Italy at a sporting outlet. Im under the impression that a VERY limited amount were made available at retail overseas.

I have seen Jordans game worn Olympic jersey. Compared to yours, there are some major differences. The jersey worn by Jordan had an additional tag in te tail that identified it as being made for the Olympics. Likewise, all the printing was screened, not sewn.

As for the tagging- i believe that all authentic champion jerseys prior to 93 did not contain the special tagging used on the player issued jerseys.

I included the 92 and 93 jordan authentic all star jerseys as examples.

Im not sure about the sewn on vs no sewn on version though. Apparently a sewn on authentic jersey was available in europe at the time (1992). The screen on was player only.

Either that, or I just bought a really good FAKE!

Its tough to see but the 93 jersey has the Utah tag next to the champion tag

Let me preface what I am about to say: I have bought and sold two Game Worn Jordan Olympic Jerseys in the past 12 years, one came with his charity letter. I have also sold a couple game-issued, Never worn jerseys.

I would say in my opinion that this is not a pro-cut and most likely some form of an authentic Champion jersey that someone other than the factory added the names and numbers. I have never seen a Champion authentic jersey that would have a different type of lettering than was actually worn on the court. This is their common practice.

Cool jersey, probably worth a couple hundred bucks. definitely not a pro-cut as MMONTE described.

you may well be right Joel. So we will say it is authentic champion.

Lemme ask you- how much did you get for the game issued Jordan Olympic jerseys? I would be interested in getting my hands on one

I have not had a game issued one in over five years, but I can tell you back then they sold for around $5000.00 each.
