Authentic is basically player version. Swingman is fan version.
So the authentic ones you have to collect and the swingman ones you can play in and wear
EXACTLY!
@Michael Trettin wuts wrong with u? how u gonna call a basketball jersey halloween clothes wtf get outta here wierdo
@@anonymous_1966 you right.
Authentic is basically the Old swingman jerseys.
They’re both real, but different quality that’s all there is to it
agreed. and some people want that piece that they hang there hat on and others want to buy a collection to rock. swingman makes that an affordable option.
@@CapSwagUsa man I am not spending $350 on an authentic NBA jersey if I want to get a jersey I'll just go to Etsy and get it for half the price
@@MrET114 market out there for everyone some people wont ever do that they want it brand new with tags and genuine. I think we are assuming that its alternative when really there is a customer for various options.
Thanks for watching!
I’m addicted to Mitchell & Ness NBA jerseys. Just started a collection and I can’t stop buying them. Lol
me too
is authentic really worth it?
Same here lol
Me too bro .. got 4 authentic for the collection.
CG NUG Review shit hella expensive tho
What I’ve noticed from reading reviews is that the swing man is meant to be worn, and the authentic are meant to be collected. Also the higher price tag indicates a more premium feel. I personally would rather go with the swing man and save the money but that’s me.
spoken like a scholar, thanks for watching my guy don't forget to subscribe we dropping heat on their headtops.
The authentic is meant to be worn just as much as the swingman is. LMAO They introduced that line for people who didn't want to pay the premium for an authentic, but could have a similar look. They also made them for those who didn't want to necessarily buy the replica with screen printing.
Wearing them feels the exact same fr, I'm an avid jersey collector and I'm telling you the only reason to buy the $300 is to frame and hang
Yeah but don't the swingman jerseys last a much shorter time? Genuine question, I'm trying to pick between the two. Thanks dudes and thanks Cap Swap for the vid
The 2000-01 looks like that for a reason, because they took the boarder from around Sixers logo that the 1997-98 jersey. It’s just like today when company’s make New Jersey’s for team. That’s why the dates are different.
The biggest difference for me is the actual shape of the jerseys. The swingman has larger shoulders, the authentic had thinner shoulders and a more hour glass shape to the body of the jersey
2 different styles of jerseys, authentic is from late 90s, swingman is early 2000s.
I collect Retro J's and just started rocking Authentic M&N Jordan jerseys to rock with goodies, slim fit jeans and my J's. I'm addicted to them!!!!! I have to have the Authentic because I feel like if I'm going to do it, I'm doing it right. I already have 8 or 9 Authentics. One Swingman Bulls Rodman and I can DEFINITELY tell the difference. I feel it and I see it. The weight is the biggest thing.
Which one should I choose Bird or Iverson
I can’t believe he said he struggle to see the difference.. lol I can spot a swing man any where an I can spot a authentic jersey, just like fake Jordan’s.
Big difference is the fact that one is 97-98 and the rep is 00-01 jersey were alot different for those years anyway. He should of compared the authentic 00-01 jersey
I always look at the shoulder straps the authentic ones are more narrow and the less expensive ones have them wider
I've got an authentic M&N Allen Iverson 01NBA Finals edition Jersey and it's my pride and joy. Happy to see them selling a cheaper alternative though.
DamonM Roger agreed!
Can you do a review on the Nike dri-fit Authentic? Are they better than Mitchell and ness?
have you got kobe or mj jerseys???
What about the ones with ADDIAS on them are their worth more or less?
What about the numbers and letters, I know on the authentic jersey the numbers and letters are stitched on. Is the swingman stitched or heat pressed on?
I need a few jerseys..Do you ship to NC?
Correct MN sizing info!!!
I recently received my MN 96-97 Kobe Authentic player Jersey 8 in Size M (40) and it fits perfect. Not tight or baggy, it just looks like it fits well. I am 6 feet, 160 lbs, waist 30-31 and broad shoulders. I plan to wear only t-shirts underneath but if I was to wear a hoodie it might be to tight. In that case I would go with a L.
I also tried on a random MN Swingman Jersey in size M and L. For these in particular I wear a size L. The M fit but it was a little to tight in the chest and midsection, and it just looked to short.
In summary, the MN Authentic player jerseys are slightly bigger overall (in length and width) than the MN Swingman jerseys. A lot of people say they fit the same but they do not! Knowing this will help especially if you are borderline between sizes.
Also, be careful when people say authentic MN jerseys because that doesn’t always mean that they are referring to the “Authentic player jersey” line. Often times they are referring to the Swingman jerseys which are also authentic but different than the Authentic player jerseys. The tag on the front bottom left will let you know which one they are actually referring too.
I hope this helps!
Hey so I usually wear a large and I fit a M&N swingman in large too but now do you think I should get a M size authentic player jersey? Im 5'8 & 175 lbs broad shoulders. Should I go for medium???
Justin Sta. Cruz Based on your height and weight I would say Medium but if you have a very thick mid section I would go for a large for comfort.
I’m pretty short g, I’m 5’1 and 125lb what would you recommend to buy and which type of jerseys would be a little loose but not too loose. Would really help if you could respond
J Jax I just bought a 97-98 Mitchell and Ness Jordan jersey in a XL. I’m 5’7 and about 190 pounds. I’ve read that they run slim. I hope I bought right. Won’t get it till August and if I had to exchange it I would be out of luck. I think the Jordan jerseys were only released due to “The Last Dance”
ovo seidel I would go small in either jersey. Both will probably be a slightly loose fit on you.
back in 1998 an authentic NBA jersey was $145.
times have changed my man !
I dropped $299 on an Adidas Rev 30 Authentic from the NBA Store Sacramento Kings Cousins and $205 on a Rev 30 Authentic Paul Pierce Celtics. They gotten alot more expensive over the years.
Daniel Francella Damn I wish it was the same price now but times change for the worst in a lot of things
Daniel Francella Bet you also want a 1998 salary
Word 145 to 150
Can i order the Jersey ? Where the link web?
swingman 4 life
Do they have the same length?
Where is your shop
Well Mitchell n Ness both lines will still be Replicas regardless what they call it. Original Jersey for 76ers was Champion(R)
Is their a diff of buying a M&N swingman from the nba store vs from the actual M&N site ??? I got a swingman from the site and the logo and letters was sewn on the edges & I bought one off nba store and the letters & logo were fuckin iron pressed on it looks like . What’s going on here ???
So if I'm buying a jersey strictly to get it autographed, which would you recommend... would you say paying the additional $170 would be worth it in that case?
Pat Collins i would go with the on court in this case. The autograph will make this item a collectors item and the value makes sense at that point.
Great video, thanks. What about the difference in shoulder strap sizes? That’s what I noticed first.
97-98 is when they had the skinnier straps. I think they switched to the larger straps in 2000.
Difference is the cut on shoulder and the sixers logo.hwc is bigger
what I was wondering was when you see Magic footage his jersey looks a certain way. When you see a photo of an authentic M&N jersey it looks different in style, more like the baggier style of jersey that you see today. Its almost like the shape isn't the same. Does authentic mean they actually model if off the actual worn jerseys?
authentic means they model it off the jersey that was worn at the time. They try and replicate the look and feel of the exact jersey. thanks for the comment !
Wait so Mitchell and Ness has never made any on court jerseys but they’re the most expensive ????? Why ???? Someone please tell me before I give up on all sports apparel
can you make a video to see how it fits
Hi Alex, you can check our website to see size measurement. :) Capswag.com :)
You failed to mention ones 97 98 and the other is 2000 2001 that's why the logo and shoulder size is different
What’s the sizing on the swing man like? I’m 5”7 about 210. Large?
there is a size chart on our site my guy capswag.com check it out.
small detail, the logos are embroidered on one and on the other they are glued, after 2 washes they fall off
Not so small detail at all. But i have not heard of anyone else having this issue ill keep an eye out for other people with same problem, thanks for your comment.
Damn my mans got a fire ass playlist bumpin bangers only
One song played in the background..
Do you have Mitchell and ness football jersey videos?
check the video list there are some foot ball jerseys as well!
Yo cap! I bought a Timberwolves sleeved jerseys of an official website but it's through eBay and I checked out the jersey it real I compared it to fakes and authentic and stuff and it's defo a swingman jersey but on the tag at the bottom it has the adidas logo and the NBA logo but it doesn't have a size symbol now I'm not sure if it's an older jersey or what but when I googled people wearing the jersey there's had it so I'm just wondering if you could help me out and let me know what u think I have here?
not sure too sure about that one bro, how much did you pay for it?
Cap Swag Tv where can I buy authentic NBA jersey cause when I try find them all that comes up is game worn ones which are too expensive I just want one they wear on the court
i loved your video man
appreciate that bro!
Trippin @ 0:34. As if we can't see that the cheaper ones shoulders are twice as wide ⬅️📏➡️😂
You can see the differents in the shoulder
The $300 one has the same quality that players wore on the court and iverson also wore it during late 90s,the swingman is not embroidered and m&n wanted it to matvh with swingmans of other brands so they made the same quality
Wish you would of xoomed in with the camera so we could see more details. But good video, very informative.
Are all authentic 100% polyester, including shooting jerseys?
materials are different on every year. they try and replicate the look of the jersey but most that i have seen are polyester
The first minute is establishing he has 2 jerseys, 1 that's 300 and 1 that's 130 and of the 2 one is more expensive than the other, although they almost look the same one is 300 and the other 130 but you should definitely understand that there is a difference between the one thats 300 and the one thats 130 but don't let that take away the fact that they are 2 different jerseys.
The Swingman is based on the style after the Authentic your comparing it too.
If you notice the wordmark-logos "SIXERS" are not the same.
The Authentic has a patch like logo. This style came after the "shooting stars" version.
After the "patch", they went to the logo(which is bigger) on the Swingman. The most Authentic jerseys, historically, are sewn/have embroidered wordmark-logos and numbers-letters for names on the back. Others were silk screen. By the late 90's early 2000's, sublimation.
Correct me if I'm mistaken because It's been literal years since I bought a jersey (1990's). But as I look at this isn't the authentic team logo/name/number embroidered and sewn on while the swingman has printed team logo/name/numbers? If that's the case then this guy really needs to find another line of work if that huge difference isn't noticeable. However, if they're both sewn on logos/names/numbers then I can see how it will be difficult to distinguish the two.
There 2 different eras of jerseys
And the swinman is embroidered
@@thesuperghost ok
Where is your store located? I live in the Philly area.
We have stores in Ocean City, NJ and Wildwood, NJ on the boardwalk. But we also have a Berlin, NJ location at the Berlin Mart. You can also shop our online store: www.capswag.com
located at the jersey shore in ocean city nj and wildwood nj but you can order online atwww.capswag.com/collections/nba-vintage-throwback-legend-swingman-basketball-jerseys
Is the NBA logo ironed on or is it stitched in on the swingman?
That's what I was wondering also because if anything is ironed on then this guy is blind as fuck.
@@DarkWater4Eva Heat Pressed on all swingmans
Dude, you’re in the apparel industry, and if you “can’t even tell the two apart,” then you need to get your eyes checked or find a new industry. Give me the authentic all day.
nickschlick your insight is staggering bro. Keep up the good work!
@@CapSwagUsa the funny thing is that you can't tell them apart I sincerely hope this guy but a 130$ jersey for 300$
@@CapSwagUsa I agree with nick. The jerseys have huge differences. You a dumbass for missing them and misleading potential purchasers.
@@CapSwagUsa The quality is on par? JOKES
@@americancountryball2077 I hope I can go to his shop and get the 300 dollar one for 130 since he obviously can't tell the difference. 😅😅😅😅
1s stitch & 1s heat pressed thats the difference plus theres red trim around the "Sixers" on the Authentics
That’s the old version of the swingman where they used to stitch the swingmans.
Thank u for clarifying!!! This video helped me make my decision
braposo23 what do you decide?
Did*
Because I'm trying to pick one as well
Authentic
Mitchell & Ness is not for people on a budget. You go in there with $$$$ and get what you want.
Yes brother, that is why we try our best to make alternatives. :)
I need that Allen Iverson jersey and that Larry Bird one
Is there a way to obtain a ‘champion’ brand one?
Hi Joel, sorry but we don’t carry them
Type a message
@@CapSwagUsa tYPe a MeSsAGe lmao
so the cheaper one isnt stitched ?
Carlos Aguilar it's stitched, but not multi-layered stitched on the logo and number outlines.
I can tell you one thing for sure that makes the Authentic worth getting over the swingman. I bought a Mutumbo Nuggets swingman, and the details on the lettering, the color outline I think the numbers on the back are white, detailed/outlined in blue, the blue is just painted on, I wore it to the gym with it one day, the next day I noticed some of the blue paint had chipped off. I was livid.
authentics are much better
Should length big difference, I’d rather have the slimmer shoulder
I got authentic San Antonio Spurs Tim Duncan White Black Grey Jersey
Anyone knows the cost bc a guy is trying to sell me some for the cost
buying an authentic jersey is tuff these days make sure he is an authorized dealer lots of fakes on the market.
I just got the Miami Heat Shaquille O'Neal Mitchell & Ness Black 2005-06 Hardwood Classics Swingman Jersey had to see why they called Swingman I was about to cancel my order
Where tf do I buy a swing man Kobe jersey? There either all sold out or have smaller size....😔
sold out but we will be restocking some heat!
One thing I've noticed about M&N jerseys is that they look like women's dresses (coca cola cut). Other brands (Nike , reebok , Adidas, champion) are straight. But all of these are really nice
Where do u even buy authentic jerseys
The strap thicker on the swingman
What is the difference between buying a mitchell and ness authentic compared to say a nike authentic? Is it just the brand or does it have significant "authentic" meaning? Am looking at buying my 1st jersey and want to get the most authentic one i can. Thanks.
beamernz1 if your going to buy an authentic jersey the brand doesn’t really make a difference. Both those brands will be using top of the line material and quality will be very good.
8kings23 ok thanks for that. Am leaning toward the nike version...
beamernz1 which jersey did you want to get? Also make sure to get it from an authorized dealer. There’s so many fakes out there.
in the end some like polo ralph lauren and some like polo association ..choose wisely.
Yes, that's true. But these are made for everyone who likes to wear this, right? ;)
I'm 5'9 160lbs what size jersey should I get?
check out our sizing chart hope this helps!
www.capswag.com/pages/size-chart
@ PUNNANA DESTROYER5000 Your a size 44 (Large) or go up to 48 (XL) for a loose fit.
Mitchell and Ness runs true to size! I recently ordered a Swingman and sized up because I thought they would run smaller but they don’t! I had to return it for a smaller size.
those Mitchell jerseys are not based off jersey from back in the old days smh they solid no mesh jerseys witch as years went on they changed the jersey to be able to breath
throwback jersey 👍🏻
👍🏻 The best jerseys on the market
Yes, glad you felt it! :)
I like the narrow shoulder of the original, but i wear a 2xl in nike, reebok,champion, regular Adidas.. but Mitchell and ness not even close to fitting the swingman fit sucks.
Simply the straps are thinner in authentic. This is the easiest way to spot swingman or authentic from long range. If you can’t see much difference... well, I don’t know what else to say :) still thank you for video
The reason the straps are different because the straps are bigger on the 00-01 jersey regardless of authentic or rep. He was comparing two completely different jerseys lol
Where is your store ? I'm eye balling that Larry Bird jersey.
The store shown in this video is on the Ocean City Boardwalk in Ocean City NJ. Check the website for more details!

Cap Swag TV aw man I was literally just in Jersey I'll have to check you out when I go back.
They are in philly...
On 12th Street
You can tell right from the back that there different you can look right threw the 130$ one
i buy cheap shirts from DHgate lol, it's same anyway barring a few stitch errors but you can actually work out in a 20 dollar shirt, wtf are you gonna do with a 350 dollar ripoff shirt, I'd be afraid to get mayonaise on it
LOL! That is the point!
Quality of Swingman worth every penny.
nahh swingmans suck
Envia para o Brasil?
Tem whatsapp?
I have both the swing man and the authentic jerseys. Both are great
Which One would you recommend me getting
@@yetyetpinappleskeet7251 definitely authentic
I was upset once I discovered even the "authentic" are not great or real compared with the actual on court Jersey (procut).
Wow you must be from merica!
You can't tell a difference? Lmaooo
It's my opinion, brother. Yours might be different. ;)
@@CapSwagUsa sure, but for some Authentic jerseys, they use an entirely different fabric than the swingman (which seems to be the same for every jersey in that collection line).
Curryy and D. Rose's rookie authentic jerseys both have a dazzle fabric without the mesh fabric as opposed to the swingman jersey (which has the standard mesh fabric)
So the swingman is not a print on right? Just wanted to make it clear because i don't like screen printed jerseys
Christian Argayosa it's stitched good quality it's worth the 130 compared to 300
Christian Argayosa its an appliqué stitched on material, not the vinal or screen printed.
The swingman jerseys used vinyl numbers and stitching. The authentic Stitching is different. With swing man jerseys after a few washed the numbers get wrinkled and scratched. Authentic numbers do not.
The swingman is sublimation. Basically the design is stamped on a twill patch then sewn to the jersey. The authentic uses multi layer tackle twill to build the design
Nope is not
Easy comparison, ones worth the money, the other one isn’t.. dealers choice.
You can wear your Authentic Jerseys on but you'll still never fill em..
- Michael Jerk Jordan
Swingman used to be stitched
last i check mitchell ones still are.
I hate the wide shoulder Jerseys so much but not as much as short sleve jerseys
i love them
Thanks, bro!
Dude they are different jerseys from different years. The 01 jerseys were made out of that shiny material not mess hence it is swingman. The authentic jersey you have is complete different as it was 4years earlier. You can't compare these two without that knowledge
Stephen A Smith im aware of the year difference and ill make note of that on the next review. Thanks for watching!
It's all good man. You can definitely see how the quality is different between the 01 authentic and swingman. I like your content and would enjoy seeing more comparison videos, I've been trying to build my authentic collection and I'm trying to decide what to get next so a close look would be good. Thanks.
They could combine the two in to one lol the price 300 lol
black friday is coming who knows? check out the site and make sure you are on the mailing list

adidas swingman .same size????
similar in size i would say!
Cap Swag TV I’m 5”10 150 pds which Mitchell and ness swing man will fit perfectly not to big not to small? Thanks
ㄴㄴ 아디다스 스윙맨 m 입는데 나이키 미첼네스는 L사이즈 입습니다 문재는 아디다스m은 적당히 잘맞는느낌인데 미첼m은 꽉 타이트하게 맞는느낌이고 미첼L은 여유가있는 루즈핏처럼 입게되네요 m과L중간사이즈가 있었으면 좋겠는데 이상하게 미디엄 라지 갭이 미첼네스가 크더라구요... 아 벌써 3년전이시네요....
One is stitched all the way the other is heat pressed. Big difference on the way the are made.
Actually not true, that may have changed from the time that i did this review but swing man was stitched down as well. Both name and number were stitched down.
Did mitchel and ness make the jerseys for the nba at one point in time? How can they be actually authentic if they were not the nbas fabricator
Swingman jerseys are cut short! So buy one size bigger
Can you please lower the volume or turn the music off.
no.
Cap Swag TV lol someone is talking and the music is too loud. Yeah right. No worries.
@@veronicaisl its good to see you have a sense of humour this is a fleeting attribute these days. Ima think of you on the next video and keep the music to a level that is acceptable that's a promise!
Cap Swag TV thank you. You’re the subject of the video and all of our attention is on you then it’s kinda rude if someone is talking and someone is playing the music too loud. Nice review btw. I got few M&N jersey. I like swingman but i got 2 MJ’s authentic. Cheers
The thickness in the shoulder looks more like the authentic jersey. That's how they were made in that era. The authentic doesn't look as real. Look it up.
The swing man is much wider, it isn’t stitched and the sixers logo is much larger and doesn’t have a red outline
Harry CM most of those differences are actually due to the jerseys being representing two different seasons. There are M&N authentics of the wider shoulder style with the different logo
The authentic is based off the 97-98 season:
•red outline surrounding Sixers logo
•narrow space between the neck and arm holes
While the Swingman represents AI's 00-01 MVP season:
•no red outline surrounding the Sixers logo •wider spacing between the neck and arm holes
An authentic version of the 2001 jersey would also use dazzle material rather than mesh.
This is like saying an AMG and an c class are the same thing basically. Authentic all the way
Stop being a salesman! One is all stitched tackle twill and the other is screen print on tackle twill that will fade after 10 washes. There you go, consumers.
The swingman is alot better in my option
It's like a Chrysler 300 and a phantom. They both have 4 tires. They look about the same. Can't even tell the difference tbh. *sarcasm*
scramblingscholartv phantom is 500k a chrysler 300 not even a 10th the price you expect there to be major quality difference. This is a comparison of a $130 jersey and a $300 jersey, analogy is very flawed my friend. Mitchell produced an affordable jersey that outsells any “authentic” by alot, and people are arguing with that fact?
@@CapSwagUsa well show a detailed comparison for the consumer to make an educated decision on which one they would prefer. The stitching on one is multilayer, thicker mesh and cut a bit different. You spent more time replying about the phantom than you did the differences on the jerseys. It makes you look like you don't know the products.
Narrow shoulders on the authentic version
The biggest difference you missed was the silhouette of the jersey around the shoulder... The authentic jersey has a slimmer fit... ijs. If you’re gonna do it, you gotta do it right! Lol. Ball out on the authentic jersey...
Calm down chocolate
I Just Copped The Swingman One On A SUPER STEAL! I Usually Only Buy Authentics But For The Price I Paid I Had To Buy...Hopefully They Look Nice When They Get Here
Yo I might buy a swingman. Does the jersey look good and everything, stitching and stuff alright?
