Before you choose a size

This is a supporter replica, not a player-issue shirt. The cut is relaxed rather than athletic, so it layers over a tee and does not cling. If you want the skin-tight on-pitch fit, this is not it — and most supporters prefer it that way.

Sweat moves through the knit instead of sitting on it, which is the difference between comfortable and clammy after an hour in the sun.

Custom printing & personalisation

Choose official-style lettering for Nikola Jokic, or go fully custom. Either way the print is applied as flexible film that resists cracking and peeling.

Design accents: Swingman relaxed fit, Black base colourway

How it fits and feels

Weight distribution is even, so the jersey hangs straight instead of pulling toward the hem.

Weight sits around 145gsm: heavy enough to hang properly, light enough that you forget you are wearing it by the second half.

Numbering uses a stretch film rated to the same elasticity as the base knit, so it flexes instead of splitting.

Where you will wear it

Lighting is unforgiving on colour, so the NBA Rising Stars Challenge shade is matched deliberately rather than approximated.

Care and washing

Machine wash cold at 30°C, inside out, with similar colours. Skip the tumble dryer and the print will outlast the fabric.

Common questions
Is this suitable for wearing to a match rather than playing in?

Yes — that is precisely what it is designed for. a roomier heritage cut true to the original era means comfortable multi-hour wear in a stadium seat without fabric pulling when you move.

Can I put a star player's name on a blank jersey?

Yes. We letter to the standard collegiate or league spec using flexible film that stays soft after washing — no rigid plastisol that splits at the first cold cycle.

Can I machine wash it with other clothes?

Fine with light garments. Avoid heavy denim and anything with zips or Velcro that can scuff the print.
