I wish it was true. I called Cy's Locker Room and they told me no replicas of the JT Throwbacks are to be sold - said the only selling of throwback jersey was through the Auctions website for the Game Worn ones.
THIS REALLY SUCKS!!! Even in 2007 they made limited replicas of the throwbacks to the 1977 season jerseys we wore. I don't want to have to shell out $250+ (starting bid on ALL are $250
), babysit an auction, and worry about not getting the # or size I want (typically for a L or XL need to get an unpopular fan number.)
I may just get the new better looking #52 but undecided on that since I already have the #4 and #20 (yes they are in that order in my closet too, lame weed reference joke I know, I know.) Just sad on the throwback replica chance they had to make money - I know a lot of people besides myself and I'm sure a lot on this website would've bought them. The Throwback T-shirts don't do much and pretty much require explaining to anyone who isn't a diehard Cyclone fan what the T-shirt even is. Also $30-$35 is a ridiculous price for a shirt with 5 stripes on it.
Sidenote: Why do the colors of the new regular home replica jersey look SO DIFFERENT on the two websites? Cardinal looks much darker on Cy's Locker Room, very light on ISU book store.
