Fanatics has partnered with Springy to bring its proven power in the sports merch space to the world of rare, vintage, and truly one-of-a-kind pieces.

Dubbed Fanatics Real Vintage, the endeavor officially launches to the public on Wednesday, Sept. 18. Below, we break down everything you need to know.

Fanatics Real Vintage features thousands of rare pieces spanning NBA, NFL, and more

For the initial collection, fans have a chance at bagging a special piece of their own from a selection of thousands of hand-selected and rigorously authenticated rarities. This means fans will be able to shop vintage t-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies featuring key players from across the NBA, NFL, and other leagues. Prices for the first collection start at $35 and top out at $250, with Michael Jordan and Tom Brady t-shirts among the inaugural offerings.

Brands featured in thes Fanatics Real Vintage lineup include Lee Sports, Russell Athletic, Nike, and more. Given that these are indeed authenticated vintage pieces, a restock of a piece that may catch your eye is decidedly unlikely, so act fast and keep checking back for new pieces to be added.

Fanatics Real Vintage is curating the rotating collections with Springy

Springy, a Los Angeles-based vintage apparel brand, has come aboard Fanatics Real Vintage to help source and authenticate every piece in the collection. To be clear, featured pieces are not reproductions, meaning buyers can take confidence in knowing their pieces have been thoroughly checked for veracity.
