Maybe when the new league year begins in March. That's my best guess. I would think that's when the yearly contracts begin and end.

I hope you're not referring to the prototype uniforms, cuz those are not real

The Reebok All Pro hats were money though.

I believe they said jerseys would go on sale in April. So I'd assume they'd start selling other stuff too then

Can't wait. Reebok is garbage.

Does anyone know if the cost of the jerseys are going to go down any?
With all of the counterfit jerseys out there nowadays that cost in the $25-$45 dollar range, I am not seeing how they can still try to sell the screen print jerseys for $65 plus.

Maybe so, but at least it isn't made from slave labor. How Nike continues to sell shitty shoes, shirts and hats made by 8 year old slaves at 700% profit is incomprehensible. They sure have one hell of a PR department.

You know despite claims to the contrary by reebok they are still accused of using sweatshops even in producing NFL jerseys.

According to Consumers Digest, Avia, Asics, New Balance, Ryka, and many others surpass Nike in durability. For what Nike charges for their shoes, especially considering they are made (labor and parts included) for about $3.10 a pair, they aren't much of a bargain for the consumer in quality or price.
Don't confuse cost with quality. Just because they plaster their logo on everything from golf bags to shoes to water bottles to Michael Jordan's nutsack doesn't mean they are the best. They make a decent pair of shoes, I suppose, but they do it on the backs of 8 year olds who work 12 hour days in filthy, unsafe sweatshops.

As does Adidas/Reebok

Granted, that's a valid point. A lot of work needs to be done. This issue plagues not only the shoe business but the entire fashion industry as a whole. However, Nike is, by most accounts, the worst offender over and over. Secondly, Nike is so far better off financially that they don't have to conduct business this way. I read that if Nike reduced its advertising budget by less than 1%, they could double their average monthly wage of $32 a month to all their overseas employees. But no, despite making $10B a quarter in profit, the workers don't need more than dollar a fricking day. Nice.

Does Nike lower their shoe prices because of boot leg kicks or Luis Vuitton lower theirs because of fake purses??
As long as there are cheap asses, There will always be a market for cheap knock offs.

By far Asics has the best quality. Any links to new Nike gear?

The Reebok jerseys that the NFL teams have been using certainly are. Let's hope the new Nike jerseys look and fit better than the Reeboks. Those things looked like they were right off the shelves of Wal and K Marts.
