Clothing company Mitchell & Ness has made its name on classic and retro gear. Using sales data from 2014, they've figure out which is the best-selling throwback jersey in every single state plus D.C. There are some obvious ones, but some definite surprises too.


I usually think these maps are lame but this one is different and isn't generated by facebooks likes.

Seems like the Kobe jerseys have an unfair advantage

Damn, no MJ, anywhere.

If you want to sell merchandise of course he is. If you want to field a competitive team he isn't.

Nice - I think I still have my old Larry Johnson jersey somewhere. As a kid I used to love going and watching he, Mourning, and Bouges.

Whats up with I assume Vince Carter in Connecticut and New Hampshire? Guess since they are somewhat close to Toronto.

The fact that Wisconsin has Kobe and not Bart Starr or something is surprising, and disappointing

South Carolina with an Ozzie Smith jersey...

GTFO with that shite. Probably Chipper or Larry Johnson like NC.

I would have never guessed that Kentucky would go with Dave Concepcion & Maine with San Diego's Winfield.

Who is Wyoming? Gehrig?

these are ALL TIME. I am SO SLOW. Just noticed these are THROW BACK jerseys.

You see Steve Carlton in the midwest. He played for St Louis for before the trade. Foggy brain cannot remember the pitcher the Cardinals got for Carlton from the Phils. He had pitched well the year before the deal.
Hindsight in this case is 20/12

New Jersey = Namath and he played on Long Island.
There is some state west of the Mississippi that is Namath too.

Montana owns CA but Kobe owns Oregon and Nevada. I guess Nevada does not have its own native star. Oregon? no track duds for the great Prefontaine?

I would have thought a Dale Murphy jersey would be number one in Georgia.
