Kobe Bryant Jersey T Shirt Appraisal

Kobe Bryant Los Angeles Lakers Adidas T-shirt

This is a pre-owned black short-sleeved t-shirt featuring graphics related to the Los Angeles Lakers and basketball legend Kobe Bryant, specifically his jersey number 24. The t-shirt is made of a dark, possibly charcoal or faded black, fabric, likely cotton or a cotton blend, given its visible texture and drape. The main graphic on the front displays "24" and "LAKERS" in prominent purple text with a gold/yellow outline, characteristic of the team's colors. The numbers and letters appear to be screen-printed or heat-pressed onto the fabric, with a slight textured quality visible upon closer inspection, suggesting a mesh-like pattern within the purple infill. Manufacturing details include a small, gold-colored Adidas logo, consisting of three parallel bars, located on the upper right chest area. Below the main 'LAKERS' text, on the lower right side of the shirt, there is a small rectangular patch or embroidered logo with an NBA emblem, indicating official licensing. The t-shirt has a standard crew neck and short sleeves. In terms of condition, the shirt exhibits signs of wear consistent with its used status. The black fabric appears somewhat faded, suggesting multiple washes. There are no visible rips, tears, or major stains, but the overall appearance indicates a vintage or well-worn item. The seams appear intact, but the fabric has a softened, lived-in feel. The item is currently displayed on a bright yellow plastic hanger, which is not part of the item itself. The style period is likely from the era when Kobe Bryant wore number 24 for the Lakers and Adidas was the official apparel sponsor for the NBA, roughly mid-2000s to mid-2010s. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for licensed sports apparel.
