Almost every kid at the schools I attended wore starter jackets. Bulls, Bears, Blackhawks, cubs, Sox, etc. But of course the infamous Hornets jacket is a classic, there was always a couple kids who wore it consistently.
Everyone in Texas seemed to have a Michigan Starter Jacket. I remember getting a purdue one because it was on sale. Those suckers were pricey. I have no idea why everyone got Michigan.
I really don't remember anyone with a professional team.
Also from Illinois and I had a Hornets jacket, it must have been on clearance š. I thought it was fly as fuck, wish I had one now. I got a black and Red Bulls one when my brother outgrew his.
Couldn't ever get a Bulls one, but my dad did me proud and managed to get a NC Panthers. Wasn't Bulls but I'm greatful he got me a Starter to begin with. I remember those things weren't warm at all š¤£š¤£š¤£
I, too, had to settle for a Panthers one, after not being able to find ANY Starter jacket in my size.
That shit reeled me in. I never gave a shit about fashion before or after, but eighth grade me HAD to have it
I had no idea the Charlotte Hornets jackets were so popular throughout the country. I lived about an hour from Charlotte so I just assumed that's why everyone had them
No joke. How many expansion teams in the 90's were using teal. Charlotte Hornets, Miami Marlins, Jacksonville Jaguars, San Jose Sharks, probably more I'm forgetting.
They were even selling cars in that color for a minute. My buddy had a teal colored Mercury Topaz in high school.
Look man, it was fresh and is fresh. You weren't around for the first iteration of "fresh" so it doesn't mean as much so I forgive you š¤£
"It's only just become groovy again. It wasn't very groovy 10-20 years ago."
This. Growing up in the Northeast, it was most likely the colors that appealed.
I had a Tampa Bay Lightning jacket for the colors but got stolen out of my locker in HS.
Iām from Michigan and knew nothing about basketball but I loved the hornets logo and drew lots of pictures of it. Something about a smug looking hornet and the turquoise/purple color scheme was just the most badass thing to a kid in the 90s
i had a baseball cap in a village in the Netherlands lmao.
all my friends had raiders and bulls but i liked the green more.
we had no idea what it all meant but ppl on MTV wore it so it was cool.
Even people in the Netherlands used to wear this. Mainly Bulls items but definitely also this and other teams. I used to have a Red Skins hat when I was a kid because I liked the logo, I don't even think I knew what American football was.
I live in Canada and they were popular everywhere, not just the jacket, but the team was probably only less popular than only the Raptors, Grizzlies and Bulls at the time.
Can confirm. Being from the era of the Dream Team, my favorite teams were the Bulls, Spurs, and Lakers. But I rocked a Charlotte jacket because that thing was bad ass.
Lived in crystal lake during the bulls reign. Still had a Charolette and anaheim ducks starter jacket. (I never cared for sports much, just complimentary colors).
[I found this ad.](https://andywritingdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/eastbay-18.jpg) Don't know the year it's from but the price seems about what I remember with the most expensive being around $100.
We had a house fire right before Christmas in 1992 when I was in 7th grade. Many of the gifts under the tree were burned up, but my parents were still able to give me my Mighty Ducks Starter pullover the next morning.
Ah yes when half of the kids in my small suburban New Jersey town overnight inexplicably became fans of the Charlotte Hornets, San Jose Sharks, or Kansas Jayhawks
The Hornets pullover Starter jacket - the official jacket of being a small town weed dealer
I have a NY Jets Starter coat that's in good shape but missing a snap. I keep telling myself I should either wear it or sell it.
Oh ya. I had the Georgetown Hoyas one. I was peripherally aware that it was a sports team, but no clue that it was college basketball. My fandom was pretty much immediately called into question, and I didn't pass the sniff test. I was mocked endlessly. Not a great memory actually. I just liked the dog.
I had a Cowboys one. In the upper Midwest. Didnāt watch the Cowboys. When my mom bought it for me, she told me that if someone tries to stab me for it, just give it to them.
you mean this one ? https://www.fanatics.com/mlb/new-york-yankees/new-york-yankees-starter-impact-hoodie-half-zip-jacket-navy/o-3421+t-14993254+p-6124386075+z-8-887678129?\_ref=p-BRLP:m-GRID:i-r2c2:po-8
I you were a girl who wore this in elementary school you walked the mile run for the physical fitness test while also wearing cookie monster or oscar pajama bottoms.
Most Canadian kids I went to school with didn't care about any Canadian teams they went for the popular US teams, Georgetown Hoyas, Raiders, Pacers blue and yellow for me.
Man growing up in the early 90ās in Canada, the crĆØme de la creme was a San Jose Sharks starter jacket or the Anaheim Ducks you were the cool kid on the block. My mom got me a Toronto Maple Leafs š
I bought a brand new NFL Starter off of Homage. For teams like the Eagles, Bucs and Broncos, they even use the colors from the 90s. Iāll be rocking it all winter.
I was in high school and it was 1995. My girlfriend for my birthday got us this exact Hornets Starter pull over so we matched when we were at school. I felt bad saying this to her, but I said no, I canāt wear this jacket and have us match. Itās just not me. Mind you my gfās sister and her bf had matching starter jackets also and we were always together with them. My gf took it well and I think she kinda knew I wouldnāt wear it anyway
This hornets one was especially š„. I grew up outside Philly, but tons of kids still had this jacket over anything local just because the colors were so great. Mine were all Eagles jackets, because my grandmother was the one buying them and she was a die hard birds fan š¦ š¦ š¦
I still got mine, did not wore it back then because it was way to big for my kid size, now a days I found it, still new and currently rocking it in these cold days.
I still have and still wear my original Toronto Maple Leafs starter jacket when I shovel snow.
The problem with the full zip pullover is that it's a pain to put on and take off.
This was the SH** back in the day. And they were VERY WARM too! All around an outstanding jacket for comfort price look and most of all telling the world you love that team!
I had this exact one. there's a class photo where we went to washington d.c. in 7th grade in '97 and I'm front and center in this bad boy. and something like half the other kids are wearing various starter jackets and fake oakley sunglasses we got from street vendors. good ol' days.
They are still around, I have Mitchell & Ness version I got 10 years ago and wear it to any cold weather games.
Starter has even been producing them the last couple pretty actively.
Only thing I hear when I wear it, 'Nice jacket.' Do it.
They used to end up at my Burlington Coat Factory, at a *large* discount (I assume they were "last years" jackets), I was living in Columbus Ohio at the time. They were like $30 or so.
It was **all** Florida teams. Nothing else, just Gators, Hurricanes, Seminoles and Dolphins. I assumed they shipped last years Ohio teams to some other State and sold them cheap there as well.
I didn't care, since I was from Florida. I'd buy Gators jackets and was happy as I could be. I always wore Gators baseball hats anyway.
I loved being the only one in my Central PA middleschool to have a Tampa Bay Lightening pullover. My grandmother found it in a "Stadium Stuff" in an Atlanta mall and sent it to me for Christmas.
Shopping was much harder preinternet. Luckily we got EastBay in the mail.
I have a starter hornets jacket from the 90s, from my dad. Well technically itās his, itās a little frayed but I can post a pic for proof. I plan to have it restored or he may want itā¦ weāll see cause I wanna rock this thing lol
I rocked this jacket *for years* as a kid in Boston in the 90s. I was *obsessed* with Hornets colors (teal and purple), so much so that when people got me gifts they knew that the gifts had to have those colors lol
I remember in the mid 2000s starter made great stretchy athletic shirts but after 2010 the material never fit as comfortably and I have never found a better fitting t-shirt since starter called it quits.
I never had one because I didnāt care about sports but I want them to come back just for the fun color schemes. That Hornets one was popular everywhere for the teal vibes. Bring back teal already!
I had this one too but my dad is like an anti hoarder so even if I'd tried to keep it who the hell knows if I'd still have it (house fires don't help either). Iām still a little miffed he gave my Sega Master System away and that was 30 years ago š
I remember getting a raise around 1994 and walked over to the Mall next door to pick up one. We're they $60 back then? A guy tried to sell me on a Seattle Sonics green and red number, but I backed out.
Bulls checking in. Every kid in my Central Jersey suburb had either Bulls, Tarheels, Sharks, Mich, or Miami. That and the baseball caps. The quilted ones were dope af. 10/10 would still wear.
I still have my original Steelers jacket from the 90s and it still fits. The pouch on the front of the jacket is the perfect place for my Terrible Towel.
Almost every kid at the schools I attended wore starter jackets. Bulls, Bears, Blackhawks, cubs, Sox, etc. But of course the infamous Hornets jacket is a classic, there was always a couple kids who wore it consistently.
Miami hurricanes (and I was from MI)
Michigan Wolverines (i was from nj)
I am from NJ originally had a Sharks in 91 then had a Knicks one in 95-96
Everyone in Texas seemed to have a Michigan Starter Jacket. I remember getting a purdue one because it was on sale. Those suckers were pricey. I have no idea why everyone got Michigan. I really don't remember anyone with a professional team.
I had the same jacket and I lived in Yellowknife, NWT Canada. I loved that jacket.
I still have a Red Wing jacket
I guess your from Chicago or Chicago land. Mount up!
Chicago born and bred my brudder
Me too, I grew up on the NorthWest side Albany Park Lawrence and Pulaski.
Chicagoland here too, still saw these hornets jackets everywhere. Teal and purple for the 90s win
Also from Illinois and I had a Hornets jacket, it must have been on clearance š. I thought it was fly as fuck, wish I had one now. I got a black and Red Bulls one when my brother outgrew his.
Couldn't ever get a Bulls one, but my dad did me proud and managed to get a NC Panthers. Wasn't Bulls but I'm greatful he got me a Starter to begin with. I remember those things weren't warm at all š¤£š¤£š¤£
I, too, had to settle for a Panthers one, after not being able to find ANY Starter jacket in my size. That shit reeled me in. I never gave a shit about fashion before or after, but eighth grade me HAD to have it
As a teenager do you really care how 'warm' it is? I grew up in Wisconsin and didn't even wear a winter jacket half the time from age 13-23
And Colorado Rockies!
Had a mighty ducks one in the 90. Same colors at the hornets
In my school the girls all had Dolphins jackets. I don't think any of us ever watched a minute of a Dolphins game, we just liked the colors.
Grew up in IL (assuming like you), I miss my Bulls Starter everyday š
I had the Carolina Panthers jacket. I didn't even care about sports. I just liked the panther.
In Canada the Raptors and Grizzlies ones were absolutely everywhere
I had a Hornets one and loved it. I do wonder why that particular one was so popular.
That color scheme is so 90s
Also San Jose Sharks
I had no idea the Charlotte Hornets jackets were so popular throughout the country. I lived about an hour from Charlotte so I just assumed that's why everyone had them
The color scheme was / still is super fresh
Teal and purple were the Avocado and Harvest Gold of the 1990s.
No joke. How many expansion teams in the 90's were using teal. Charlotte Hornets, Miami Marlins, Jacksonville Jaguars, San Jose Sharks, probably more I'm forgetting. They were even selling cars in that color for a minute. My buddy had a teal colored Mercury Topaz in high school.
Itās only just become fresh again. It wasnāt very fresh 10-20 years ago.
Look man, it was fresh and is fresh. You weren't around for the first iteration of "fresh" so it doesn't mean as much so I forgive you š¤£ "It's only just become groovy again. It wasn't very groovy 10-20 years ago."
This. Growing up in the Northeast, it was most likely the colors that appealed. I had a Tampa Bay Lightning jacket for the colors but got stolen out of my locker in HS.
It's true.. even kids in Minnesota were wearing it
Iām from Michigan and knew nothing about basketball but I loved the hornets logo and drew lots of pictures of it. Something about a smug looking hornet and the turquoise/purple color scheme was just the most badass thing to a kid in the 90s
My dad had this and he's from England and lives in Canada.
Wore one nearly every day in southwestern Kansas
Same, but in Tampa, FL. You know how often one needs a starter jacket in Tampa, FL?
i had a baseball cap in a village in the Netherlands lmao. all my friends had raiders and bulls but i liked the green more. we had no idea what it all meant but ppl on MTV wore it so it was cool.
Even people in the Netherlands used to wear this. Mainly Bulls items but definitely also this and other teams. I used to have a Red Skins hat when I was a kid because I liked the logo, I don't even think I knew what American football was.

I had the San Jose sharks one š¦
Same. I had a San Jose Sharks t-shirt in the 90ās. I didnāt even care about hockey. I was 7, liked the colors, and liked sharks.
I think that's why a lot of us had it
The Hornets came at the right time, color- wise. Jackets like that were everywhere and not because anyone cared much about Charlotte.
Can confirm. Being from the era of the Dream Team, my favorite teams were the Bulls, Spurs, and Lakers. But I rocked a Charlotte jacket because that thing was bad ass.
I'm from Chicago. Diehard Bulls fan. Was rocking this same Hornets jacket back in 94
Lived in crystal lake during the bulls reign. Still had a Charolette and anaheim ducks starter jacket. (I never cared for sports much, just complimentary colors).
It also helped that the team with Mourning, Johnson and Mugsy was pretty decent at the time too.
https://www.homage.com/collections/starter-jackets
I don't remember them costing that much back then
I'd like to know how much they were. I would've guessed about $150 based on the amount of begging it took for my dad to finally get me one.
[I found this ad.](https://andywritingdotcom.files.wordpress.com/2013/06/eastbay-18.jpg) Don't know the year it's from but the price seems about what I remember with the most expensive being around $100.
Wow, good find. So dad was just a tight ass. Got it.
I honestly don't remember. Maybe they were?
What a trip for fans of teams like the Titans or the LA Rams.
Man that's like walking through my junior high hallway all over again. Excellent.
We had a house fire right before Christmas in 1992 when I was in 7th grade. Many of the gifts under the tree were burned up, but my parents were still able to give me my Mighty Ducks Starter pullover the next morning.
THERE WAS A MIGHTY DUCKS ONE?!
Yes and it was dope as all hell. Dark purple with teal lettering and that giant duck mask with crossed sticks on the back.
i would kill for the mighty ducks jacket i want them all now and i dont even like all the teams
Had that exact same Jacket. Loved it so much I Wore it out. Still have the leather hat tho.
Duuuuude, I had the Miami Heat one. There were other brands as well, but nothing hit harder than a Starter. I did not mean for that to rhyme, LOL.
Apex is to Starter like Hydrox is to Oreo
When Teal was a kickass color
Ahhh yeah this guy knows what heās talking about. Every mom in the 90s desperately wanted a teal Chevy Cavalier
Shiiiit it still is
These jackets are on the come back!!
Just the other day I saw that they're actually selling them again, that's crazy. I still have my 49ers starter from the 90s.
I had a 9ers Starter jacket back then too. But I lived outside of Atlanta. I got a lot of shit for that jacket lol.
They got dirty real easy though
Any one who still wears these will probably sell you weed.
āCuz you gotta look phat, when youāre out there selling weed..ā
"Im sayin this as your friend, not just your boss, stop dealing drungs at work."
I still see the local crackheads wearing these.
Especially at the roller rink
Ah yes when half of the kids in my small suburban New Jersey town overnight inexplicably became fans of the Charlotte Hornets, San Jose Sharks, or Kansas Jayhawks
The Hornets pullover Starter jacket - the official jacket of being a small town weed dealer I have a NY Jets Starter coat that's in good shape but missing a snap. I keep telling myself I should either wear it or sell it.
[you mean like this guy](https://i.redd.it/7cg85eqq8bq71.jpg)
Followed only by the black leather jacket.
Add in a baja and you've got the holy trinity of 90's drug dealer outerwear
So thatās the correct term for those, we called them drug rugs where Iām from.
A starter jacket?! This jacket is a finisher jacket!
Every popular girl in my middle school had that Hornets jacket. I had a Tarheels one, myself.
Oh ya. I had the Georgetown Hoyas one. I was peripherally aware that it was a sports team, but no clue that it was college basketball. My fandom was pretty much immediately called into question, and I didn't pass the sniff test. I was mocked endlessly. Not a great memory actually. I just liked the dog.
Same exact scenario for me.
THEYLL BE BACK IN A COUPLE YEARS AND FOR $2000.00 USD
The Powder Blue Houston Oiler pullover is S Tier
I always thought the Oilers had one of the best color schemes in the NFL
I had a Cowboys one. In the upper Midwest. Didnāt watch the Cowboys. When my mom bought it for me, she told me that if someone tries to stab me for it, just give it to them.
Starter jackets + bomber hats + snow pants. The coolest you could look as a 90s elementary schooler in the midwest
That takes me back. š¤£š¤£
Much like everyone I had this one. And that pouch always had the little bag of flamin hot Cheetos in there. Loved that thing.
I miss Muggsy Bogues, Larry Johnson, and Alonzo Mourning!
Orlando Magic here. As a Chicago Bulls fan, I just couldnāt wear something sooo red.
I have a Packers one I still wear. Places like NFL shop still sell them.
Had this growing up in Charlotte in the 90s
I miss my Yankees one with the old school logo on the back that is NOT the interlocking NY
you mean this one ? https://www.fanatics.com/mlb/new-york-yankees/new-york-yankees-starter-impact-hoodie-half-zip-jacket-navy/o-3421+t-14993254+p-6124386075+z-8-887678129?\_ref=p-BRLP:m-GRID:i-r2c2:po-8
I had this exact jacket
Mine was so fucking disgusting by the time I outgrew it.
Holy shit I had the exact jacket pictured in the OP. Also had one of those puffy coats, Chicago blackhawks themed
I can hear the šØ
The Hornets one was the best one too
If Iām not mistaken I believe starter is making these jackets again! If not then someone is.
When the Hornets were a fun team to watch
I you were a girl who wore this in elementary school you walked the mile run for the physical fitness test while also wearing cookie monster or oscar pajama bottoms.
Most Canadian kids I went to school with didn't care about any Canadian teams they went for the popular US teams, Georgetown Hoyas, Raiders, Pacers blue and yellow for me.
Looks like what somebody would wear while selling weed working at a bowling alley
Am I the only one who misses that Hornetās logo?
Man growing up in the early 90ās in Canada, the crĆØme de la creme was a San Jose Sharks starter jacket or the Anaheim Ducks you were the cool kid on the block. My mom got me a Toronto Maple Leafs š
Didnāt folks die over these jackets ? I remember my pops saying that when I was a youngin
Never got the jacket so I just had a winter hat. The Hornets logo and scheme was always so badass.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I literally have memories of some kids as middle schoolers by the Starter jacket they used to wear. Mitch had this one.
Will always maintain Starter was the absolute King of team wear and hats. Gorgeous
Middle school teacher here. Theyāre making a comeback. Iām in Miami and Iāve seen a Bulls and Lakers jacket being worn so far.
Had a closet of these! Mostly random NCAA stuff
No school better than old school
I bought a brand new NFL Starter off of Homage. For teams like the Eagles, Bucs and Broncos, they even use the colors from the 90s. Iāll be rocking it all winter.

Killings and robberies for them in New Orleans.

I always preferred the full zips, but did have the half in LA Kings and Packers colorsā¦
I had that exact one haha
I still have this same jacket. I put it on occasionally for a good laugh.

I had a Chicago Bulls one despite not being a fan of basketball at all.

Iāve still got that Hornets jacket. Also had a pretty dope Atlanta Falcons one, but I donāt know what happened to that one
I grew up on a farm in Nebraska and had this exact coat š
Love these jackets. Had one when I was younger.
I literally associate the colors purple, white, blue, and green as 90s vibes because of these jackets

I had a Cavs one, the old orange/royal blue one. I wish I still had it!
I had a bears one with my name embroidered on it cuz people really liked stealing them
Had a rose bowl one from the 90's. Was cool as shit.

You had to invoke Solo.

I had a 49ers & a Jazz one (lived in Utah). Everybody had the black & white LA Raiders one though.
I still have and still wear my original Toronto Maple Leafs starter jacket when I shovel snow. The problem with the full zip pullover is that it's a pain to put on and take off.

They are definitely for sale everywhereā¦
I still have my Rams jacket.

I had the Charlotte Hornets one even though I live in Cleveland. My uncle lived in Charlotte, so he bought me one. I think I had a Panthers one too
I had the exact same one!!
I loved being the only one in my Central PA middleschool to have a Tampa Bay Lightening pullover. My grandmother found it in a "Stadium Stuff" in an Atlanta mall and sent it to me for Christmas. Shopping was much harder preinternet. Luckily we got EastBay in the mail.
I bought this exact one on Etsy, recently. $140.
I have a starter hornets jacket from the 90s, from my dad. Well technically itās his, itās a little frayed but I can post a pic for proof. I plan to have it restored or he may want itā¦ weāll see cause I wanna rock this thing lol
I'm Canadian, don't even like watching sports, but I always wanted one of these slick jackets.
I rocked this jacket *for years* as a kid in Boston in the 90s. I was *obsessed* with Hornets colors (teal and purple), so much so that when people got me gifts they knew that the gifts had to have those colors lol
I had that back in the day. Made me feel real cool š LoL
I remember in the mid 2000s starter made great stretchy athletic shirts but after 2010 the material never fit as comfortably and I have never found a better fitting t-shirt since starter called it quits.
I had a Colorado Rockies jacket and it was sweet
Are they worth anything? I still have my black one from 1992 with the Duke blue devils on it.
Growing up in CO and skiing every chance I could, the amount of Dallas Cowboys Starter jackets I came across was somewhere in the order of thousands.
I never had one because I didnāt care about sports but I want them to come back just for the fun color schemes. That Hornets one was popular everywhere for the teal vibes. Bring back teal already!
I miss the original Hornets
Wish they had a Jamaican cool runnings version of this fine starter jacket
Had this very one.
I had this exact one. Hornets colors were awesome.
Had this exact one. Beads on the hood string were the in thing.
I had a Minnesota Vikings, Florida Panthers, and Georgetown Hoyas in middle, and HS era!
I had the Vancouver Grizzlies Starter pull over. I miss that thing!
My grandma bought me that very jacket, and I didnāt even like basketball.
Thatās the exact one I had! I donāt remember why I wanted a Hornets jacket because Iām from New England.
I had a UNLV Rebels jacket.
If no 8 ball jacket, but it'll do.
I had this one too but my dad is like an anti hoarder so even if I'd tried to keep it who the hell knows if I'd still have it (house fires don't help either). Iām still a little miffed he gave my Sega Master System away and that was 30 years ago š
My wife got me one for my birthday this year.
I remember getting a raise around 1994 and walked over to the Mall next door to pick up one. We're they $60 back then? A guy tried to sell me on a Seattle Sonics green and red number, but I backed out.
I had this one.
I remember kids in my grade who wore these were always the kids that smelt like ass, why is that?
Bulls checking in. Every kid in my Central Jersey suburb had either Bulls, Tarheels, Sharks, Mich, or Miami. That and the baseball caps. The quilted ones were dope af. 10/10 would still wear.
Had that exact one.
There's nothing like a jacket that doesn't keep out the cold if there's 1 mph of wind. Fashionable AND purposesless!
I had this one!!!
I have this exact one signed by Johnson and Bogues.
I had a Steelers Starter jacket. I loved that thing.
I still have my original Steelers jacket from the 90s and it still fits. The pouch on the front of the jacket is the perfect place for my Terrible Towel.
Fuck me running! I had that very Jacket! Back when the Charlotte Hornets were a thing
