IMG_2855.jpegIMG_2856.jpegStarter Official New York basketball runs through St. John's. Starter proudly pays homage to the Beasts of the Big East, celebrating the era that shaped college hoops. This collection honors all 11 Big East schools with bold, retro-inspired designs-repping the legacy, the rivalries, and the legends who made history.

Note 1
These appear to be the same jackets they use to sell at the Campus Book Store and CA home games. I did not see any on sale this year (maybe still do sell them but they are not listed on the website).

Note 2
The photos were sent to me with the heads partially (Kadary in the red jacket and RJ in the blue one), so please no comments on that regard.

Wow! These Starter Jackets bring back memories of our past glories , during the Mul Berry and Jackson era .

I had one in Red back in the day .

The Macy Event doesn’t mention prices or , if available by Mail.

I’m sure many of the fans going to the game on Thursday will hang around until 4 pm to go to Macy’s.

No doubt stimulating the Economy at Tir na Nog or , other water holes close to the Garden .


I’ve seen some of our fans wearing them at the Garden this year but , didn’t know they were now available again .

Starter use to make these similar jackets for all the NY Sports teams,.

Giants , Jets , Mets , Yankees , etc

The Retro look is great but , limited edition probably means pricey. ?

They are cool and look great on KR and RJ.

Thanks for info. Maybe they expand the availability after the BET ?
 
this has been the worst "drop" I've been apart of... The Original Insta post said Monday the 10th... me and 10 other psychos were there... only to read the "updated" post stating the 11th. Couple of the guys had screen shots of the original.... anyway- Mr Carl Banks even chimed in with an Update saying that it will be happening today... well guess what.... No jackets at Lids or Macys today....

i wish i had other interests...

Interesting my oldest sent me the info and I will be in the City today for another event in the vicinity (potentially more details about that later). I was planning to check out the merchandise afterwards.
 
Word from a Macy’s Associate, the jackets are in but they are having technical difficulty in placing them in inventory and inputting the pricing in their computer system. They hope to have the problem rectified and put them out tomorrow.

As for Lids on 42nd Street, they only have what they call the Collection which is Starter Merchandise (t-shirts and sweat shirts) for all BE Teams. The selection was “meh” IMHO and there was not much left of the St. John’s stuff. They will not be getting any of the jackets according to the General Manager of the store.

Great info, that sucks for Starter.
 
Carl and Starter with the mom and pop shop award of the year. What a joke. They should be embarrassed. They've been hyping this release for months. Carl even told people to "pull up." LOL, people did pull up, and left with nothing.

I want those sneakers
 
A bunch of crew neck sweatshirts sent to the Lids on 42nd Street were pulled off the racks and put away not to be sold. One of the sales associates took a close look at the graphics of the sweatshirt and noticed that it said “St. John”.

I had the pleasure of running into Carl Banks today around 6pm near Macy's on my walk to Penn. Despite what was supposedly a bit of a tough day for him, he was all class and took a pic with me.
