Who says sports fan gear is only for game days and tailgates? We certainly don’t. There are so many subtle and stylish pieces of merch out there that are wearable for any occasion, and we’ve put together a list of our absolute favourites. Be warned: a lot of these items are limited edition, so grab them while you still can.
DKNY x NBA shirts
Show love for your fave NBA team in a casual, yet chic way. Sure, you could tie your own shirt up at the side, but let’s face it, our giant knots have always looked kinda amateurish. With crisp lettering on a classic white, this shirt would look at home paired with jeans or leggings (throw on a neutral blazer for added sophistication).
WHO IS IT FOR:
NBA fans who want a simple, bold, well-fitted shirt, without any fussiness.
