Yesterday, friend of the newsletter 19nine went live with their latest drop, updated recreations of vintage “Basketball is Life” t-shirts featuring 16 teams including YOU ALREADY KNOW. They’ve also put together some marketing spreads that recall those classic Eastbay layouts, which I love. Here’s one!

19nine is hosting a competition for which school sells the most shirts—complete with a mandatory BRACKET— and they’ll be tracking the results their Twitter account. If you end up buying a shirt, email me your purchase confirmation and you’ll be entered to win a free pair of 19nine’s incredibly detailed and quality KU retro shorts, a $70 value. I’m coming for that red 1986 pair soon enough even though part of me is like… wow, too soon?

If you end up buying a shirt, be sure to use the free shipping code 19nine is offering, the most beautiful promo code I have ever laid eyes on: BASKETBALL.

Rock Chalk y’all… be sure to open your dresser drawers this week to find out that I’ve left each subscriber a note that says BE GREAT
