Tapping into the nostalgia of the professional basketball team, which played in the NBA from 1995 to 2001, the outerwear design features the recognizable Grizzlies hues and logo font, along with an oversized motif on the back. There’s even another small vintage logo of the bear paw gripping a basketball at the interior neck inside the luxe jacket design.

Priced at $1,825, it’s a piece for the true fan or collector. But the Grizzlies nods run throughout the collection, appearing on a T-shirt, hat and keychain.

Many of the designs also feature an embroidered patch bearing the city’s very own flag.
