throw back

Referrence to vintage jerseys, usually of basketball persuasion. A jersey with a past design, no longer being worn by the team. Another important factor is to make sure the athlete who's name adorns your throw back, was playing for the team at the time the throw back jersey was actually worn on the court.

Little Mickey was shot twice by ghetto thugs for his throw back.
