Circa 1987 Dennis Rodman Rookie Era Detroit Pistons Worn Warm-Up Uniform

Dennis Rodman’s Iconic Detroit Pistons Warm-Up Uniform

A Legendary Career

Dennis Rodman, a name synonymous with defensive prowess and rebounding excellence, is celebrated for his remarkable achievements in the NBA. Earning NBA All-Defensive First Team honors seven times and being voted NBA Defensive Player of the Year twice, Rodman also led the league in rebounds per game for an unprecedented seven consecutive years. His illustrious career includes five NBA championships, and his #10 jersey was retired by the Detroit Pistons. In 2011, Rodman was inducted into the Hall of Fame, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest defensive players in basketball history.

A Rare and Exquisite Find

We are thrilled to present an extraordinary piece of basketball memorabilia—a warm-up uniform worn by Dennis Rodman during his time with the Detroit Pistons. This item stands out as the finest Rodman-worn piece we have had the privilege to handle, second only to his iconic leather pants.

Details of the Warm-Up Uniform

The uniform is a testament to Rodman’s time with the Pistons, featuring intricate details that highlight its authenticity and significance:

• Manufacturer’s Tags: Inside the front snaps is the “Sand-Knit” manufacturer’s tag with size “42”. Adjacent is another “Sand-Knit” tag with “Designed & Tailored Exclusively for the Detroit Pistons” and a white strip tag “2”LB”.
• Personalization: The left breast bears “DENNIS” in red heat-transferred vinyl block letters, while the back showcases “RODMAN” in large blue tackle twill.
• Player Number: The number “10” appears on the left sleeve in blue on red tackle twill.
• Team and NBA Logos: The front features the team embroidered logo, and the right breast has the official NBA embroidered logo.
• Matching Pants: The inner waistband of the matching pants includes the same two “Sand-Knit” tags with size “34”, along with four strip tags: “87”, “36” IN”, “1” HR”, and a blank tag.

This warm-up uniform is properly tagged, was presented to us as worn, and in our opinion, shows wear. It is a remarkable piece of sports memorabilia that captures the essence of Rodman’s dynamic career.
