A highly collectible late-80s/early-90s Philadelphia 76ers cable-knit sweater produced by Nutmeg Mills, one of the most respected American sportswear manufacturers of the era.
This piece features a heavyweight cream cable-knit body accented with bold red striping and a classic “Sixers” front graphic, blending traditional heritage knitwear with iconic NBA branding. Unlike Nutmeg’s more common fleece and jersey offerings, knit sweaters were produced in far smaller quantities, making this a notably rare example. Especially in this colorway and condition.
Made in the USA with substantial yarn weight and a relaxed vintage fit, this sweater captures peak 90s sportswear at its most refined: equal parts courtside, collegiate, and city heritage.
