Men's Los Angeles Lakers Kobe Bryant #8 Purple 2021/22 Swingman NBA Jersey - City Edition

Team details

Los Angeles Lakers colours are the whole point here, and the purple base keeps them sharp whether you are at the ground or on the sofa.

Sized as Men's, so the proportions follow that fit rather than a generic one - check the chart and take your usual size.

The people wearing it

Basketball shirts are judged on how they look off the court as much as on the team graphics, so the content that earns its place is history and comparison: what changed between eras, which colourways sit together, and which series collects best. The buyer is usually young, follows a specific player, and wears the shirt with everything else in the wardrobe.

Details that matter when choosing this Los Angeles Lakers jersey

Everything starts with the Los Angeles Lakers Swingman jersey - it sets the colourway, the fit and the look the rest of the range is built around.

The Los Angeles Lakers jersey is the base piece of the Lakers range: the same city edition colourway, number placement and lettering fans expect, cut in a shape you can wear all day.

Shoppers filtering by NBA basketball jersey will find this alongside every other NBA basketball top we stock, in the same sizes and the same fit.

Lakers streetwear jersey searches usually come down to two questions - does it fit, and is it the right shirt for the occasion. This Purple swingman answers both: men sizing, a lightweight knit, and a colourway that reads clearly without being loud.

For anyone searching the Kobe Bryant jersey, the back carries the Kobe Bryant name and number treatment fans recognise, printed straight through the fabric so it stays legible after washing.

Built for game day

Wear it to the stadium, to the sports bar, or to the living room - game day is the obvious home for this jersey.

Questions people ask about this Los Angeles Lakers jersey

What colour is the Los Angeles Lakers swingman?

The colourway is purple, with city edition accents carrying the contrast.

How should I care for the Los Angeles Lakers jersey?

Cold machine wash inside out, hang to dry, and skip the tumble dryer - heat is what cracks printed lettering.

Where does the Los Angeles Lakers jersey ship from and can I return it?

It ships from the warehouse listed on this page, and unworn items in the condition they arrived in can be returned within the stated return window.

Does this Los Angeles Lakers jersey work as everyday clothing?

Yes. Basketball shirts in this range are cut for men with a relaxed supporter fit and a lightweight knit, which is what makes them wearable off the court - most buyers wear this swingman with jeans or shorts far more often than they wear it to a game. Basketball shirts are worn as streetwear first, so how they sit with other clothing decides the purchase.

What exactly is the Los Angeles Lakers Swingman Jersey in Purple?

It is a fan-version basketball jersey inspired by the Los Angeles Lakers on-court look, offered in the purple city edition colourway. It is made for supporters to wear on game day, at training or as casual clothing, not as match-worn kit.

Is this a match-worn or player-issue jersey?

No. This is a swingman made for supporters: a relaxed cut and everyday comfort rather than the heavy technical build players wear. It follows the Los Angeles Lakers look in colour and layout, but it is not on-court kit.
