Jay-Z, Meek Mill, Lil Baby, Maverick Carter, Fanatics, the D’Amelio family and more have officially acquired iconic lifestyle brand Mitchell & Ness from former owner Juggernaut Capital Partners. The announcement came early Friday (Feb. 18).
“Fashion is cyclical, but classics are forever,” Jay-Z said in a statement. “Mitchell & Ness is a true classic. I was an early adopter of this brand, as well as a part of a departure from athletic wear. I’m proud to play a small role in bringing it back, and in some cases, introducing the authenticity and quality of the Mitchell & Ness brand to a new generation.”
Founded in 1904, Mitchell & Ness remains a go-to shopping hub for nostalgics ports jerseys, licensed lifestyle products, street fashion staples and stylish head gear. The company has secured major deals with the NBA, NFL, MLB, MLS and various NCAA schools
