Information about the jerseys from Adidas:
Created with the nation’s best high school basketball players in mind, the uniforms feature a re-engineered mesh fabric designed for increased breathability and French terry wipe-zones for further sweat management during the game’s biggest moments. The reflective jersey print and gold jock tags commemorate high school basketball’s highest level of achievement. The back of each jersey’s neck sports the outline of each athlete’s home state while the front of the jersey reads “Class of 2017” above the jock tag. The underside of the waistband on the shorts reads “All American” when rolled up….The women’s collection features stars down the side of the racerback top and the shorts.
