Looking for a game? Here's your guided tour of the country's best pickup basketball courts, from the blacktops of Brooklyn to the asphalt of Anchorage to the gyms of Jackson, Mississippi. It's all inside: where the pros play, the most scenic runs in the land, and a ranking of the top five courts. Chris Ballard and three other former college players piled into a used Chevy van and traveled thirty-one thousand miles in seven months, playing at over a thousand courts in 166 cities in forty-eight states. This is the story of their roundball road trip and a guide to the places, people, and communities they encountered. More than a travel guide, Hoops Nation is a celebration of the game of basketball as it is played in America. It includes guides to streetball fashion, the lingo of the courts, the etiquette of the pickup world, the tricks of old-guy basketball, and tips for the dunking impaired. Also included are profiles of playground legends and dispatches from the legions of basketball lifers who populate the country's courts. This book can tell you where they're running today, all over America. Who's got next?

Comfortable, well put together, nice material, size chart is way off.
Color: Black, Size: 3X-Large
A well put together sweater that is made with very soft yarn, and doesn't seem to have any major structural issues. The zipper works great and the stitching looks like there's not major flaws. The only big issue is the 3XL sweater I got is way off size wise. Oversized sweaters are great, so I was excited about getting this for me to use for day to day wear, and my wife (who is a lot smaller than me) to steal when she's watching tv on the couch or sitting outside, so the disappointment was palatable. Sadly the 3XL size is about the same size as XL sweaters in the closet, where as a few 2xl sweaters we recently ordered from another company are a lot larger than this one. Outside of the major size discrepancy, which could be a major deal breaker for some, the sweater itself is really comfy and really nice. Sadly 3XL is the largest size we could get on the chart.

Well made for the money.
Beautiful, and well made front zipper sweater. I purchased 7 for Christmas and the men in my family loved the soft feel of the fabric. They were true to size..

Very stylish
Color: Khaki, Size: Medium
My husband doesn’t like wearing pullover sweaters because he gets hot after being inside for awhile. This sweater jacket was perfect. It’s stylish and well made. Very comfortable and great price. When I gave him the pkg and reminded me he didn’t like sweaters inside. When he opened it and was pleasantly surprised. Finally he could wear a sweater that was easy to put on and take off. He loved everything about it. I bought more colors and he wears every one of them. Great sweater!
