Youth #1 Sam Houston State Bearkats Basketball 2026 Lightweight Fan Version Jersey - Black
Quick answer: Sam Houston State Bearkats colours, fan version construction, made for young supporters, 2026.
The Sam Houston State Bearkats build, in short
- Lettering bonded flat, so the back bends with the fabric
- Shoulder seam sits on the shoulder rather than halfway down the arm
The Sam Houston State Bearkats supporter build, in plain terms
The Sam Houston State Bearkats fan version has no player-issue stiffness and no display-case pricing: it is built around the way a shirt is actually used - washed weekly, worn to class, worn to the ground, worn on a Tuesday.
Made to be handed down
On this Sam Houston State Bearkats shirt, between growth spurts, washing and playground use, a kids' shirt has a hard life.
Why the armhole is cut that way
An open armhole looks like a style choice and is not: it is what lets the Sam Houston State Bearkats basketball build move with the wearer instead of against them.
Version and sizing, plainly
Cut: fan version. That means a softer knit than the match shirt, a fit with room to breathe, and a price that makes sense for something you will actually wash every week.
There is no vanity sizing on this Sam Houston State Bearkats build, so the letter on the label is the letter on the chart.
