A throwback is an old sports jersey that's been resurrected. Say if you saw a guy (or girl) wearing an O.J Simpson football jersey, he's wearing a "Simpson throwback".

a "throwback" is a jersey of a retired player whether it be basketball, football, baseball, or so on. When you see a rapper wearing a jersey of a player from many years ago, (i.e. Magic Johnson), that is a throwback.

A throwback is a type of cothing article like you see most rappers wearing, like the kind FUBU make, but with actually sproting logos on it. A throwback is also a variation of a pimp cup, like the one Lil Jon has

You were right to assume that the term "throwback" refers to 'an article of clothing,' for it refers to original jerseys, primarily NBA jerseys but NFL jerseys, as well. However, the term also applies to other genres such as music, as in a "throwback" song or album--for instance, an "oldie but goodie."

A throwback jersey is a sports jersey that replicates the jersey of a team or a player from the past. People love throwback jerseys because they remind the fan, regardless of age, of the golden age of their favorite time and team. Sports legends are honored with a throwback jersey for the time while they were at their playing prime.
