Mitchell & Ness Lakers 1988 NBA Finals Snapback Purple #1988finals #showtimelakers #magicjohnson #mitchellandness #vintagestylesnapback All-purple wool-blend crown and brim, embroidered Lakers logo front, “The 1988 NBA Finals” script in white and red on the side panel, yellow M&N script on the back, plastic snap closure. 1988 was the Showtime Lakers — Magic, Kareem, Worthy, Scott — completing their back-to-back championships against the Pistons after taking down the Celtics in ’87. The 1988 Finals cap is the harder year to find in the M&N Lakers Finals capsule compared to the more commonly stocked 2009 and 2010 reissues. Tonal purple-on-purple build reads cleaner with summer fits than the higher-contrast yellow/purple combos.
