Ask a collector which Pro Elite generation matters most and the answer is usually 2019 — and the reason is not a medal table. It is what Nike race kit did on the roads that year, most of it inside eleven weeks of autumn: a world record for the half marathon, a marathon two seconds off the world record, a women's marathon record by eighty-one seconds, a world 10 km record, and a man covering the distance in under two hours.
It started in April: Eliud Kipchoge won London in 2:02:37, then the second-fastest marathon ever run. The autumn began in Copenhagen on 15 September, when Geoffrey Kamworor took the half marathon world record to 58:01. Two weeks later Kenenisa Bekele won Berlin in 2:01:41, two seconds outside Kipchoge's record, with a 34-year-old's second half. Then Vienna, 12 October: on a closed loop in the Prater, behind a rotating phalanx of pacers, Kipchoge ran 1:59:40.
A team t-shirt is the training and travel piece of an issued athletics kit — worn in the hotel, the bus and the warm-up area, never in the race. It carries the same federation badge as the competition kit, in street sizing and heavier knits.
The modern issue is polyester — 50 of the 56 tees in this archive declare it — because cotton holds twenty times the moisture. Cotton survives at the travel end of the set, where nobody sweats and softness wins.
The team tee is the piece of an issued kit that never starts a race. It is what athletes wear in the hotel, on the bus, in the food hall and through the warm-up — the working uniform of everything around competition. It carries the same federation or team badge as the race kit, which is why it belongs to the same issued set and why collectors treat it as kit rather than merchandise.
