Indy Pride Revival

Indy Pride Revival

The Indiana Pacers are making a push for their first NBA Finals since 2000, and some fans are digging deep into their closets to wear vintage gear from that era. For Landon Duncan, it's a chance to relive childhood memories.

"With the series coming up against the Knicks, it just revives a lot of those childhood memories," said Pacers fan Landon Duncan.

Duncan regularly wore a Reggie Miller jersey as a child during the 2000 NBA Finals. He has outgrown the jersey, but his family never got rid of it.

"We always give my mom a hard time because she holds on to everything," Duncan said. "She shows up with this bag with about three different Reggie Miller jerseys."

The vintage Pacers gear for adults is also in high demand. Angel Tapia, owner of The Hype Vault vintage clothing store in Brownsburg, says Pacers apparel is the hardest to keep in stock.

"Whenever we get them, they sell within days, and sometimes on the first day we get them," Tapia said. "Everybody is on social media asking if we have jerseys and vintage Pacers gear. We have a couple in store now, but they're flying off the shelves."
