Uniforms—Logos—Court Designs—Socks—Sneakers—Headbands—Mouthguards

It’s a brilliant opportunity to do some neat work and build on the NBA’s history of trendsetting visual design and even complement the fashion sense of the players and it’s funny that they seem to just whiff it 1/2 to 2/3 of the time.

i take back all the nasty things i said

Design is onto something, though I'm not sure they quite got there.
Color scheme very bad.

sick

That's great, and it also belongs on this thread

Amazing that they can fuck up so many designs this year but still produce beauty like this.

very memphis (not grizzlies)

ah theyre modeled after the banners

From the rafters to the parquet, it’s all about #TheBanner. pic.twitter.com/YVwvba5U1j

im not personally one for historical triumphalism but from a design pov its cool to have the motif transfer between diff forms, also theyre just nice uniforms

yeah, i didn't catch the banner reference initially. it's interesting. at least it's a coherent design idea. zach lowe tweeted that he didn't like them, continuing his run of terrible uniform opinions

lol not only does he have the worst possible taste he loves to write glowing accounts the corporate branding process producing the buzz city earned it edition uniforms in which the hive represents the public/private partnership that makes this great city thrive

all jersey sponsors are the most low end companies

Vistaprint has been around for years at least!

GE had a nice logo at least and was not some internet company thats prob engaging in major accounting fraud

glad the celtics are still insisting on rendering the logo in team colors if nothing else

i mean the freaking lakers cant even get anyone better than the hallucinatory drop shippers wish, they need to end this jersey patch charade

glad the celtics are still insisting on rendering the logo in team colors if nothing else

LONG LIVE ROCK

We didn’t start the fire

we should let the folks on ILM know about this

poll: c l e v e l a n d

i recognize the A from nirvana's logo, is capital E from metallica?

JUST IN: Under Armour is officially launching its standalone brand with NBA star Steph Curry, in a bid to rival Nike's Jordan Brand. Will it work?👟🏀 $uaa $nke https://t.co/RhVTYgqLqt

this is a hail mary

And for a year now, Under Armour has been No. 1 on a list of brands "no longer worn" by male teens surveyed by Piper Sandler.

Nike is also still No. 1 in footwear, while Under Armour dropped to eleventh place from ninth in Piper Sandler's fall "Taking Stock with Teens" report.

lol rough

low effort

🚨 VAZOU!

Aqui estão as primeiras imagens da camisa City Edition do HOUSTON ROCKETS.

A expressão "H-Town" foi mantida, mas na mesma fonte dos demais uniformes. É um jeito informal de se referir a Houston.

The back of it makes it look like a standard mavs jersey

of course makes sense

Blue(s).

Inspired by Milwaukee’s meaning as “the gathering place by the water,” introducing the 2020-21 City Edition uniform.https://t.co/j5BaEDFYp0 pic.twitter.com/lJ27gYuYQI
