Teams, people, players, states countries, ect and corporations used to take risk in design it turned out goated or dog water.

It's not that people are nostalgic, it's that people are hungry for art and culture, not that processed imitation culture they feed us now. I'm less worried about a purple 90's raptor jersey and more worried why we don't have sick new Orléans purple, green yellow pelican's jerseys will a cool pelican guy or a thunders jersey with thunderbolt camo and a cool hammer or pacers with tire tracks camo print on it, or kings with alts or roman emperors and Japanese emperors or just anything fun and new.
@@Evan-i4e You're cooking with this one bro. This sounds like a concept I read about years ago called hauntology, coined by Jacques Derrida and expanded on by Mark Fisher
Nah JT already revoked ur championship with all the stuff he did after, this is just icing to the cake at this point. Ur chip came with a serious cost.
Nah bro there's no excuse for this. They have a team of graphic designers with years to make these jerseys. It's in their best interest to make the nba look profitable, fashionable, and respectable. Someone at Nike just doesn't give a shit and its that simple. Jersey sales will die and the nba will take a bigger cut from a company that actually gets jerseys sold.
Don't understand the lack of creativity? Was this Donahoe guy blind ? Did he get rid of the top tier designers in that job cut? I mean what is goin on ... its lazy and unacceptable
Phoenix jersey is a throwback homage to the 95 all star jerseys, those were great, even with "The Valley" on front. Raptors nod to Vince looks nice, too.
the problem is that they make a new jersey or 2 every single season. They’re running out of ideas for new jerseys. Before nike had the NBA license, a teams alts would be used for multiple years, which helped them be more iconic. Think the bulls pinstripes, they were alts that were used for like 5 years
Worst teams should get the worst jerseys and keep them until they make the playoffs. Then you get the playoff jersey edition that you keep until next year when you either make or miss again and get new jersey. If you win you keep the cool jersey until you lose.
These are definitely AI-designed. There's no way an actual designer came up with these. They should do fan contests for city jerseys so the fans are more involved.
the fact that some of the best ones (jazz and raptors) are throwbacks to their old vintage look says alot lmao, i think those two are the best imo, the majority of the other ones look like just the bare minimum in terms of effort, id love it if we can just wear our old vintage throwbacks instead, black magic pinstripes, the old black & red 76ers jersey, vancouver grizzlies etc so many good ones the old heat jerseys with the fire accent over the T are elite
I struggle to buy the out of ideas reasoning. I feel anyone who has spent time in one of those cities could come up with a list of 10 landmarks, events, themes, or vibes that represent their city as the basis. Each of those ideas could be brought to life in many ways as well. For example, if they wanted to use the Indy 500 for inspiration for a Pacers jersey, they could draw inspiration from the flags, track, event colors, lights, racing stripes, car numbering, etc. And if they don’t want to make their interns feel any form of accomplishment, AI could come up with hundreds too.
The golden state warriors lotus jersey from a few seasons back would arguably be a top 3 jersey within this years city jerseys, thats how bad these jerseys are.
i feel like they need to take a step back and chill with the abundant number of jerseys. every team should have just 3 jerseys: 1 home, 1 away, and 1 alt one that can either be inspired from the city (like these) or straight up classic ones. i feel like if there's a split between teams getting classic treatments and teams getting a fresh/modern treatment will balance things out. quality over quantity is key
i can count the good jerseys in one hand. sucks that my timberwolves have sucky regular jerseys and sucky city edition. hopefully they bring the classics again.
@@donnydogpiss4533 100%. hope they can bring them back or recreate something similar. i hate every single jersey the wolves have currently. last seasons throwbacks were cool though. i hope they bring those back too.
Golden State jersey is absolute trash. They should have just gone with another black and yellow version. And wtf is that font? Like who's designing these bro? That's embarrassing.
Thunder jersey I initially didn't like it, but I like the fact that they switched it to Oklahoma instead of OKC. Gives it a state identity instead of a city to include everyone.
The city jerseys definitely peaked during the 21/22 season when they made them a mesh of past jerseys to commemorate the 75th anniversary. It's pretty much been ass before and after.
back then I wonder why there's no plain/ no number nba jersey like the europe football jersey at first I thought no one in america only support the team, they support the player first but then I realize the absence of number decrease aura so much
Absolutely love the Raptors jersey having it with Vince's jersey doing the "It's Over" dunk Mostly agree, but with a few differences - Like the Kings paying homage to their Cincinnati Royals color scheme so I'd move it to A tier Actually like the bones pattern in the Pelicans jersey and the Magic jersey works for me too so those are B tier Hornets is a little plain to me so it'd be in my C tier
I dont like the raptors jersey because the logo looks too small. If it were closer to the actual retro jersey I'd like it more. Most of these look awful and uninspired. They need to go back to using throwbacks. Nike used to sell "rewind" jerseys that were throwback designs with the modern team colors. They could even do that and it would be more inspired than this
The ode to Vince Carter having the Raptor wear #15 and going between the legs like he did after the alley oop from McGrady in the 2000 dunk contest. VinCar-ciraptor
The Sixers always make pretty good jerseys and the homage to the spectrum version is a hit! 🔥 I will be buying all the city edition gear…Like I have years past.
i think the warriors one will look A LOT better with the numbers, but they will still be underwhelming . i’m a lot higher on the spurs, rockets and sixers ones. they will also look better with numbers.
What gets to me are the quality of the shorts, they feel like paper. You would think with better technology that quality should get better but it's the opposite.
@KyleLowryRaptorsGOAT just feel like some of them didn't stick with the team core and color scheme. The next thing you know the Lakers will be wearing a red city jersey 🤦🏾
I could see this idea getting a lot of hate but what if each team had their mascot on their jersey as their city jersey? I think it’d be fun for a season
It is a mandate from Nike that the city jersey has to change every season. The only reason you saw the Suns “Valley” city edition jersey for two seasons was because Nike gave them Special permission due to Covid.
The Raptors jersey that is made to look like Vince Carter’s iconic eastbay dunk is absolutely incredible. So much character I wish my Timberwolves had gone with something better.
I agree with everything on this list. I think the Warriors should’ve gone back to the black jerseys. Heat should’ve went with the White Hot and Back In Black jerseys
In my opinion the Pels jersey is S tier, Brooklyn is C tier at least, & no way the Hawks is any higher than C tier. Other than that I totally agree with everything else. Good list. & classic jerseys always go hard!
As a Professional Graphic Artist & Designer for almost 3 decades, I can confidently say all of these look amateur-ish...like. The NBA decided to say "hey let's order our jerseys from Temu this year" ..🤦♂️
Jazz wanted a black and white uniform, but the NBA denied it because of San Antonio and Brooklyn always having those as primary colors, so they said eff it and the the yellow in
This ultra minimalist trend in design makes me so mad. One thing is to streamline a logo, another thing is to send a whole identity to the trash bin.🤦🏻♂️
Weird to see the tie dye shirt on the nuggets my first reaction was that it was a Whalton tribute but he played for the Blazers. Champion shirts would be cool, kinda like yellow mallot in cycling. The bragging rights would make it worth it.
I do agree that the jerseys have been losing creativity but this is overheating imo. The spurs, sixers , pelicans, and warriors are all so much lower than they should be. The warriors one should be A to S
Is this a new meta for every title defending team?? Where after the chip, Nike comes in and shoves a more than terrible city jersey next season so they can mess up the confidence of the title defending team??
I was talking about how good the Celtics city jerseys have been. Besides that stupid 2021 one they've been consistently making some of the best in the league every year. This one is horrible
They need to go back to their throwback jerseys from the 2000s as their city jerseys. Have 3 city jerseys, home, away and alternate. Use the Sixers and Nuggets for example. They can use their black, white and blue jerseys with the gold lettering. Denver can go back to their white, baby blue and yellow jerseys.
@threecone With the Warriors jersey, they said it has to do with the Golden Gate Bridge, the red is the tops, and the rest is I guess on the shorts. TBH I'm a Dubs fan and I am also unsure what I think of them right now
Nike/Fanatics have ruined every jersey in the three big leagues. NFL and MLB jerseys are trash compared to what they used to be. Also, Fanatics bought Mitchell & Ness, so you can't even get a high quality throwback anymore.
I'd be interested to see what the sales have been each year for these - I am guessing that Nike is following the money, so it seems likely that more people are buying these newer ones that we all seem to think are terrible!
At least the Raptors brought back the goddamn Raptor. Like its about time. Only thing missing is more purple but ill take what i can get. I also like the Cavs one cause of that shade of blue they used
How are you going to complain that a lot of teams just reused jersey designs with different colors but then say the Miami vice jerseys were amazing? Idc how good the original concept is/was, stay consistent
Just bring them addidas jerseys back. The representation of those designs brought to the team back then. These designs were like brought up from a random thought damn.

Worst teams should get the worst jerseys and keep them until they make the playoffs. Then you get the playoff jersey edition that you keep until next year when you either make or miss again and get new jersey. If you win you keep the cool jersey until you lose.
whoever was repsonsible for designing the jerseys in the 90s and early 2000s. Bring that person back cause its been downhill ever since.
