    It's funny...for years I think fans really wanted them to go back to the red road uniforms, and they did...and then the NBA went crazy on the uniforms and in most cases they were meh. In the case of the Blazers uniforms, for the most part they were (IMHO) the wrong shade of red.

    And then they went with some ugly uniforms. The Red ones they have now (the "statement" uniforms) look like a generic practice uniform. Same with the "City" edition. Both were so bland. Sounds like they're keeping both of those, which are nothing to get excited about.

    They should stick to the original styled (well, post 78) uniforms, the original uniforms (with Rip City or Portland stylized across the top), the vertical Blazers ones. But if they are replacing the primary ones (the ones that are closest to the ones from 78 on), they're replacing the wrong ones.

    I think they should just have traditional black road and while home - then one alternative like the red uniforms.

    Other uniforms should just be for one game a season, "City" edition, 77 throwback, etc. It would actually make the uniform cool especially if there was something memorable about that game. The "city" edition uniform for one game a year would be special. When its 20 games its just a bizarre looking very unBlazer like uniform.

    Will the patch be a Chinese company?

    I could totally see that.

    I think the Reds are UGLY. Wrong shade and missing some other accent color.

    So what does this mean exactly? Which uniform is getting replaced?

    Great. they're keeping the red practice jersey & the black with a blue tire-track jersey... and replacing the classic Black & White ones?

    Bad move. The ones that they're keeping are the ones that need replaced

    The Red jersey looks cheap and boring.

    Maybe the front of the jersey will be a view of the Vegas skyline.

    Seriously though I really hope Nike doesn’t fuck this up. I hope it’s not over the top and gaudy.

    I thought this was a thread about the team being sold and relocated to New Jersey.

    The speculation is what the New Jersey will be.

    They need to bring back the vertical white lettering on the red jersey with small letters saying "blazers"....or save that one for 2027 the 50th anniversary of the championship. Whatever they do...get rid of the halloween costume crepe paper looking red jerseys they wear now...I like the classics...I like three color jerseys with black red and white used for all three colors.

    Give me all black with red and gray stripes and some white lettering and accents. It looks good in my head.
