    Love the old logo.. but I still like our unis and our current concept. What I would like to see sometime is a retro night, which the team has failed to do while every other team does it.

    while I loved the old pinwheel.... I love the new one even more.... more colorful. And I like the slight variations in it

    Just get rid of the fucking silver and I would be a happy man....for a bit anyway

    I prefer the blazer unis to have the more traditional up and down font rather than the slanted font they use now.

    I'm with ya, just as long it means going back to the color scheme/design and not the tight shorts. Nobody needs to see those again.

    The Blazers have done exactly one home retro night.. and they wore the original 1970 expansion jerseys.

    While I hope that the Blazers don't go bonkers like some teams (Cleveland, Miami), I would enjoy a night of retro Championship Year jerseys, and perhaps a night of 90s era ones.

    The retro jerseys are huge revenue streams. Cleveland is making a killing off of their old ugly uni's. Brilliant move. I think it is something that the marketing team should get on, unless PA has quashed all attempts. I know PA was big into rebranding the team as soon as he purchased it.

    I'm trying to remember the specifics from when I asked this on Olive a couple of years ago...but it seems to me that there's an issue with copyrighting. Again, don't remember the details, but it's something like Adidas made the 1977 jersey and the NBA is a Nike league now. Something like that.

    I agree. I think that our uniforms are pretty good as they are.
