    They will likely look better when the players actually wear them, also is the Nike logo gonna be on the actual player worn jerseys? Cause I don't remember seeing an Adidas/reebok logo on player uniforms just the NBA logo.

    Right? These uniforms are the best (Obviously I'm biased because they were wearing them when I became a fan but still)

    I wonder how much money was spent "designing" these new uniforms.

    I'm by no means an expert in Graphic design -at all - but these, even to me, look amateur AF.

    I may be alone in this, but I like the clean simple look of the new jerseys. I think the other two will be even better. Also, we kind of got what we wanted with the font. I'm pretty sure everybody wanted to get rid of the italicized lettering.
    They look classic to me.

    I think we're all in agreement that the previous font had to go. The new font just feels too simple and the serifs on the P and T in Portland feel out of place. We had an amazing font from the 70s/80s that was unique to this franchise ... why not go back to that?

    I can see that. I love the old school fonts. But, the simple thing fits and is definitely more of a modern take. I mean, if it was completely up to me, I would use the all lower case font from the current "ripcity" logo for everything. I'm a sucker for lower case. But reading through comments, it seems like a lot of people are being overly harsh on what is a good and super clean design. Just my opinion.

    Yea you guys are trippin, they slimmed down the jerseys and shorts and when worn will be an obvious improvement. I dig the new logo and the uniforms released so far.

    Pet bottles? What the hell are pet bottles?!? Are they keeping pets in bottles or using pets as bottles? Either way, I'm outraged!
