VikWings Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Really like the Kings new jerseys. Even the black alt. The Purple SAC jersey is pointless and unnecessary though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepis21 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Kings has really nice uniforms, but this SAC makes no sense, it would be ok with a different look. Great that they kept Powder Blue unis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutmasterflex Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Kings say the three stripe stitches represent "our city, our pride, our foundation." Total BS. Every team has those. It's an adidas marketing thing. Kings just making stuff up to make those stripes seem important. Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pabig Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Why do they need two different, apart from the text totaly identical, purple jerseys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I've said it before, but I'll say it again. The "SAC" moniker really doesn't bother me. It's a pretty common term around here when referring to the city, and it's really not that much different from ATL or PHX. That's kind of an NBA thing, so, whatever. I actually like that it's on a jersey that's really similar to the primary road set. It makes it so it doesn't stand out as much. It probably could've been on a grey/silver jersey, but that's splitting hairs a bit IMO. The best part of this set, though? No stupid sleeved jerseys!

KittSmith_95 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 The lion logo isn't being used anywhere on the jerseys? These are simple, classy & work fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjd77 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Still a bit disappointing to me not seeing "Sacramento" on any of them. Not really feeling the black alternate, and is it me, or is the Kings wordmark a bit smaller on the black one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 BTW, this came up. Yes, that is the flag for the city of Sacramento. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which lion logo? The black alt uniform has the standing lion logo(albeit small) just below the neckline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayMac Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Not bad. IMO, the black alternate needs a little more purple. The home needs a little more black. I like the away one and the purple alternate is pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScubaSteve Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 The Kings have turned, what I've always thought to be, a bland and unsalvageable brand into one of the fresher, cleaner looks in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadojoker Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 The SAC alt is the best one..other than that. I'd give it 3-4 years before they rebrand again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 Why is the black called the "global" jersey? Do they only wear it when playing in Lisbon and Tokyo?

CLEstones Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 One thing in defense of the new Kings' uniforms is the symmetry between the home and away. I like that the inside stripe is purple, with gray outside of it, and then purple outside of that. Then they just change the primary color between white and black. That's a nice touch. Also, all the color play well together. A lot of times we see these re-brands and organizations/teams/schools just throw in a 3rd or 4th color and it sticks out like a sore thumb. All these colors play well together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ltjets21 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 So bland, im tired of the same font on all the jerseys...The KINGS font they threw away and the old sacramento were 10x better. Total failure for such unique colors, everyone in the league just wants to look the same knowadays.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted June 15, 2016 Share Posted June 15, 2016 The subtle hints of powder blue are definitely an hommage to the inagural 86-90 era, in which they were still using KC era powder blue. Their new colors are definitely an hommage to the current era with a few differences. The home, road, and alternate striping are most likely an hommage to the 86-90 home striping pattern and the similar 03-08 home and road striping pattern. The Global jersey looks like it's paying hommage to the 95-02 black road jersey. We haven't seen the backs yet. But judging by the way these were put together giving lots of hommages to past history, there's a possibility at least one the new jerseys will have the nameplate underneath the back numbers. We'll see, once more pictures are uploaded... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
