If that's the case, I don't think we are seeing any new uniforms being released for a while. Both the Wolves and Blazers have already said they'll be unveiling their new uniforms later this summer, so perhaps there's a way for teams to show off the uniforms before the deal with Nike officially takes effect.

I expected the away jersey to go back to purple...did not expect all of the additional changes. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

BJ Sands Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Dear Suns, Most 90s uniforms should not be brought back. Yours are an exception. Very slightly update these and you're good. Forever. Warmest Regards, BJ Sands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjd77 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I think a great idea for PHX would be to use a wordmark/number font similar to the inaugural set and have side panels that would essentially be the sunburst, leading to the ball on the bottom of the shorts. This would be a way to keep the sunburst without screaming '90s, and keep the front of the jersey clean and simple, like most are these days.

ScubaSteve Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I didn't realize the current Suns set was so hated. The heavy use of black sucks, sure. But I think they're one of the better looking teams in the league. I'll head over to Unpopular Opinions now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd just add purple to the homes, and get rid of the butt stripe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple and orange work really well on their own and I've always loved the "sunburst" design on the shorts, but I do agree with @FinsUp1214 that the fonts could be made a bit more consistent. Something like this beauty by @mbannon92, perhaps? Give it a bit more of a Southwestern flair, and you'd have a look that's both classy and distinctive.

Only thing I'd tweak is a white stripe on the road instead of yellow, but this is really nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnWis97 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 More often than not, I prefer block numbers. But those block numbers don't work with that font. Mane something more Bears=like would make sense.

FinsUp1214 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 Yeah I was just coming to say, that throwback wasn't entirely accurate. Wordmark was a little less squat, slightly different wordmark font, and the number font is wrong. They also never wore those socks as far as I know. There was also this version with the block numbers, which was still a bit different: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suns1977 Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 I am not sure if this was an official version or just a fake retro, but I don't remember the old western home jersey's having purple trim and purple lettering/numbers. I do like it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperV03 Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Apparently the new uniforms and apparel for next season will not feature the updated NBA logo: https://www.nba.com/amp/league/article/2017/07/06/first-look-nbas-refreshed-logo-2017-18-season Seems like they should've just waited a year so that the updated logo could be implemented across all applications instead of having the old logo on the uniforms and apparel for 2017.
