logos are cool Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 1 hour ago, gosioux76 said: This will look great — as long as the shorts have side panels. If not, it's a major fail. The side panels on the shorts are one of the iconic design elements of the Laker uniforms. They have basically had them on every uniform since they arrived in LA. They pre-date the purple and gold color scheme back when the Lakers were blue and white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Still MIGHTY Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I love these. Love ‘em. Although as others have said, need the side panels on the shorts, or that’ll be a lottttttt of yellow. Speaking of yellow, guess what? The yellow numbers on the purple? Probably my favorite feature of this new look. So much so, I’m definitely getting a purple. They’re the best of the three, IMO.

colortv Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Seems to be quite the divide between those who like gold numbers on the purple jersey and those who don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But maybe not surprising that the biggest change to a throwback-ish uniform would elicit the strongest reactions. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

Or maybe this the way it was always meant to be, and they finally fixed the problem. The numbers on the gold jersey match the lettering, so why wouldn’t the numbers on the purple jersey follow suit?

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 My takes: The trim should be white/purple/white rather than gold/white/purple. The name on the back looks a little bland. Looks better with a white outline. See rookie Kobe below. Maybe the LBJ jersey pictured isn't an authentic That being said, I do like these. And think they are a big upgrade over the previous set.

Lights Out Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I totally agree that the contrasting numbers should have been kept. They look better that way, especially on the purple jerseys. Also, WTF is up with that back collar? Why couldn't they continue the same striping pattern the whole way through? POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Not a fan. They look like a counterfeit throwback that got the trim striping wrong. The Shaq/Kobe era redesign was a modern reimagining of the classic uniform, a spiritual descendant of the Showtime Lakers uniforms. They were different, but not so different that they felt wrong for the franchise. Fixed a lot of the problems the 80's uniforms while keeping the whole vibe intact. I don't get that sense here. This feels like they put the Lakers wordmark and font on the wrong template. Yes, that striping makes that much of a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a championship every decade over 11 in the 50’s-60’s and 5 in 50 years since. Get out of here with that!!! Actually the Celts are seeing as how they have the most championships and don't f*** with a classic jersey that needs no changes. Celts will be adding a couple more 'ships before the Lakers, book it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
