Josh.0 150 Posted August 4, 2015 Author Share Posted August 4, 2015 http://www.nba.com/raptors/uniforms/homeSomewhat surprised they didn't put "TORONTO" on any of the jerseys, especially with how they have played up Toronto with their marketing. Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealPepman 420 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 http://www.nba.com/raptors/uniforms/homeSomewhat surprised they didn't put "TORONTO" on any of the jerseys, especially with how they have played up Toronto with their marketing.I think the "TO" in the shorts stands out enough for everyone to know The Six.But yeah, I agree, one of the unis should have "TORONTO" on it. I suggest it should be on the red jerseys. Link to post Share on other sites
bowld 2,152 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I would put Raptors on the white and black/red and Toronto on the red and black/gold Link to post Share on other sites
JonYoung320 4 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 I will never understand why teams think they are above putting their city on their uniforms.Because they could "one up it" and use TO as their side panel striping for their shorts. /s Link to post Share on other sites
IceCap 22,703 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 They haven't worn "Toronto" on the road jerseys since 2003. They think that identifying with just Toronto will harm their efforts to be "Canada's team."It's stupid, but that's their reasoning. Link to post Share on other sites
Dynasty 2,429 Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 If they just went with a different font, these wouldn't be too bad. Link to post Share on other sites

JESSEDIEBOLT 147 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 I definitely like the Raptors unis. Simple? Yes. Similar to last years unis? Yes. But they're still nice and I think they'll look great on the court. Link to post Share on other sites
Nyk33 881 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 This Raptors rebrand is just "meh". The "Drake Alternate" is actually my favorite jersey of the bunch since I like the black and gold color scheme (I wish Stern would have let the Pelicans use that color scheme). 1 Link to post Share on other sites
tajmccall 401 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Toronto is Brooklyn adjacent. Drake is Jay-Z adjacent. Both are blah carbon copies of meh. Link to post Share on other sites
CLEstones 630 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Yeah this rebrand is extremely underwhelming. Not having Totonto on any jersey is unfortunate. The "We the..." branding is nooooot great, either. I would have rather them put more emphasis on gold than black or gold than red. Something to differentiate themselves a little bit more. The fonts not matching is a big problem, and not matching the stroke pattern between numbers and letters looks half done. Losing the old secondary logo of the raptor claws coming out of the ball really sucks.Overall, its a serviceable uniform. Some decent sized errors. Nothing too egregious. A lateral change... maybe a slight downgrade.Also, is there any meaning behind the chevrons? Link to post Share on other sites
Nyk33 881 Posted August 6, 2015 Share Posted August 6, 2015 Also, is there any meaning behind the chevrons?The chevrons are pointing upwards to signify the "We The North" slogan. Link to post Share on other sites
