I hope that's just a prototype and that the real finished product scales it down. Nike already has a good scale set for the swoosh on college basketball uniforms, why not just run with that from the get-go? This is a perfectly acceptable size: That would be perfect, I dont understand why the shorts need the logo as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerseyJosh Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 That swoosh looks stupid. Ironically, it makes it look like a knock off imo. They need to scale it down by at least 10-15%. Otherwise I have no problem with it. And where is the stub hub patch on the away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet for sales purposes. If someone wants to buy just the shorts - you better believe the Nike logo is going to be on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Below the ad maybe? That is why Nike showed us the Philly jersey first, so no one would worry about that, ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikWings Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 At least they're not using the wife beater cut they've given college teams this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I was only joking I actually have two jerseys in that new Nike cut, 2 authentic Team USA Olympic 2016 jerseys. one white Durant and a Blue Irving. Impossible to wear even with a t shirt underneath, looks silly. $200 for 50 grams of garment Only an idiot would buy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extra free adverti$ing $woosh Capitali$m However, with league-wide jersey ads coming and a handful of teams changing uniforms - the unnecessary $woosh is going the least of our concerns imo.

mjd77 Posted November 7, 2016 Share Posted November 7, 2016 I have a good feeling that we won't be seeing sleeves anymore. I'm sure if Nike had their own version or something similar we would have already seen it at the college level, but there have been no signs. In fact, Nike seems to be getting as anti sleeve as you can get with the wife beater template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NBA probably gets to act as a test for the other leagues. Any backlash (merchandise sales dip is most likely one that I can think of) may scare them off. But if it goes how it's going to go, most fans won't worry about it, they'll buy the jerseys with and/or without the corporate sponsors, the NHL will follow suit, and eventually the NFL and MLB will as well. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."
