The actual pictures of the full uniforms look much better to me than the 2K screenshot, though I'd probably still prefer the block font from their Association and Icon jerseys with a 'SIXERS' script and the numerals centered.

Looking through the promotional calendar, they are giving away "classic" shirts on Jan 13th against OKC, so I'd bet we see them then, most likely sooner.

 

UPDATE: From the press release, we get three home games. Also in the release it says that they go on retail in November.

On second thought, this might be the one.

Would someone fix the tracking on that tape? Lol

Oh my goodness!  I might have to get one of each... Love the Sixers script!

They sure did a number on those pinstripes.

From the Crossing Broad article (emphasis mine):

Quote

The Sixers have embraced blue as their identity color over the last few years, so the red jerseys will serve as an alternate, but one that they’ll likely wear more this year than they did last year. A new promotions schedule will outline which uniforms they will wear for which game. They will in fact wear this on Christmas, as the league has done away with the holiday specific jerseys this year in lieu of the four Nike uniforms each team will have. They will also soon show off a new court that they’ll use on Friday nights, similar to the heritage court they used on Saturdays last year, and it will be paired with a fourth uniform that will be unveiled later this year.

So no more Christmas jerseys and the Sixers fourth jersey is a Friday alternate with matching court (some kind of throwback?)

Too thick. And maybe I remember them thinner than they were

Yup...the originals look way better.

[Hoopladawg87 799]

The slightly thicker pinstripes for no apparent reason make the new version look like a bootleg of the old version.

Now that I think about it, I'd love to see matching pinstriped shorts.

Edit: Moved to Clippers-specific thread.

Smh, Clippers gonna clip.

 

I'd call this one a lateral move...equally as horrible as the last black one.

Yeah, I'd probably agree with that. Also, I realized after I posted it that we should keep discussion on it to the Clippers-specific thread, so I went ahead and posted it there instead of here.

Did anyone else notice on the mothership's story about the 2K leaks that the Lakers' statement jersey is their traditional road jersey?  IDK whats up with that.

That's because their white uniform is the Association Edition to match up with the other 29 teams, and their traditional gold home uniform is the Icon edition. So their purple uniform had to take up one of the other two spots.

A lot of the designs are HORRIBLE.
