johnnysama Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 According to the sportslogos.net Golden State Warriors page, by 1984-85, the team switched to white jerseys as their home uniform (pictured here: http://www.sportslogos.net/logos/view/27kwzpmppb9bfyaybday5meei/Golden_State_Warriors/1985/Home_Uniform) However, I came across this ad from 1985 that shows them wearing gold equivalents of their mid-1980s set, with purely blue striping on the jersey and waistband: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Golden-State-Warriors-RARE-1985-Plank-Road-Draft-Promo-Poster-Chris-Mullen-RC-/132632883859 Does anybody know whether this set was ever worn in an actual game?

Discogod Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I've got some pics of it in action in a preseason game against the Sonics (who are wearing their home unis). I'll try and dig them out when I get home from work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimball Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I will have to hunt down some pictures, but I am fairly sure Mullin played in the gold jerseys during his rookie season.

kimball Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 There tends to be some discrepancies on the mothership when it comes to NBA dates (especially pre-1990 NBA), mainly because there hasn't been as much research done compared to pro baseball and football.

cheo25 Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 The Warriors first adopted those gold throwbacks for the 1975-76 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnysama Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 So, based on what we know, the Warriors wore gold at home for a limited time well into the mid-1980s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
