Hate the graffiti wordmark, hate the gray, hate the asterisk looking stars. Yet for some reason I love this uniform. Somehow it all works together. I really like everything they did here except for the wordmark. Obviously the graffiti-inspired art direction is a great idea but the execution makes it feel too corny to me. It reminds me of something that AND1 would have made in the 2000's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea man I was gonna say I'd love to see some full graffiti concepts for this. That BKLYN text is a bit messy for me but something close to that. I also discovered the Nets subway uniform concept someone did, I love that look too. I'd like some Nets gear in the subway font.

UnclearInitial Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I really like the graffiti stars, great spin on the ABA Nets look. I do wish the grey was darker, closer to the previous Statement, and that number sorely needs an outline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ror1997 Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Anybody else feeling the mandela effect here? could’ve sworn these had stars before and after the B and N like * BKLYN * Yankees, Nets and Saintshttp://gif.mocksession.com/2011/03/netsfan/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliforniaGlowin Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I actually like the darker grey too. Now that I see them together, the silver kinda drifts into Spurs territory. Last updated 2/26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I say that as native Brooklyander. College sports as we know them are just about dead. The lid is off on all the corruption that taints just about every major program and every decision that the schools or the NCAA make is only about money, money, and more money. We'll have three 16+ team super-conferences sooner rather than later, killing much of the regional flair and traditional rivalries that make college sports unique and showing the door to any school that doesn't bring money to the table in the process. Pretty soon the smaller schools are going to have to consider forming their own sanctioning body to keep the true spirit of college sports alive because the NCAA will only get worse in it's excess from here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tremperbball10 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 So going through the Bucks jersey schedule, we wear our city jersey against blue, red, black, & purple uniforms so it can't be any of those colors and needs to clash so something like cream or yellow again? Maybe white, lime green, orange, grey? Also is it confirmed the NBA scrapped the earned jerseys this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4One Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 The more you look at the Brooklyn jersey, the more it grows on you. Too bad the number font doesn't really match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont care Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 11 hours ago, cwilz305 said: Not a Nets Fan, but the Jersey is great except for two things. 1. The numbers should fit the font used. That's a minor gripe since it's a one year uni but I'm glad that they went to a local artist to do their uniform that also fits the current nets brand. 2. The bigger issue should be the "infor" ad patch. That ad patch in my opinion has always kept the Nets uniform sets from being great. I wish the Nets told infor to change their logo for their jerseys so that its less intrusive but will still pop out. At least its not as bad as the Love's patch for Oklahoma City... Statement jerseys are on 2 year rotations not 1 like city jerseys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a little worried the grey jerseys might get a little lost on that court, though the white and black jerseys should look great. I don't mind the number font thing; in fact I prefer it this way. I think in this current era of a million different ideas being thrown against the wall, keeping a consistent number font across jerseys that otherwise don't look like a set is one way to make a team continue looking like themselves. 7 hours ago, dont care said: Statement jerseys are on 2 year rotations not 1 like city jerseys But everything we've heard suggests that many teams are keeping their Statement jerseys for at least a 3rd year this coming season, so that much is still TBD.
