What uniforms in current use do you think will be thrown back to in 25-30 years?

I'll start:

It's a tough thing to predict. You basically need to think of a set that is beloved enough that the team would bring it back, but not too beloved that it'll still be in use for the next few decades. These are a couple I can think of, mainly because of their association with championships.

Not that Eagles one. They'll be wearing that forever.

I think the Twins will throwback to their current home navy blue jerseys sometime in the future. They are the uniforms I associate mostly with the 2019 Twins, which I think will go down as their most memorable team since 1991 if they don't win a World Series soon.

[BBTV]

The Twins won the World Series recently?

[C-Squared]

Carolina, for sure. It's pretty wild they've gone so long with essentially the same uniform while teams with far more tradition & history have gone off the deep end.

Hopefully not this exact one, but I'd love to see the Vice Heat make a comeback in future years, and hopefully as a replacement for the red/yellow/black set:

If this thread way made a year ago you could have said the patriots.

Yeah I think at this point with as many people clamoring for the Vice colors as there are, the Heat may as well make the perma-switch to the Vice colorway--though, as noted above, not in ^ that guise. 

 

(That would also help out the Skyforce up here in town, too...red and black has never really suited them, plus they looked better in bright teal.)

[Green27]

Good question. I think the Seahawks will eventually move to a newer template and possibly even prioritize their action green color, so these Superbowl/LOB era uniforms will someday be worn as 'throwbacks'.

not technically “current,” but close enough and fits the idea of the topic

[beachperroAZ]

I have seen a lot of chatter on Twitter about people wanting the all Navy Charger look during the LT/Rivers years in San Diego.

These aren’t current, but I think it could be seen in the same light as the late 90s Cavs or Rockets.

I'm sure that this is a hot take, but I really liked this set. Swap out lime for yellow, make the red the primary away uniform, flip the number colors, and limit the use of the pattern to only around the collar and this is one of the better looks in the NBA. It's a really nice, modern template that doesn't feel too over-the-top or gimmicky, lime color notwithstanding. Perfect for a energetic city like Atlanta for an up-and-coming young team like the Hawks. Are there better looks in the Hawks history? Sure, but this look is by no means the worst and was a few small tweaks away from being one of the better looks in the team's storied history.

I’ll go one step further and say I liked the volt for the Hawks. It feels analogous to the Seahawks use of lime green. It’s pretty subtle and restrained, thankfully they never came out with a volt jersey.

No, but they did this:

If they used the regular fonts from that era that'd be a solid alternate look. The black on volt works as an extension of that set without going too crazy, plus it's a nod to a beloved throwback set.  As a regular uniform, I'd hate it. As an alternate, it's fine.

I'd love to see white heat vice again!!! That's my favorite.  Also hornets mint green.

I like that jersey too.  It feels very Atlanta.
