Next season is 30th anniversary of their first championship so they are eligible for retro and now there is 20 years since they ditched those logos.

pepis21 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Intresting. Real deal? Production error? Why they didn't unveil this in last season if they sold them in last year? Anyway it's not a bad change but also kinda change for change sake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pelicanfan Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 didnt the rockets bring back the championship season jerseys not too long ago? if so i think they'll be bringing back the white version of them if they do celebrate this anniversary but then we also add the pinstripe jerseys into the equation which they've been sort of wearing these past 2 seasons. the twitter basically confirms that this style is coming back again. so i just wonder if itll be directly in a throwback jersey this time or switched up through a city edition like they've been doing. because if they do celebrate the anniversary they can only have one of each right? or can a team have two throwback jerseys?? two city editions?? (doubt) or maybe they wont do anything for the anniversary at all Quote New NBA court designs by me here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Rockets Twitter stuff is now the red and yellow classic logo. Weird. If I had to guess they're gonna wear a white version of the jersey on a Summit alt court to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the 1994 Finals. They wore the red one a few years ago. But also even if none of this is true and they are just fooling around, well, here is them fooling around a few days ago... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrad. Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 looks to be this season's template for Summer League: Hoping the 3 teams changing "main" uniforms will reflect the changes in their Summer League looks.

FinsUp1214 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 I’m curious how much the three teams’ changes will be reflected in the summer league uniforms (if at all), and how much we’ll be able to read into them. Seeing the Pistons’ wordmark and numbers are blue here rather than red, for example, leaves me to think there’s going to be some variance we’ll have to account for between what wordmark/number treatment is on the real uniforms and what’s on the summer league uniforms. Seems like that’s generally the case anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tBBP Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Unrelated--well, I guess it kinda is related--and not that I want them to change it, but it amuses me how, 27 years later, the Pistons are still using (pretty much) the same font from the Teal Horse era. I'm actually probably more amused by the fact that in all this time since, they haven't even tried to change it...good for them, as it's one of my favorite custom team fonts in sports, quirky as it is. 9 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 People here really need to stop looking to teams' social media outlets for hints about brand changes. It almost never pans out and social media teams usually just do their own thing anyway. Like how the Jags didn't go black and white even though that's what their Twitter profile was just before a big rebrand. Or how the Jets using forest green and neon green on social media meant nothing when their new unis ended up using the 80s-early 90s scheme of kelly green with black trim. 6 Quote PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When something works, there is no real reason to change it. I'm hoping the Pistons stick with it and their (IMO) modern classic jerseys from 2001 - the younger fans are getting pretty loud on social media about wanting them to change, even after a bone was thrown to them with the Teal Classic Edition last year. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliforniaGlowin Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Hopefully we're one year away from a Clippers rebrand to go with their new arena, an identity that reflects L.A. and not the Pistons with a San Diego name. 2 Quote Last updated 5/23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnclearInitial Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Really dumb to sideline the purple like this, especially when the beam had become such a part of their brand. The new wordmark is great, the updated side paneling is better, but they should have switched purple and black on the wordmark, numbers, arm and collar trim. And obviously the away (sorry, the “Icon”) should be purple. Overall this can’t be anything but a downgrade since they went away from their signature color. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
