tBBP Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 22 hours ago, FiddySicks said: I have absolutely no idea why they went with a ring around the Numbers, but when those were first released, I LOVED THEM. But then they played what felt like two decades in them and they got stale fast. Especially when the fabrics got so much duller. Also, to bring back up the ban on black jerseys, I remember that and I actually understood it somewhat? Even though I kinda like this look, there was absolutely no need for this uniform set. It felt like overkill even when I was like 9. Complete aside, but I always loved that alternate. It's still one of my favorite alternates from that time—and shoot, of all time, really. And at least that fit within their greater brand identity of the time... 1 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...
BBTV Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 The wordmark looked really low on those, probably a combination of it's extreme angle and also to keep some distance between it and Jerry West.

I haven't heard anything since 2021 and assumed it was dead. If they do anything with playoff teams the NBA Champion should get either a gold version of one of their jerseys or a special patch.

pepis21 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Wouldn't mind if Bucks replace their current unis by white and green version of this: Also wouldn't be surprise if they introduce a black statement of this for next or after next season. 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milwaukee happens to have had several of those already. Not in place of the antler unis for primaries, though. Bucks are one team that shouldn't have a black uniform, btw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the blocks of color on the sides for me, it's the logo and the font that lacks character that weren't quite it since the beginning, and the color palette is also on the drab side for the Bucks. They do get the most out of this identity with the antler uniforms. These were the perfect and ideal Bucks' uniforms and identity, both the green and the white home sets. The gorgeous and distinctive shades of color with the right balance, the shiny fabric and the beautiful unique pointed collar that they got rid of soon after for unexplicable reasons, all worked perfectly. The switch to regular fabric and the little subsequent changes such as replacing the collar with a generic league-wide wishbone and de-capitalizing the first and last letters in the wordmark watered this set down too, but not in a drastic, game-changing way. That era had so many great and quality uniform designs, while featuring a limited amount at that. 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosioux76 Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I thought the NBA's shiny fabric era was horrible. Some good uniform designs, like the Bucks, ended up looking cheap and gaudy. As for the team's Earned edition uniforms, I think most of you are right in believing the teams should adopt those full-time. They're a perfect representation of the Bucks brand. Personally, I like anything that attempts to recreate the green/red or green/green rainbow side panels from the '80s, but that's mostly due to nostalgia. I thought the Bucks were among the most visually appealing teams of that era. The Earned editions, I admit, might represent the brand identity more, though. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds ridiculous, but ok let's say it's true, so with that please tell us which team would have Classic uniforms and what kind of it?
