TaylorMade Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I like the design on the front. But that's not a basketball jersey. The NBA doesn't allow t-shirts to be worn under jerseys so I don't understand why this would fly. Not to mention the super tight sleeves look uncomfortable to me. I feel like it'd chafe my armpits.

Plus, there are a growing number of players who wear a compression sleeve from their wrist to above the elbow and it is a different color than the uniform. Just make it one layer.

Sodboy13 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 The Evansville Purple Aces, they ain't.The pinstriped shorts are certifiably baffling. For someone who made a baseball comparison: That's baseball. Accepted design principles in one sport don't necessarily transfer to other sports. And even the baseball analogy fails at a fundamental level, because a baseball concept featuring a solid white jersey with pinstriped pants would likely get laughed clear off these boards.This is a soccer jersey on top of softball pants being called a basketball uniform. It has so many layers of bad ideas layered on top of each other, it's a veritable phyllo dough of failure.

TaylorMade Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 "The rationale is having a full shirt as the team's jersey allows people to represent their team in more settings. Unlike soccer, baseball and football, basketball uniforms are limited, from a fashion perspective, because they are sleeveless."Translation, cash grab.

kw11333 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 A VERY tight t-shirt with baggy shorts looks really dumb.These will eventually go down in history with the cooperalls the Flyers wore, and the shorts the White Sox wore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14er Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Lose the sleeves and the pinstripes (or continue the pinstripes to the jersey), and you're left with a great looking uniform. As is, it's terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tajmccall Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I always laughed when Evanston wore them forever until the early 2000s. These will not last very long. Also, they are Golden State. Why not "the State" boom. Store 1 Store 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Golden One Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I like how the announcement says it's about making something the fan can relate to and wear. Then the warriors say but it's not about making money?? No the release says that exactly what it is.Plus still $300 for a t-shirt?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floydnimrod Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I think it looks dumb. In a few years, hopefully this shooting sleeves on both arms and tight undershirts in basketball will pass like any other fad.
