_RH_ Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I do not understand uniforms that are super tight in some areas and super baggy in others. Could they not afford to give these guys adult sized shirts, or were child sizes the only ones in stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AAO Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 The colors need to match and this could work. Until then no worky. Also not sure about the half-pinstripes or the white sublimated partial logo. Behance Network || ianbakar.com || Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kajeet Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Werent the Warriors going to go with some shirt looking like jersey this year? I could've sworn I seen that here.The leaked photo photo from a photo shoot was a t shirt. But it didn't match the shorts (pinstripes on shorts, not shirt also non matching yellows). It was most likely just the warm up shirt. They were not going with a t shirt as a jersey. But the latest files out there as nothing for the warriors now. So it appears any new jersey was scrapped for this season.Ha, I was right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I don't buy that they will since after six months it still looks mis matched.They did make other changes to the jersey from the prototype, like the side striping and bridge sublimated.

floydnimrod Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I just don't get the the sleeves thing at all. All the things Adidas was claiming that the new jersey provides are already provide by sleeveless jerseys. If someone wants to look like an 8th grade B team basketball player, then they can wearing 'fashion' sleeves under their jersey. I think we'll start seeing this in college as soon as next year. Hell, we might even see it this postseason, just like Adidas gave their teams new postseason uniforms last year.

Skape7 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Why couldn't they even make the yellows the same?They actually might be the same color of yellow, but the blue pin stripes give it an illusion that the yellow is a different shade.In any case, this combination is a putrid eyesore.

I was looking for the original picture.I was going to go all the way to the first page and go one by one. I even tried to do a google search, but nothing was showing up. The polished version is still bad but much better than the prototype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Interesting... Wonder which other teams will be brave enough to try it.Can you say 2013 Christmas alternates? HmmmAll that said, I expect sleeves to show up in abundance at the 2014 NBA All-Star game, if not on Christmas Day or in the D-League next season. Sleeves give adidas a lot more real estate to place three stripes on.Yes, actually.

Kevin W. Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I thought the league didn't allow the three stripes on the uniforms - or do they just prohibit Adidas' logo?

Billy B Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 These uniforms suck and it's not because of the sleeves. I'm not really against sleeves in basketball, but think it should be a player preference whether they wear them or not. Proviso East High School has always worn sleeves and they pump out NBA players as well as any public high school. The worst thing about these is just that the shorts have pinstripes and the jerseys don't. Imagine how bad a baseball team would look with a solid top and pinstriped pants of the same color. Or if a guy showed up to a job interview in a black suit jacket with pinstriped pants. They'd be laughed out of the room. I think these would be really good uniforms if they whole thing had pinstripes, but this uniform looks like the jersey and shorts come from two completely different sets.

CubsFanBudMan Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 What is the justification for pinstripes on the pants but not on the jersey?"Pinstripes arent really pinstripes... They're cables from the bridge..."-Rick WeltsI don't believe him. There's no way that bridge cables are 5.9% lighter than fabric pinstripes.It wasn't the most outlandish thing I've heard about these, though:Via 670thescore.com “It was the right moment, the right team,” said Lawrence Norman, Adidas’ vice president of global basketball. “Even more important, the right city. When you launch something as innovative as this —that will change the way the players look on the court and the way the fans support the team forever — why not launch it in the most innovative part of the United States?” Big talk. The last time I rolled my eyes this hard, the head of MTV was saying Robbie Williams (?) was their next big superstar.Now for another dated and obscure reference: Jerry Leggett. Western Big Six. Quincy, then Moline. More Illinois high school basketball for you. Those jerseys looked better than these, though. Skin tight is rarely right.
