C's Posted June 25, 2013 Share Posted June 25, 2013 Yup, used to be teams that changed unis would wear the old ones in the preseason and bust out the new threads for the first game of the regular season (at least that's how it was in the 80s & 90s).I think the Pacers did this in 05-06 too.

ShawnBronald Posted June 26, 2013 Share Posted June 26, 2013 Well the Suns have officially unveiled their new logos and they look exactly how we expected (thanks to the leaks). Hopefully they do alter them at some point to include a little more purple. It's not that difficult and makes way more sense than the mostly black color scheme they're using. The colors and their usage should be orange, purple and then black. Oh well, what's done is done. I'll wait until seeing the finished jerseys before being too critical. http://www.nba.com/suns/phoenix-suns-unveil-new-logos Join the movement to bring PURPLE and ORANGE back to the Phoenix Suns!

Conrad. Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 ^ from that link:Looks like that confirms the purple away uni, tho hopefully that's not an exact graphic of the uni, because it looks like a plain black collar and no arm trim.

Xist2inspire Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 That's pretty screwed up to keep a fair amount of purple on the jerseys while minimizing it on the logos. Tradition is the foundation of innovation, and not the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 What's the official unveiling date?No official date, but according to Paul Coro (Suns official beat writer), they will be unveiled in "late September". http://www.azcentral...s-uniforms.htmlJust getting caught up on this thread, but I have a few notes. 1. As far as purple vs. black alt, my guess is the NBA might grant a 4th regular jersey as long as one is sleeved. 2. The Lakers grandfathering is ending. There were more color vs. color matchups last year than we've had in a long time. Someone will wear color at home as often as white before long, but because it's the NBA, the white will still be considered the "primary" home. Or they'll short it by 1 game to avoid some random fee. 3. You can't slap a "LOS" in front of a logo-only Suns jersey and call it Hispanic Heritage night. Hence, the forced "SUNS".4. And finally, in the pic above.... new wordmark leaked? Someone mock that up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian E Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 kudos to the knicks for not reinventing the wheel. they have a strong set, so their alt is a recolor. and it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
