New Nike Uniforms: How Bad Are They Going To Look?

[Archie Moses]

Dudes on reddit made a concept of the Community jersey

I feel honored to have the Jazz's jerseys designed after me. The Utah Archies.

Hehepeepeecaca

I think we'll get them in the next year or two. Nike seems to want to have a ton of jerseys for every team. There were like 5 teams that got throwbacks this season, and I wouldn't be surprised if they expanded it to more teams in the future.

We should start a petition for at least 1 retro jersey for the Jazz. I don't care whether it's the old J note jersey or the purple mountain, at least get 1. Other teams' got them, heck some teams have 2 or 3, why can't we?!?!

I have to apologize in advance, but what are Donovan Mitchell jerseys selling for at Vivint in the gold colorway? My daughter "has" to have one for her christmas present. She insists that she's going to get him to sign it also when we get to a game, which who knows when that will be.

Depends on if you get the official jersey or knockoff. I remember there being about a $60ish difference in cost between the 2.

I haven’t bought a new jersey since a gobert one from a few years back. The authentic was over 100 dollars. I think the knockoff was like 35 or 40 bucks.

Just out of curiosity, in general would a player sign a 'knockoff' jersey at an official signing?

He isnt talking about actual knockoffs. Nike makes the actual jersey that the NBA players wear then they make a jersey with less expensive materials that arent meant to be played in. The former cost a lot more than the latter.

Are you sure? There seems to be a HUGE difference in price... $35/$40 vs $100...

Yes, no one sells knock-off jerseys inside a NBA arena. This isnt China.

I think the choice marketing term is 'replica'.

I think Nike calls them "swingman" jerseys

Yes cy is right. Knockoff is the wrong term.
Replica is the correct term.

 

[NAOS]

I dont think Ingles is going to pull off that color scheme very well.

lmao

 

[NAOS]

Do you guys think this constitutes 'proof' that the jerseys will be a red-orange-yellow sorta a thing? Is it too late to join ONE LOVE's community drive to push for purple mountain retro jerseys?

@colton, can you pls weigh in here? tia

 

[The Midnight]

Yes cy is right. Knockoff is the wrong term.
Replica is the correct term.

Judging by how durable (not) the actual jerseys are I think just get the replica ones. I don't think the average person on the street or even an average fan can tell the difference anyway.

This is what I will most likely do as I really only wear them for games at home or at a sports bar/restaurant.

Proof? No. Additional verification? Yes.

And for what it's worth, I think it looks hideous. Looks like a U of U hat, not a Jazz hat. Hope it's not the real thing.

I think JFC should pool together some resources to make sure that you and @fishonjazz get one of these new hats, tbh.
And, lmfao, this is ****ing proof, bro. lololol

the difference between authentic and swingman jerseys is stark, btw. I'm not trying to convince you to spend the extra dough, but don't go into this thinking you're getting something that's just slightly different.

 

[NAOS]

also, LOL, at ONE LOVE talking about the general tastes an attitudes of the average NBA fan.... from his outpost in New Zealand.

copy that, buddy!
