IMO this is the most iconic Jazz jersey of all time.

The insane juxtaposition of having the word "jazz" against mountains makes no sense, but it looks cool af. I fugging hate that we put "Utah" over it now.
 
Like the whole concept of "Utah Jazz" is probably the dumbest team name in sports when it comes to it making sense. But when you fully lean into the absurdity of it, it works despite the fact that it shouldnt. Which is why the Jazz were so great at design in the 90s because the 90s NBA embraced absurd designs. Now everyone is trying to be sleek/refined and it doesnt work nearly as well. And now we have Utah going back to it's roots a bit, but they want to make sense and "embrace Utah" but that's stupid IMO. So while the new jersey is an improvement over the hot garbage yellow design, it still lacks the personality of the 90's which is what set Utah apart.
 
Someone here about 10-15 years ago made their own jerseys using Photoshop or something. They were better than anything we’ve had or seen.
 
My biggest gripe with the old mountain jerseys and these new ones is the font.

Having worked in the film/entertainment industry in LA for 7 years, I personally know at least 30 people who could design and execute something better.

I dig the purple, though. Glad it's fully back. Navy is the most boring color in sports.

Never thought about it but you are right. The mountains and Jazz is such a random pairing. Almost has more aura because its so goofy.
 
To be honest, I like the old Nuggets logo with the mountains behind the skyline better than our mountains. And these new jerseys look fine in a presentation, but aren’t really going to pop on the court.

I don't think I've ever seen the mountain logo by itself, it always has the word Utah with it. Then, even if it was by itself there are a bunch of brands with mountain logos, so it could easily get confused and just isn't very unique.

The note is just much better all around. More iconic for those that know the NBA, more original, more simple.

You know what was really original and simple? The initial highlighter yellow rebrand.
