[Schilly]

So the picture the Blazers teased is black and white and if you look close there is no silver just red that has been washed out converting to black and white.

Silver lines between the red and the white.

Red uniform coming soon and looks like Grey on the far right.

 

[Scalma]

Looks fine

 

[Scalma]

Biggest improvement for me are the numbers on the back. Way cleaner.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

It's great not a big change and I am fine with that

They just changed the lettering and TBH I'm not a fan. I'm glad they kept "Portland" on the black ones though. Still waiting to see if our two alternates are better.

It's funny how they fucked up their own promotional material lol. The Black ones say Portland on the front.

The Z in blazers looks fucking terrible.

 

[dviss1]

Meh.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

The Z in blazers looks fucking terrible.

Weirdly skinny compared to the other letters, and especially the diagonal in the "A".

Why is good design so hard?

"The Best is Yet to Come"

Translation: yes, we know these ones are shit.

Plus there looks to be extra space between the A and Z... it looks fucking horrible, but i'm not suprised.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Are the others being shared soon?

 

[Natebishop3]

Meh.

My sentiments exactly.

The road uniform looks evenly spaced and is fine. Something's wrong with our home uniform. "Blazers" is slightly taller and the letters seem a bit thinner. Lack of space between the name and number on the front compared to the road jersey.

I like when the league used to allow teams to use different manufacturers. That was back when there was a lot of variety.

I was standing next to BonesJones when they unveiled the new jerseys. Overheard some people talking, they were liking Bone's RipCityTwo jersey more than the Blazer jerseys. Then we went to see if he could get in the 3pt shooting contest and the at the signup booth absolutely LOVED the RC2 jersey, was asking Bones where he got it.

“I think fans, by and large for the most part, wanted us to move away from italics,” said Hankins. “It seemed to place us in a certain creative timeline that we were no longer in. That was the one that was really loud and clear.”

As for the red, black and grey sash, the team strongly considered removing it from the new uniforms all together, but once again, fan feedback greatly informed the decision to keep the stripes. The width of the sash has been narrowed to match with the stripes on the side of the shorts, but it’s still there.

The new Nike “Association” and “Icon” editions will be available at retail starting at the end of September and will be significantly less expensive than the previous adidas authentic jerseys.

I would have been surprised to see the sash removed. Significantly less expensive? That's odd to hear.

I guess that means we aren't trading away either of them this offseason.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So Lillard for Kyrie?

 

[Mediocre Man]

I like the uniforms. Would have changed some things, but as for recent changes....broadcast crew, arena name change, etc....these are fine

 

[blue9]

Boring typeface is boring.
Kinda weird that the banding on the arm holes only goes 3/4 around.
Otherwise, they're fine. Certainly nowhere close to being the best, but also not the worst.

 

[Darkwebs]

Interesting that we don't have a sponsor yet on our uniforms. Or are they waiting to reveal that later? I bet there will be one by the start of the season.
