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

ONE LOVE said:
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.

I agree that they are typically not durable enough (my burks jersey looks pretty worn out) though my gobert jersey seems to be made different than the others and looks brand new still.

I also agree that you really can't tell the difference unless you really look.

The authentic ones are definitely better quality and look a little nicer though. Not sure if they are worth the price difference but I went with the authentic on my burks, favors, and gobert ones and I like them much better than the Millsap replica

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

True, I'd certainly compare the two and see if the lower price validates the lower quality.

Looks like the Conrad Burry approximation was right on the color bands, but they don't have the weird black siding.

Just not a fan. Jazz do not have red. At all. I have no desire to be reminded of the Rockets. /vomit

Looking at the other teams they're a lot more inspiring than our one if I'm completely honest.

I thought the Kings, Cleveland, Bucks, Hawks, Magic, etc, were pretty cool. They all had either their city's identity or harked back to the past somehow.

Just not quite sure what ours' inspirations were except for the fact that the designer liked red/orange gradient.

I like ours that is coming out and am very glad we are not doing the ugly old uniforms we had in the past. Some/most of those are the ugliest jerseys ever in the NBA. Especially the mountain Jerseys.

From those pictured in the link. I like ours, the Bucks, Portlands, Atlanta and the Kings. The rest are boring or ugly to me.

It seems pretty likely that it is inspired by Southern Utah and our national parks. The red rock stuff down there is some of the most well known and advertised things about Utah.
