Hopefully gray. I'm guessing black may be gone as well. It never should have been a primary color anyway, only an accent. I'm thinking are primary colors will be purple, orange and white (like the good old days). Sounds like we'll be finding out more in the very near future.

I think Espo saw before us too.


Let's not forget, he loved our previous uniforms and really talked them up before they were revealed.

Those dates in the article seem wrong unless the early 90s teams wore throwbacks often...

Of course these came on right around that time...

Nah, the dates are right. That was our first uniform in the NBA. (68-73)

Image

From there the uniform changed a bit to the Western font (73-92) with very minute changes to the font size up until the end of the 1991-1992 season.

That Walter Davis pic (8) is awesome. It was probably against one of the best teams of all time..Magic and company. Alvan Adams SI cover cool too.

Love the sunburst...love it. But that western font and the setting sun on the side of the shorts, slight edge for me personally

What's great about both of them is that they're distinctly ours. That's what I hate about all these simpler jersey designs of the last several years. When strangers come to the game and see two NBA teams, I prefer them to be distinguished by something more than the name of the city and the colors. I think there is a lot of creative potential in the sunburst and I think there's also some to be gleaned from the Western lettering.

It helps that the Suns, historically, have generally employed a fast, offense-first, philosophy. Like super stars shooting across the sky. Brilliant.

I'm more excited for the uniforms tbh. Can't wait to ditch the crap we're rockin now. Also, slightly worried at the boring black and white logo at the end, if the Suns go black and white, I might have to find a roof and jump off it.

I honestly thought they were waiting for Kyrie trade to announce the jerseys at the same time. I think the Suns got tired of waiting. Lol

Have a feeling we all will be disappointed with the jerseys, as always.

I just hope they don't suck. I really love the ones we have now, idk why we are even changing. I have liked most of what Nike has been doing, I think the Cavs, bulls, wizards and pacers jerseys all look good.

I really love the ones we have now too. I'm really skeptical of them redoing them already. Weren't they named one of the best ever uniforms from any sport recently?
