It's official, the Suns actually
will have black uniforms this season:

Interestingly, the shorts design appears to be very different from the standard uniform design.

'Los Suns'. Hhahaha. Come on, put 'Los Soles' so at least it makes sense, regardless of the design (I like the pattern in the back).

Those are gross, shirseys are awful, and the back looks like a curtain.

Los Suns is so clownish. Can we get black jerseys that just say "Suns"?

How would Los Soles make sense? The team's name is SUNS. Proper names don't change from country to country or language to language.

I don't know, maybe because it is a latin night? You change 'the' but not 'suns'. Absurd, in my opinion.

Black is a slimming color.

I'm not hispanic, nor do I speak Spanish, so I don't have an opinion on the marketing towards this demographic. It must be working, since they keep doing it. As far as the uniform, I like the black with the water mark, but it seems like I've seen those shorts in JC Penny's in the past years. Like Inf, I would like the uniform without the LOS on it.(just reminds me of the Los Angeles Lakers, and I can't stand that team)

But the name of the organization is "
Suns". That's the name. It does not change in different languages.
It's the same way someone named Steve doesn't suddenly become Esteban when he enters Mexico. McDonalds is called McDonalds in China. Coca Cola is Coca Cola in Russia. Need I go on?
I do understand your point, but regardless, a proper name doesn't change from language to language.

White
Purple

It doesn't make sense though.

I don't get the name either.
The Suns organization has been in Phoenix AZ since day 1. The name has always been "Phoenix Suns".
I'm not sure why the Suns are pretending to have Latin roots.

They're not. It's just a promotion that many teams adopt. I guess mostly teams with big latin fanbases?
Adding "Los" before the team's name is just as stupid as changing the Ns for Ñs.

If it was Latin they were after, it would just be Suns. There are no articles in Latin.

So if you don't like adding "Los" and don't think it correct to change Suns to Soles, how would you make the unis latin for latin night?
