The championship trip or red, black and white were the best. Personally, would actually rank those as red, white then black. But those unis with the first two Dino jerseys (pinstripe whites and Carter purples) as alternates are all that are needed.

Just a jersey full of chevrons would be amazing.

I hope there's a teaser announcement after the lottery or around the draft. They need to blow it all up and get back to the roots.

No more red... Save that for a city jersey if you want to drive home that Toronto is in Canada.

They must be fully rebranding to purple if they keep doing this. Everybody wants it not sure why it's taking so long. They should have done it last season with the 30th anniversary but for whatever reason they didn't.

I think cuz the NBA mandates you to keep jerseys for at least 5 years (once you change them). Last season was the last year.

This upcoming season they can do a new rebrand with fresh jerseys

let's hope it happens

Oh interesting! Didn't think it made much sense to I best that much in a logo and court just for one season.

It would just be trolling at this point if they didn't change their jerseys next season. But I wouldn't expect replicas of previous jerseys. It likely will be its own thing.

I saw this cool variant on the Raptors jersey that I think they should take inspiration from

Image

While I'm not big on the gradient, I do like the outline of the Raptor in a light purple.

I did a photoshop of it, but added light blue accents as I think it works better with purple than red

Image

They can always do a third red variant, and keep the red Raptor for the home whites.

Don't want to start a rebrand in a year where you're not overly concerned about winning.

I think the front office is hoping next season is their next "we the north" moment.

Just using the Raptor head on its own would be weird as a primary logo.

If they want to fit in with modern times and don't want the entire body of the cartoonish raptor it probably makes the most sense. A lot of cool ones in the NFL too

Go back to the "we the north" era please.

These were just clean:

These are classic.

I'd rather they just leave the "We the North" era behind. This team needs its own identity. This is what makes me curious about the Raptor's recent twitter comments, as I had assumed those jerseys and court were just to honour Vince.
