Looks like the Jazz will do away with the awful yellow jerseys next season. Next season is already a success. Rejoice!

These are dope but the two on the left will not be released until the 25-26 season.

The black mountain jerseys are awesome.

I liked last year's black jersey with yellow numbers and the white ones with the black jazz note and a little trim.

I don't like the purple ones with the mountains (this year or last year).

Unpopular opinion. I never loved those jerseys. IMO nostalgia is one of the very few reasons those are popular. To me the mountains just... don't fit. What do mountains have to do with Jazz? It's one huge hodge-podge of unrelated symbols. It betrays an identity crisis. To me the purple jerseys with the note and Jazz on the front continue being the best and most iconic jerseys of this franchise.

I can see those mountain jerseys or the red-yellow gradient jerseys being part of the rotation but more of like... the city or statement edition of the jerseys. Just my 2 cent.

The mountains have to do with the city, not Jazz, just as the name Jazz itself doesn't have much to do with the city but with New Orleans where the franchise was once situated. So the Utah Jazz was always a hodge-podge of unrelated symbols. To me it looks like ever since the team relocated to Utah, all jersey designs other than the note maybe, were always aiming towards the connection to the local surroundings of the state like the mountains or the arches (the red-yellow gradient jerseys designed after the arches national park). Would it kill the designers to design some jerseys more related to Jazz? Possibly. But I wouldn't mind seeing what they'd look like.

Personally, I like the purple jerseys. And the new black jersey with both the mountains and a big jazz logo look pretty cool, I must say.

I would agree, I was probably one of the biggest critics on last years jerseys. I would give them props this year. I like the mountain integration and color scheme. They even have a Jazz note. Well done Jazz marketing, big improvement from last years puke fest.

The recent rebranding jerseys were some of the worst, if not the worst ever in the NBA, IMHO. These new editions, especially the gradient black are worthy of getting behind. I wish they would've kept the Black based red-yellow gradient jerseys, I thought those had possibilities with either the Jazz note or the mountains. These 4 are all a big improvement over the last few years.

These are a huge upgrade from the church ball/rec center highlighter yellow and overly simplistic jerseys of the last iteration. I do personally prefer the purple/gold/green jerseys, but I could live with these long term.
