I don't like how big the lettering is on the front for the home jersey. I think SUNS is way too big, crowds the entire front.

Why don't they have any sort of sun, or basketball, or sunstripes / sunburst, or anything? It just says "SUNS" in capital letters, and a number. It's quite generic IMO.

We have like 2 more and a retro still coming.
And we know the retro will be the 1968-69 uniform for the 50th anniversary.

I agree. I wanted the sunburst back. Not just a small one at the waist and half of one on shorts.

That seems to be the trend. I would have loved an updated sun on the shorts - something like they wore in the 70's.

All things said, I would rather have then go to conservative than have a monstrosity like the Hawks wear!

Apparently so.

I like them. I'm glad they simplified things. I like the lack of a predominantly orange jersey. I like the loss of gray as an accent color. I'm overall happy.

No ads so far (other than Nike).

Afterburners.

I kind of like them, but I have a hard time caring too much about this stuff.

Not too bad. Reminds me of the Wizards jerseys.

I like the revamped Pelicans jerseys too. Happy to see New Orleans in bigger font.

Apparently they loved our old ones, I thought they were fine, but nothing special.

Agreed. Also dislike the borders in the sides and back. Don't like the shorts either. Purple ones are way better than the home ones, although to me that's not saying much.

Very underwhelming. Big downgrade. Can't see myself spending on these kits (have just ordered Booker's black alternate and this new stuff doesn't make me regret at all).

I chuckled that the mannequin body wearing the unis is super jacked. Aspirational mannequin man is here!

Moreover do the shorts have to be so goddamn tight on the mannequin.

But they're back to mainly purple & orange, which makes me happy.
The only thing that bothers me is the beveling. It makes it look cartoonish. Everything else is exactly what you want in a Suns jersey--Purple, Orange, and White.

I think Bledsoe is much more jacked than those mannequins.

The 1 over the sunburst looks like an exclamation point.

Appropriate. ;)
