SLAM ONLINE | Thunder Reveal New Alternate Uniforms

Quote:

According to the team’s official Twitter account, the Thunder will be rocking these alternate jerseys on Friday night against the Pistons. At least the new threads with the vertical lettering are, well… minimalist.

totally feeling it, thought they would go orange but i like this idea better.

It's a lot different than their normal jerseys...which is a good thing...

thought · 11-08-2012, 04:09 PM

maybe it's the OCD in me but I don't like how the stripes don't line up

aside from that, i think it looks awesome.

vertical stripes don't work for kd. he shouldn't wear anything that enhances skinniness....

I really really hate this one. It has no relation to their logo, colors, or primary uniforms... Zero recognizability. It doesn't look modern, neither is it a throwback I guess. It looks like it belongs to the Kings or something.

I don't understand this.

For example, Dirk Nowitzki has played for how long now? 15 years? The dude played in more than 10 different jerseys, all with the Mavs. Seriously, go look it up. I'm not a fan of this trend. Just find a winning formula and stick to it, like the Lakers or Celtics. But this, this looks like simple moneygrabbing...

Not a huge fan of their alternate, looks kinda ugly and a knockoff of vintage jerseys imo. They really need to change up their home court design

Windex · 11-08-2012, 07:51 PM

looks like a simplistic Jay Z design

There are people online that design better uniforms than some teams put out. don't know why teams continue to put out these bad designs.

Not bad.

Looks like the OKC community isn't all that fond of the new uniforms either...
I love the explanation from team representatives:

Quote:

The vertical 'O-K-C' on the shorts embraces the organic and loyal support of our fans who chant those letters throughout home games.

What a bunch o' bull...

they shouldve taken the old Seattle Supersonics jerseys, and instead of the Green/yellow/white, use the OKC colours.... and instead of 'sonics' put 'thunder'.
now that wouldve been badass, and throwback at the same time.

those look ok

Luckedout · 11-09-2012, 02:23 PM

i like them. but they lack colour and are really dark which isnt very OKC thunder of them. maybe if it was a Mavs jersey.. or if it somehow had a silver thunderbolt on them like on the back even. id appreciate them more. idk, im just a girl that focuses a little too much on jersey designs lol.
