NBA, Suns Fans React to New Uniforms
Earlier this morning, the Phoenix Suns unveiled new Icon and Association uniforms as the 2023-24 season slowly draws closer.
"The uniform sets are a modernization of the classic sunburst uniform of the early ’90s paired with design elements of the previous Icon and Association Edition uniforms introduced in 2017," said the team's official press release.
Phoenix Suns SG Devin Booker shows off the new uniforms.
“The sunburst is an iconic design that is one of the most popular among Suns fans; it represents some of the most defining moments in our team’s history,” said Phoenix Suns Chief Executive Officer Josh Bartelstein.
“These new uniforms seamlessly blend the nostalgia of the past with the excitement of the future as we begin the next great era of Suns basketball.”
Before we get into NBA twitter, it's safe to say NFL twitter was a fan of the new looks:
Feedback on Suns twitter seems to be about 50/50:
"Designed by Centercourt Studios, the in-house creative department of the Phoenix Suns, and in partnership with Nike, the uniforms were developed with Suns fans in mind. The team surveyed fans on previous uniforms, with the rising sunburst design ranking highest among fan feedback. The new Icon and Association Edition uniforms capture the spirit of the popular ’90s sunburst uniforms while embracing a fresh, contemporary aesthetic as the franchise sets its sights on new horizons and the pursuit of its first championship," said the press release.
