New 08-09 Logos / Jerseys [2 new jerseys!]

i think love was really wearing the older jersey underneath. i remember reading somewhere that they said there would be no more use of the trees on the entire jersey. so basically, its just imitating the hawks jersey but with a bad taste in design

I think Kevin Love was really wearing the older jersey underneath as well.
If he wasn't, then the collar is fucked up big time.

Kings's looks really promising, the side panel ought to draw a lot of attention.
Orlando's ? I cant judge it yet just by looking at the collar.

Kings jersey looks really nice with the new black wordmark, but that Wolves jersey is disastrous. Wordmark is so small, the collar looks stupid...

Orlando must look really good, it's supposed to look better than Sactown.

Now this is just my personal opinion, but I rank Orlando as the best, then Sacramento, then Minnesota.

I like the colors for the new kings' jersey..but for me..it's a little bit plain..

for the magic..yeah..looks promising..the wordmark that GH33 posted here comes immediately in my mind..

twolves.. :cry:

Kings look great, however Timberwolves look like shit. Wow.

The Timberwolves' new design just looks awkward. As already pointed out, it's kind of like he's wearing the old jersey underneath but I don't think that's the case. Should've left it alone.

The tree is in the armpit area.

That part looks fine but the collar is just such an awkward design.

those twolves jersey feels like a jersey that a wnba team would wear.. :lol:

I don't know, even WNBA jerseys seem to have cleaner designs than that.

It's not the collar that bugs me so much, it's the small wordmark (probably due to "Minnesota" being such a long word), as ginobilli has pointed out. Ditto with the jersey numbers. The typeface used just has too much child element to it.

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 12:02 am

That too, but the collar is what stands out to me.

by **-Young Buck-** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 11:42 am

Who cares about the neck line. Look at the numbers and "Timberwolves" on the front. It looks like some kid in JHS made it in sewing class. Its too small.

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 6:45 pm

I see that too, I just happen to think the collar design looks a bit weird.

Fashion Review from Ball Don't Lie. Seems most people are in agreement, though I actually liked the last Timberwolves' jersey.

Sacramento jerseys are awesome while the T-Wolves, thanks to Kevin Love sporting it, suck. I bet the designer is gay.

by **Dan's Brain** on Fri Aug 01, 2008 8:55 pm

A gay guy would probably get it right.

As far as I know, most NBA teams put the name of the franchise on the home jersey and the name of the city on the away jersey (for obvious reasons).

The Timberwolves are finally joining this fashion by putting "Minesota" on their away jersey (yes, I agree the wordmark is a bit small). On the other hand, the Kings decided to put "Kings" instead of "Sacramento" on their away jersey, which I find a bit strange.

I wonder when we are going to see the Magic's and Hornets' jerseys.

Bluesky · by **Andrew** on Sat Aug 02, 2008 12:12 am

Most, but not all. They kind of abandoned that approach in the 90s and some teams still just have the team name on both the primary home and away jerseys. Now that a lot of teams have gone back to having the city name on the away jersey, I guess the Kings were just looking to be different.

I can't see the pictures. Can anybody help?

the nba has cracked down and made sites take down the pics...i didnt save em on the HD either, so that kind of sux.

within the next couple of weeks, the official release will happen tho, so i guess we'll have to wait.

by **Jing** on Sat Aug 02, 2008 3:21 am

There is some guy who's been requesting jerseys, he saved the images I think and uploaded in the tread somewhere.

Compared to the old ones, the new Wolves jerseys looks even worse! :shake:
