The black court was the worst ever. Anything other than that is fine.

I'd be fine with that if they went with the original lettering at the baselines that was a little classier.

And they should just go back to the damn Western Font jerseys. Those were tight.

Amen to that.

Too bad sports teams are pumping out three new jerseys every year to rake in the cash. Except some of them. Why can't we be them?

I actually really liked the jerseys we had just 2 years ago, all they needed to do was swap out all the black for purple and they would have been incredible. Oh, and get rid of that stupid butt stripe.

But yes, the black court we had around the same time was hideous.

This thing... so damn ugly. Looked way worse in person, super depressing. Like a bad halloween decoration.

I love the black jerseys. They are my favorite. Court wise? Meh....I don't pay much attention to the court design. As long as they don't bring back the short shorts I am good.

And I wish they go back to the vibrant orange and purple. The muted versions they use now are blah. Don’t see the Lakers muting their purple or gold. Don’t see the bulls moving to a brick red. Don’t see the Celtics moving to a pine green.

This is 100% Sarver. He wanted to distance his tenure as far from the Colangelos as possible. That's why it took 16 years or however long it's been to actually go back to an all purple jersey.

God I hate Sarver. I grew up the Suns were the purple gang from Phoenix. Purple was the Suns that whole planet Orange thing made me sick

I don't get it. It's not like teams haven't gone back to originals before. Remember those AWFUL teal Pistons jerseys? Detroit realized they were hideous and went back to their originals. Why can't we do the same? Those jerseys above are simple, with a dash of western style.

That is a good point. We and the Texas teams are the Southwest/Old West.

I agree with you up to your final point. I can't help it, I prefer short shorts. Although it's just before "my time", I even danced to a Royal Teens tune that asked that all important question "who wears short shorts". I'm sure a few of the old dudes here even know the answer. :)

"We wear short shorts." (The girls, of course.) :)

Uniforms in the 90’s were bizarre.

I miss these uniforms (not the shortness). My favorite jerseys are the pre 1992 home PHX jerseys and both the inaugural home and away Charlotte pin stripe jerseys.

I actually liked the black court design in person but not on TV. I think the more dark colors the better, either black or purple should be the dominate color, preferably purple. I do think the jersey's are improving. Last year's were better than they've been in a while. The purple road jersey's were particularly nice.

I like what we have now, I just think the set we had right before this had real potential if they'd just refined them a little. Like swapping out the black trim and lettering for orange or purple, getting rid of that weird butt strip... and probably do something different with that graphic on the side of the shorts that looked like wings made of razor blades.

Our current home jerseys are trash. The road purple are decent but the throwbacks are fresh. Should go back to 80’s or 90’s full time.
