Sacramento Kings new uniforms

Kings

The Kings are likely headed for the Lottery in 2009, but that didn’t stop the team from unveiling their new uniforms today under the slogan, “Dress for Success.” Not much different from the previous version; the goal was to infuse more black into the look, “While still retaining the Kings identity,” according to the Kings website. The side panels are also different, and instead of having the front say “KINGS” at home and “SACRAMENTO” on the road, it’s flip-flopped (which goes against tradition). What do you think of Sacto’s new look?

  2. ToAn says:

    i guess they changed the uniforms so they can get some media attention now ’cause once the season starts it’s gonna be quiet…liked the old ones better

  3. that's whats up says:

  4. A-Slam says:

    hey im really diggin’ those white ones, they sort of remind me of the lakers’ sunday whites

  5. Jay says:

    Definitely not feelin’ the Kings Purple lol…

  6. Meica says:

    I’m really tired of teams ‘unveiling their new uniforms’ that look almost identical to the previous uniforms only more compromised, less stylized, and, well, lame. These are hideously ugly and I’d be embarrassed to wear such a uniform. They tried to go with more black and wound up with more of that terrible purple.

    That’s what’s up said it best when he said: “fit for a queen.”

  7. JDig89 says:

    how the hell is that more black? these jerseys are TERRIBLE. i literally was sad when i saw them. i feel bad for Kmart and co. and my poor fellow south jersey native, jason thompson having to don such a hideous ensemble. Shame on you Maloofs.

  8. Blue says:

    that’s the most nancy-boy purple i’ve ever seen in my life…AND THAT’S COMING FROM A MINNESOTA VIKINGS FAN!!! i hope it’s just the lighting!!!

  9. JDig89 says:

  11. fallinup says:

  12. dapro says:

    Nothing groundbreaking , looks aight

    What happened to changing the entire look of the jersey?

  13. Taj says:

    None of the new Uni’s look good that these new teams are unvieling! They all look like they belong in the WNBA

  14. ERIC says:

    OMG Thunder uni’s BLOW

  15. Daily boy says:

    Looks to me like a WNBA Jersey

  16. Daily boy says:

    BTW, has anyone seen the OKC Jersey’s Yet?

  17. bsteezy3 says:

    I used to dig the purple unis…They have now gotten tired, and yes, girlish. Those hideous gold jerseys they had were awful too. A few of you have already said it, so I won’t elaborate, but it’s time to bring back some retros or something. Maybe they need a whole new design/color scheme…

  18. MoxWestCoastRep says:

    Those Thunder jerseys look like the Flint Michigan Tropics unis…

  19. miamiVIS3 says:

    is everyone getting new unis?

  20. Big Sneezy says:

    The numbers look a little thin. I want to highlight them and press the “Bold” button for some reason.

  21. cesar says:

    thunder unis look like knicks unis..

  22. D-NICE says:

    Tha new raps jerseys look SICK!

  23. Meica says:

    You know, if they wanted to bring out the black in their uniforms, why wouldn’t they make A BLACK UNIFORM?!!

  24. David Brandon says:

    man, these are kinda weak…..and i’m a kings fan. lol i can be real tho still. and Meica said it, why not just make a black uni?? i’m still waiting for the kings to take it back to the red white an blue jerseys….one day……….. lol

  25. Pete Casey says:

    Feeling the white uni. The text and number on the purple uni is out of proportion.

  26. rodnets says:

    the white one is EXACTLY THE SAME as the Dallas white one. How on earth no one saw this. Hey Maloofs get a marketing exec ASAP.

  27. solomon says:

    gimme a new new york jersey, will y’all???

    oh, who cares anyways…

  28. Coop says:

    They are, like nearly all of these new ’sheen’ uniforms, disgusting. Bring back the matt mesh days of the 80s and 90s. These things are gaudy and hideous. Get rid please haha

  29. heavy d says:

    While the purple is a bit light and can be bashed, it’s the numbers that really don’t do it for me.

  30. KT says:

    These joints are ugly. They should go back to the ones they had when White Chocolate was around.

  31. Ernesto says:

    What’s a ‘thunder’?
