Pretty Ballin' : The Best New Uniform in the NBA

This year, a handful of teams in the NBA changed their look. In my opinion, one team stood out way ahead of the others with their new design: The Golden State Warriors. Not only did they make the vastest improvement to their team's logo, but the end result was by far the most impressive of all the teams trying to reinvent their on-court appearance. 


THE NEW



The Warriors changed from their rustic colors to a much more vibrant and complementary blue & yellow scheme. The new uniforms also don a simpler, yet more significant insignia. After all, the Golden Gate Bridge is the most recognizable image of the California bay area, not...a ninja.



THE OLD


This "shadow warrior" makes me think of a team struggling to reach the playoffs. The new jersey, however, is much bolder in its simplicity. It is crisp and clean, with clear lettering and a stark contrast between its only two colors. The team's new shorts are pretty slick as well. Like the jerseys, they incorporate the image of the Golden Gate Bridge into the stripe. 



The Golden State Warriors look prouder and more confident in their new uniforms, but most importantly, they just look better.
