The Timberwolves have revealed their newest ‘Cities Edition’ uniform that draws its inspiration from the two cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, the diverse people and neighborhoods that makes the Twin Cities thrive, and the river that divides yet unites its residents. The uniform comes in with a sky blue colorwary inspired by the blue waters that run throughout the cities. The left side of the uniform represents the Mississippi River with the outline beginning at the collar of the uniform and flowing down all the way to the bottom of the shorts. Across the chest of the jersey reads MSP standing for the two cities, Minneapolis and St. Paul. On the front of the waistband of the shorts is a logo that features the last city of the east, the first city of the west, connected by the Mississippi River.
“The two cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul are full of diverse people, neighborhoods, and communities that make up the DNA of the Twin Cities. The MSP City Edition uniform celebrates them, what they do to make our Cities thrive, and why the Timberwolves are proud to call the Twin Cities our home.” -Timberwolves CEO Ethan Casson.

The Milwaukee Bucks have revealed their new ‘City Edition’ uniform for the upcoming season.

The Nuggets have revealed their newest version of their ‘City Edition’ uniforms. The new uniform is a celebration of the people and neighborhoods that make Denver unique. The design was inspired by the team’s original Rainbow Skyline uniform that was worn from the 1981-1993. The team took the same design that we saw on last season’s ‘City Edition’ uniform and used a black based uniform this season to have the rainbow colors pop even more. We will see the team rock these unis seven times this season.
The new ‘City Edition’ uniform for the Sixers pays homage to a staple of the Philadelphia community, the Liberty Bell. The uniform is a parchment colorway that features a blue “Philadelphia” cursive script wordmark across the chest. On the sides of the uniform we see the crack in the Liberty Bell displayed predominately. Located on the front hem of the jersey the phrase “Pass and Stow,” is embroidered to mimic that of the inscription on the front of the Liberty Bell, the two names are derived from Philadelphia foundry workers, John Pass and John Stow, who recast the original bell in 1753.
“It’s important to our organization to pay tribute to Philadelphia’s rich history, culture and landmarks as frequently and authentically as we can. In partnership with StubHub, we designed the City Edition jersey to celebrate the Liberty Bell, a Philadelphia icon that transcends time and brings to life a powerful symbol that unites us all. We look forward to enjoying many special moments with our fans wearing these uniforms throughout the remainder of the season.” -76ers President Chris Heck

On the upper right chest of each jersey is a traditional Astronaut ID tag, giving another tie into the space program. The shorts feature an American flag on the front of the belt line, along with Houston spelled vertically to resemble a rocket launch. To finish off the look the jersey and shorts will have special side panels that were inspired by the Gemini Program that helped NASA prepare for the Apollo moon landings.
