Nike unveils new basketball uniforms

[MikeyIs4Dcats]

ugh!

what the hell!

 

[KeithTalent]

They look like dresses.

 

[James Bond]

Reminds me of the episode of Seinfeld where George gets the Yankees new uniforms that shrink.

 

[Juno]

dude, make it for women's league only. men's league do not apply.

 

[Safeway]

That is gross ...

 

[txrandom]

They are too tight and what's up with the long sleeves.

 

[bobdelt]

So, is this the rap invasion continuing?

 

[KnickNut3]

Spandex shorts and Kriss Kross ghetto fabulous huge shorts. Yeah, that look's gonna work.

 

[DanTMWTMP]

umm...

well, the top part is ok, while the baggy shorts are just stupid.

what's wrong w/ the current uniforms? sheesh.

 

[paulney]

I was going to have a few comments on the new uniforms, but it turns out you have to go into rehab if you use the word "fa....", so I ? so kind of an impasse, can't really talk about uniforms.

What does it look like when a white guy wears it?

LoL

This is just a ploy to drum up sales (same reason NBA teams wear different "alternate" jerseys every game now).

 

[oogabooga]

wow, the tops are fine i guess, but making the pants -even- baggier? ER?

 

[vi edit]

Too tight where I don't want it to be, and too baggy where I don't want it to be.

Horray for form over function!

 

[xanis]

Looks like crap... wow.

 

[SmoochyTX]

Nice culottes. I wonder if they'll wear the ballet slippers that are becoming popular again or go with heels.

 

[conehead433]

Nike should get some input from someone who actually plays basketball. I can't speak for other players, but I personally can't shoot worth a crap wearing any sort of tight fitting shirt. So the top definitely doesn't work for me. The bottoms look like they may just be a bit too baggy, but they also shouldn't droop down below the knees. Dresses indeed.

 

[chuckywang]

Anybody see Syracuse wear them today in the Big East tournament? I only saw it on ESPN360 at work, so the quality of the video that I saw was not good (plus I had a POS CRT monitor).

 

[mugs]

Skin tight up top and super baggy bottoms? They look like hula dancers.

 

[Connoisseur]

Well in defense of the tops: I'm not entirely sure what material they're made of, but if they're anything like the workout shirts that nike sells, they're probably pretty functional. They help bead away sweat and heat. As far as the bottoms, those are just plain stupid.

Imagine seeing Shack...or big country in a top like that
