Well that's just like... your opinion, man

Lol hey I'll buy what you're selling because these suck and last year's sucked. And as Kings fans, we know what sucks when we see it.

I just wish they would stop using sactown

I’ll go down swinging debating that the red uni’s are still far better than these new ones or the puke blues or the golds because they at least were an official team color at one point in time.

Anything not falling in line with official team name/mascot or colors goes straight to the end of the line. Do not pass go. Do not collect $200.

That is all. ;)

What a bunch of unimaginative cut and paste nonsense. I mean, I do like it slightly more than the Warriors finally putting Oakland on their jersey the year after they pick up and leave but that's not saying much. I'd like to see more enthusiasm about making use of the black, purple, silver color scheme in these alternate jerseys. The baby blue is a fun gimmick once in awhile but more and more it seems like that's the only move our staff has got so we're determined to make use of it every year. I still find it jarring to see the Kings wearing blue or red as a primary color. I like that black is at least the dominant color here but there's nothing going on with this design except a lazy font choice and color combo which is a lame attempt to cash in on the Miami Heat Vice jersey colorway. Also there must be some way to reference the history of the city besides meaningless PR crafted talking points that are apropos of nothing.

When I first saw the red ones I thought "Clippers knock-off" and hated them. for a while. Now I like them, and so this year I'm just going to skip the "getting used to it" phase and embrace them out of the gate. For what it's worth I loved the powder blue edition a couple years ago too.

We complained about these when they came out but compared to some of the other city jerseys out there these are as timeless a look as the classic Hawks jerseys

I think we have the SAC purple jerseys still. Just don't think we've actually used them yet this season (started off in the black alternates and are wearing white on this road trip).

At this point, it does feel to me like purple is the "alternate" (and since all the jerseys have names like "City Edition" anyhow, there's room for former traditional/alternate jerseys to slip identities). It makes me kind of sad, because I really do like the purple.

Why does it always have to say “sactown”? Does anyone who lives here even call it that?

Is "Macaframalama" too long to put on the front of a Jersey?

I can't wait to celebrate our first playoff appearance in 15 years by purchasing an authentic 2021/2022 city edition Buddy Hield jersey. Assuming he's on our team for the entire season.
