While it would have been fun to see the Jazz with several different, unique design choices, it’s easy to see why the franchise went for some kind of uniformity, but unfortunately this one is just so… nothing. The grey stripe under the arm is yet another odd design choice, because it takes away from one of the redeeming qualities of the jersey which is the bright colouring, so all around, this one is yet another miss for the 2022/23 season, and one that not many fans will likely be lining up to buy.
What makes these jersey’s even more disappointing is when fans on Twitter are posting custom designs that incorporate the state of Utah, Salt Lake City and the history of the Jazz franchise, and while it’s understandable that the franchise doesn’t want to look to social media to deal with their design choices, it certainly makes the uniform’s we’ve got a lot more underwhelming.
The bright yellow of the uniform with the black ‘Jazz’ lettering works slightly better as a combination, but it’s very easy to see that there is such a clear divide between these two, and the two that seemingly had a little bit of thought and care put into them. The one saving grace of this uniform is that the bright colours will work well opposing other teams with bright uniforms (Suns, Lakers, Heat and potentially others with the ‘City’ edition jersey’s), but overall, this is unfortunately as plain and simple as it gets.
