SAN ANTONIO — The NBA has revealed the San Antonio Spurs' new City Edition jerseys, which reflect the franchise's stories, history and heritage, as well as honoring the unique bond between the Spurs and the San Antonio community.
“The Nike NBA City Edition platform features robust, hyperlocal stories from each of our NBA teams, creating a tapestry of the history of our game, its teams and the cities that support them,” said Christopher Arena, Head of On-Court and Brand Partnerships at the NBA in a release. “It’s fitting that our 2023-24 Nike NBA City Edition uniforms will make their on-court debut during our inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament, as teams build upon the moments that define their franchises through their quest for the NBA Cup.”
The new City Edition jerseys specifically pay tribute to San Antonio's 1968 World's Fair and its impact on the city.
The Tower of the Americas is proudly displayed as a primary element of the new jerseys.
There is also a nod to the Spurs' Fiesta colors surrounding the words "Viva Spurs" on the jock tag.
Also, the NBA revealed the team's new warmups, shooting shirts (both short and long-sleeve) and baseball caps. All honor the 1968World's Fair.
And if that was not enough, the NBA showed off the team's new towels.
To round out the new look for the team, the NBA shared an image of the team's new court. The court will be displayed when the team wears the new uniform.
The new Spurs uniforms are available for sale today at NBAStore.com, Nike.com, and select retailers globally. Home teams will wear the uniforms throughout the NBA In-Season Tournament, which tips off Friday, Nov. 3.
"The game’s past, present and future is deeply embedded in our innovation, which includes how we help all people experience the game in new ways," says Sonja Henning, North America Vice President, League Partnerships, NIKE, Inc. in a release. "The Nike NBA City Edition uniform continues to be an incredible canvas to tell the stories of these basketball communities. In working with teams across the NBA, we’re able to collectively bring the best elements of each franchise to the uniforms, and we're able to express that identity during new moments, like the league's In-Season Tournament."
The Spurs will wear the new jerseys on Nov. 10 against Minnesota.
