Too bright. They look like very tall bananas. I liked the powder blue, who thought yellow would work? These are just a number of the possible responses fans could have after seeing the new Denver Nuggets alternative jerseys. The jerseys are bright yellow with the Denver skyline across the middle and the word “Nuggets” printed just below. No other team wears yellow quite the way the Nuggets have decided to do in 18 of their games this season, by wearing their new alternative jerseys. In addition to the bright yellow color, the Nuggets added a logo on the collar that is a “D” done in powder blue, the color of their regular home jerseys.
The uniforms remind us of those worn by the Golden State Warriors from the mid 1970’s to the mid 1980’s.
Recently, Jay-Z unveiled the Brooklyn Nets simple, yet stylish black and white jerseys while on stage at the Barclays arena. Those jerseys completely contrast to the Nuggets uniforms in every way.
