I was bored and thinking about the Suns uniforms. They've had the current unis since 2000 and I figure they'll get a touch up around the ten year mark. I imagine Sarver will go with orange as the primary away jersey because it is the better seller. I took the Lakers uniform (because I like the cut) and modified it. Those who like flashy and busy probably won't like them because I prefer simple and traditional uniforms. Here is the "basic" mock-up I did with microsoft paint. What do you guys think?

I am digging the last one. The 1st one looks way too similar to Lakers alternate jersey.

I might just be old school but I don't like teams changing their logo/jersey every 3 years

I agree. But, y'know, in these time of 30-second sound bytes and short attention spans, marketing (which it what it's all about) has to keep up whether we want to see it or not.

The D'backs change in colors and some logo seems to have worked out OK.

Very cool! I like the last one! I cannot stand our away purple and grey unis. I like the purple and orange you drew up! If it were up to me we'd be wearing the orange road jerseys all the time!

It's strange to think that Basketball teams don't change their 'kit' every year. As a soccer fan my team gets a new kit pretty much every year (either home or away). The logo doesn't change very often though. I can't wait for the new kit to be released every July.

I wish theyd just go back to the original ones but make the shorts baggier. The western font on the chest, the sunburst on the shorts, they were great.

They should get in line with the rest of the professional teams in Phoenix and go with red.

There's no comparison. If Sarver brought these back full-time, he'd buy so much good faith from lifelong fans...

I think Suns' fans should push for these. They are very classy and unique.

That is what I love about the Lakers, Yankees, Steelers etc. They keep a consistent look decade after decade.

No doubt...they wore them a couple years back for a few games, they looked sick. A purple road version and orange home version of these uni's would be the best.

Id be for an orange alternate in the old style, but the Suns home unis have always been white, so Id want them to stay that way. Personally I know the orange is popular, but its a bit bright for me to look at 41 times a year :p

Speaking of the western font, Ive always wanted a purple fitted Suns hat w/ the old orange P in the western font w/ white trim, with a sunburst on the back that says Suns in it. That would be slick and simple, as is, most Suns hats are a bit too loud for my tastes.
