Thoughts?
As a side note, i've always wondered why they are released so late?
Usually they cut it super close to the start of the season.
I know this year is a bit different with Jan start, however I would have thought it would be smarter to have had this merch available for sale at the 36ers games over the weekend.
Bit meh. Nothing particularly special about this lot. Like the fact that the Hawks stayed in black for their home jersey though.

At least Cats fans don't need to buy a new one. Exactly the same as last years.

36ers home jersey is pretty much the same? I do like the away ones though, big upgrade over last seasons
I thought kings home and away looked good. Most were good actually.

I like the red stripe addition to the 36ers home jerseys, I like the away jerseys significantly more than last time.
Disappointment: lots of white away singlets.
NZ are going full Miami (Heat) Vice

Uninspired and boring. Champion has made no real change to last year's jerseys, and the changes that are made are usually for the worse. If this was all it was going to come to maybe they should have just stuck with First Ever?
Hawks white is horrible
Hawks black looks same as last year

FE is basically gone though
Agreed, not much in the way of changes - I think 36ers look a bit better, NZ is interesting, pulled off pretty well IMO, Phoenix is decent.
Others, meh.

SEM looks better with added green, ADL away and NZL nice to see some mixing it up. Kings home jersey a bit bland/generic, looks like a training kit.
Seems like a mistake for United to keep their designs the same. Won't this potentially reduce merch sales this year as fans don't feel as inclined to replace their jerseys

On second look, NZ and Phoenix are clear upgrades. The rest, not so much. They're clean and tidy, and they look "okay" but they're uninspired. And yes, making no noticeable differences between Perth and Melbourne jerseys will hurt merch sales.

Adelaide's is in the "upgrade" column - I like the red stripes on the home although perhaps not a "clear upgrade" home jersey wise. Away is also an upgrade, more so than the home I guess.
Do agree that NZ and Phoenix are on point, 36ers i'm content, others very meh/not a fan.

I think they generally look ok, particularly without the primary sponsor patches above the team name (not sure if that will continue?)
The Kings one looks a little bland, and im not a fan of white away kits but I like most of the side panels.

Might not be a bad idea to get it signed too.... Giddey is going to the NBA.

I actually like that we're starting to get teams wearing the same thing multiple years in a row. That's how it should be.
Kings need them to pay the wage bill, lol, still behind Perth though.

Don't like that we have different typefaces on the home and away uni. That seems weird, but good enough otherwise.
