We’ve begged and begged. We’ve shouted from the rooftops, plotted underground. From the highest mountains to the deepest valleys, Denver Nuggets fans have asked for one thing above all else: bring back the rainbow skylines. Finally, after a quarter century, the Nuggets (and Nike) have listened.
The new skyline jersey isn’t an exact remake of the classic rainbow jersey of the 1980’s but rather a sort of evolution of the design. The original rainbow skyline was made of multi-colored blocks which represented the “vibrancy and growth” of the city of Denver in that decade. That theme works even better some 36 years later as Denver has grown even more vibrant, consistently ranking as one of the best cities in America.
