The Portland Trail Blazers have long been feted, especially by their fans, for having the best uniforms in the NBA. For the first 46 years of the franchise, they changed at a glacial pace. Jerseys from the 1970’s and 1980’s were clearly identifiable, distinct from those of the 1990’s and 2000’s. You could tell what era a uniform came from with a glance.
Modern marketing has changed the landscape over the past 4-5 years. Each NBA franchise now sports multiple uniforms, several distinct to each season. Cycling through so quickly, changes in pattern and color are inevitable.
