Nike as a company is dumb af nowadays. Cashgrabs are not bad for a company as long as it comes with creativity. For example: Nike would make a lot of money just by bringing back 90s iconic designs as City editions or Throwback jerseys. Sixers Black jersey from the Iverson era, Jazz's purple mountain jersey, Raptors purple jersey with the raptor or the 00's more stylized jerseys, Hornets Muggsy era jerseys, Warriors or Bucks 00's rebranding era, and many more. When they try to do a throwback they don't go all in and end up giving a shy version of what could otherwise be a great jersey that honours other NBA eras or even ABA era.

One thing you said made a lot of sense in regards to modern choices in design, and was a solid point. The 90s designs were a reflection of a shared cultural movement, which is honestly something kids don’t have today. Their influences these days are so spread out that these minimalist designs really are the best way to appeal to them. It sucks, but it’s true.

The upholding of the Pistons teal jerseys as this beloved throwback is so funny to me, as a '90s kid who grew up in Michigan. This overwhelming nostalgia and positivity was there when the team brought them back as a throwback a couple years ago, too. It's hard to convey how HATED those were by Pistons fans at the time, to the point where it's kind of swept under the rug how the horsehead was still the primary logo when they won the 2004 title (they were back to the red and blue color scheme by then, which made it more palatable, I suppose). And it wasn't just the Detroit jerseys getting hate. The '90s' obsession with teal and cartoonish animals was frequently bashed back in the day (not even just NBA...kids who watched the movies may have liked the Mighty Ducks jerseys, but hockey fans were less receptive). If KZbin were around then, there most definitely would have been videos about (then) modern jerseys being a disgrace.

I definitely didn't mean my comments to be universal...things like the NFL's Panthers and Jags, and the NHL's Sharks also went over decently well. But things like the Vancouver Grizzlies and the "demonic bison head" Buffalo Sabres '90s logos were other "cartoony animals and/or teal" logos that got tons of hate back in the day, and were frequently used as examples of why jersey/logo design was going downhill at the time (and both are now used as positive examples of all the "personality" jerseys used to have). I mean, if people like them, that's great. The switch-up is just funny to me.

I think the best way to bring them back to great uniforms is thru blending together properly. A throwback design with some modern tones to it. Example is Utah: bring back the 90’s look but make the color from the mountains up a purple gradient into black, make the font classic but modernize clean. This makes every part of the jersey pop out

My issue with a lot of the teams using minimalist designs are that several of them went to using retro based logos, but they made the colors dull along with simplifying the designs. The cavs coulda easily just went back with the original "wine and gold" design they used for Lebrons rookie year, which had FIRE navy alternates. Or back to the baby blue/black/orange. The nuggets are mixing throwback colors (royal blue, yellow) with the 00s colors (navy, red) while using the rainbow city design. The nets introduced alternates based on the Dr J jerseys but with the bland black and white color scheme instead of just going back to those NY Nets designs but using the NJ colorway (red, navy, gray). What was the point of the raptors just switching their colors to black and red? why get rid of the purple? Even the 6ers went back to a retro based jersey design/colorway. A lot of the teams would do well with just using a slightly modernized retro logo/design and not being scared of having 3-5 colors in the palette. Does anyone remember when the Heat had yellow alternates and instead of adding any other of the teams colors to it, they just made them yellow and black, which made them look like Pacers jerseys? Thats the dumb shit that annoys me. The 75th anniversary city jerseys were some of the best jerseys and I wish some of the teams would just do like the Suns and keep using the same jersey where the design was slightly altered for like 3 years. Most of the city jerseys are uninspired. I remember having a nike rewind jersey and that line used throwback uniforms with the modern colors. That would be way more interesting than what they're doing now. They also need to stop trying to get rid of the idea of the home/away jerseys. Its so dumb watching a home team wear their away jersey and the away team wearing their home. If it aint broke, dont fix it!

Very interesting video. I could answer your title without even seeing the video: From the perspective of an old fart, yes. Jerseys were so much more interesting in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s. They're cartoonish by the minimalist aesthetic of the 2020s, but I still prefer the 1990s Cavs jerseys to the 2010s ones. Also, wool was because (a) it's a winter sport that was first popular in Canada and cold Northeastern cities and (b) textiles needed to catch up. Synthetics weren't widespread in the first half of the last century. Edit #1 - Also, why is it that so many teams have some shade of blue? There are fewer greens, relatively few reds, and not enough of any other color.
