Sixers to go Retro for good

[Mexi]

Kate Price, Sixers’ Vice President of Business Operations, told yesterday to a group of season ticket holders in a fan forum that the franchise will be switching back to the old logo and the old 1982-83 uniforms (white/home, red/away) starting from next season.

i wish the lakers would go back to their 80's jersey's. those were AMAZING

a white version of these would be AMAZING as well.

I prefer these type of jersey's. The tank top ones over the v-neck ones.
I think only New Jersey, San Antonio and Boston wear them full-time. The Bucks too with their sick alternates

 

[Pugz]

Yea, the tanks beast.

Damn, this is sweet lol.

Kate Price, Sixers’ Vice President of Business Operations, told a group of season ticket holders yesterday, that the franchise will be switching back to the old logo and the old 1982-83 uniforms starting from next season. The announcement came while Price was holding an open question session in a Sixers' season ticket holder forum.

The Sixers have donned their 1982-83 white uniforms for select home games this season...but will go completely retro next. The move is a popular one amongst Sixers' faithful, who have campaigned and petitioned for the Sixers to ditch their current look for some time.

Say your goodbyes people...

Start shopping for your new Sixers' merchandise.

Mother F'rs. I own a couple shirts and a cap with the current Sixers' logo, that I bought at the arena this season. -AE

I just came across this story tonight and interestingly enough, I continued searching the topic...and there's other Sixers' officials out there claiming that this isn't true.

According to this story, the Sixers will be switching to their 1982-83 uni design next season. But I’ve seen next season’s Sixers jersey, and I can tell you that it’s not quite as simple as an ’82-’83 throwback. Sorry, can’t tell you more, but I just wanted to say that the story as stated on that page isn’t quite accurate.

I bet they will have some gay piping or pin striping or something.

Kinda un-called for but I guess its cool to rock the 80s gear

I'm glad to see a team realize that their old uniforms were way cooler. If only the Lakers and Magic did this. I bought a pair of throwback Magic shorts last year and I can't tell you how many times people have came up to me and asked where I got them.
