| DETROIT – Nov. 14, 2024 – The Detroit Pistons today officially unveiled their 2024-25 Nike NBA City Edition uniforms, paying homage to the “Bad Boys” era of Pistons basketball that generated back-to-back NBA Championship teams in 1989 and 1990. A special “Detroit Bad Boys” retail collection, including the 2024-25 Nike NBA City Edition jersey and shorts, is available now at Pistons313shop.com. Just as the “Bad Boys” won back-to-back NBA Championships in 1989 and 1990, the Detroit Pistons City Edition jerseys are going back-to-back. This year’s uniforms are colored in “bone” and play on the skull and crossbones theme of the famous “Bad Boys” inspired logo. The Pistons script word mark is featured across the chest with vintage-inspired orange jersey numbers. An orange stripe down the side of the uniform is accented with a repeating 89-90 monochromatic number design. In a nod to the legendary Head Coach Chuck Daly, who led the “Bad Boys” to five straight Eastern Conference Finals appearances, three straight NBA Finals appearances and back-to-back NBA titles, the jersey jock tag features a special “back-2-back” emblem with Daly’s signature. The Detroit Pistons City Edition uniforms will be worn 13 total times during the 2024-25 season, including six times at home. Each home game will coincide with “City Edition Nights,” tipping off on Nov. 18 and will feature the Pistons’ 2024-25 Nike City Edition Uniforms and recall moments from the 1990 back-to-back NBA Champions. The Pistons will also play those contests on a “Bad Boys” designed court. The court boasts “Detroit” in classic script font at center court as well as the modernized crackled logos on opposite ends of the playing surface. Skulls and crossbones with the jersey numbers of each player on the 1989 and 1990 championship rosters as well as Coach Daly are represented down the sidelines while the names of those who have been Detroit Pistons season-ticket holders for 20 or more years are etched inside the block Pistons logos on the baselines. In conjunction with the Pistons City Edition jerseys, the team launched a robust retail collection available at Pistons313shop.com and at The Team Store at Little Caesars Arena. The collection includes two new “Detroit Bad Boys” t-shirts and a crewneck celebrating the iconic “Bad Boys” look. Additional newly created city edition apparel items include shirts, hats, crewnecks and hoodies. -pistons.com- |
