adidas Celebrates Toronto with 2016 NBA All-Star Uniforms

Today adidas unveiled the uniforms and apparel collection for the 65th NBA All-Star Game in Toronto. The uniforms are designed with elements native to Canada and pay homage to Toronto’s NBA history, passionate basketball fans and cosmopolitan energy.

Uniforms
The red-and-white Western Conference and white-and-blue Eastern Conference uniforms feature a maple leaf overlay on the front of the jerseys as a tribute to the national symbol of Canada, while Toronto’s cityscape is featured across the back of the uniforms to represent the host city.

Clean, single-layered fonts are a nod to the NBA’s early days in Toronto, where the first NBA game was played on Nov. 1, 1946 between the Toronto Huskies and New York Knickerbockers.

A star patch that incorporates a combination maple leaf and NBA logo are displayed on the upper back of the uniforms while black-and-gold jock tags feature the Toronto Raptors’ alternate team colors and claw logo. The colors of the nations’ flags represented at NBA All-Star intersect in a grid detail featured on the jersey’s neck liner and the shorts’ draw strings.

Warm-Ups & Shooting Shirts
The NBA All-Stars will sport warm-ups that embrace Toronto’s winter fashion and style. Black and heather gray fleece jackets include star patches that acknowledge the number of NBA All-Star appearances for each player, while patches on the right zipper pocket call out the game’s top accolades including: Kia NBA Most Valuable Player, Kia NBA Rookie of the Year, NBA All-Star Game MVP and NBA Championships. The on-court warm-ups also include a performance fleece shooting shirt and tapered pant with white and gold trim.

NBA All-Star jerseys ($70 – $110) will be available on NBAStore.com in January in addition to a full range of NBA All-Star apparel including adult and youth T-shirts ($20 – $30), adult track jackets ($110 – $200) and headwear ($20 – $26). Select NBA All-Star merchandise will also be available internationally on NBAStore.eu and NBAStore.cn.
