Cavs Release New ‘City Edition’ Uniform – First Time Team Will Wear Gray

The Cavs today released another uniform for this season, their fourth now as they continue play for 2017 and 2018. The uniform is called ‘City Edition‘ and according to their release will ‘complete their on-court look for the 2017-2018 season.’

Here’s the official release from the team about the uniform – gray in color.

The Cleveland Cavaliers have unveiled the City Edition uniform, the fourth uniform from the NBA Nike Collection, to complete their on-court look for the 2017-18 season. The new gray uniform features a design that is uniquely Cleveland and represents the spirit of a team, its fans, a city and region united to Defend The Land. It is the first time in franchise history that the team will wear the color gray on the court.

The City Edition uniform joins the Association (white), Icon (wine) and Statement (black) Editions as the final installment in a collection of four new Nike uniforms introduced for the 2017-18 season. As with the previously introduced uniforms — the City Edition features the Nike Swoosh and Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company’s Wingfoot – two global emblems reflecting success, drive and determination. Each uniform was designed by the Cavs in collaboration with Nike.

“There is a cool new vibe about Cleveland and with the design of the City Edition, we wanted to make a bold statement about who we are today – a united community that is proud of ‘The Land,’ protective of our place in the universe and committed to defending our home court together,” said Tracy Marek, Cavaliers CMO. “We couldn’t be more excited about introducing this new uniform concept to everyone who stands by Cleveland and the Cleveland Cavaliers.”

I think it’s a great look for the Cavs, and I’m going to scour my local Kohl’s to see if I can find some matching gear to wear the next time they’re sporting these uniforms. And don’t forget, thanks to their partnership with Groupon Coupons, you can save even more when shopping there!
