Why Soccer Teams Should Think About Copying The Idea of Nike's NBA City Jerseys - All 30 NBA 2020-21 City Edition Jerseys Released

On Thursday, we reported that NBA clubs have brought the designs of the new 2020-2021 City Edition Uniforms to their stadium courts. We liked the designs of many of the 2020-2021 NBA City Edition uniforms - in this article, we take a look at all the Nike 2020-2021 City Edition jerseys.

City Edition jerseys were introduced in 2017 when Nike became the NBA's supplier

The City Edition jerseys are a relatively new phenomenon in the NBA. They were introduced when Nike became the league's supplier beginning with the 2017-18 season. The 2020-21 NBA City uniforms are being worn as a fourth uniform option for each club.

Each of the NBA City edition 2020-2021 jersey features a unique design that takes into account the history of a club, its city / region or other things related to the franchise.

In example, Boston Celtics' jersey is designed to resemble the championship banners that hang above the court. The mint / gold Charlotte jersey pays pays tribute to the fact that Charlotte was the home of the first U.S. Branch Mint and the Carolina Gold Rush in the early 19th century.

Advantages Of Nike 2020-2021 NBA City Edition Kits Compared To Usual NBA Jerseys

There are various reasons why Nike and the NBA introduced the City Edition jerseys, and the main aspect is certainly money. However, there are also several different advantages of these kits, and some also make sense for football teams.

NBA teams do not experiment as much as soccer teams with their "regular" jerseys

Pros Of City Edition Jerseys

  • Can be designed freely
  • Allows NBA Teams to have more jersey variability (NBA teams must have a white home / "alternative / away" uniform)
  • Teams do not experiment as much with their regular shirts

We think that the main advantage of these City Edition / special jerseys for football (soccer) teams would be that they won't have to experiment as much with their "regular" home, away and third jerseys but can play around freely without annoying fans.

In fact, football teams and brands already started to release more special-edition jerseys, but most just not on the same regular base as NBA clubs with the City Edition uniforms.

Do you like the Nike NBA City Edition Uniforms for the 2020-21 season? Do you think football clubs should release such special jerseys as well instead of changing their traditional colors for their kits? Comment below, and find out more about the 2020-2021 City Edition jerseys on Chris Creamer's Sports Logos page.

Dorking Wanderers 26-27 Home & Away Kits Released

English National League South side Dorking Wanderers have officially revealed their new home and away kits for the 2026-2027 season.

The new 26-27 home shirt introduces a classic and timeless design, stripping things back to a traditional aesthetic. It features bold red and white vertical stripes that draw inspiration from historic European football heritage. To complete the clean and authentic on-pitch look, the home jersey is perfectly paired with deep blue shorts and traditional white socks.

Following the launch of the primary strip, Dorking Wanderers also introduced their new 26-27 away kit, which delivers a much sharper and modern edge. This secondary jersey is defined by striking black and orange stripes, creating a strong contrast between dark and vibrant tones.

Notably, the club has thoughtfully replaced the betting sponsor with health and wellbeing partner Nuffield Health for all junior kits, while also actively reducing the price of youth shirts by £6 down to £39 to help younger fans afford their colors.

Which of these two striped Dorking Wanderers designs do you prefer? Let us know in the comments below.

Special Goiás 2026 'Romaria' Kit Released

Brazilian side Goiás EC and technical sponsor Diadora have officially launched a special edition "Romaria" kit for the 2026 season. This unique jersey is designed to honor the deep-rooted faith and cultural traditions of the club's supporters, known as the Emerald Nation.

Tying heavily into the local religious pilgrimages that take place in the state of Goiás, the release operates under the fitting motto, "Faith is not explained. It is carried," successfully blending regional heritage with modern football apparel.

The design of the new Goiás 2026 Romaria shirt is anchored by an off-white base that is heavily detailed with an intricate, tonal graphic pattern. This all-over print features ornate filigree and religious iconography directly inspired by the Divino Pai Eterno (Divine Eternal Father), a central figure in the state's famous annual pilgrimage. To contrast the subtle background artwork, Diadora has applied its logo and the classic circular 'G' club crest in a sharp, dark green on the chest, while subtle gold piping accents the shoulder lines.

The most striking colorful details of the kit are reserved for the sleeve cuffs, which feature vibrant, tricolor bands of blue, green, and yellow. Upon closer inspection, these colored stripes are inscribed with repeating "Divino Pai Eterno" text, further cementing the jersey's homage to the region's spiritual traditions.

What are your thoughts on this intricately detailed Diadora and Goiás Romaria kit? Let us know in the comments below.
