The highly anticipated kickoff to the 2024 NBA season is officially underway, and basketball enthusiasts across the globe are gearing up to support their favorite teams with unwavering enthusiasm. As the season unfolds, fans are ready to rep their home squad, sporting the officially licensed NBA City Edition jerseys of their beloved cities. For fans looking to acquire these stylish and authentic jerseys, Fanatics stands as the go-to destination.
The jerseys are supposed to represent the history and culture of the city in which the teams play. They have gained popularity for typically being flashy and having vibrant jerseys, and the uniqueness of the designs and distinguishability of the looks have made them big sellers historically. However, not all City jerseys hit the same. Whatever team you back, you can find all of them here.
Note: We opted to showcase the customizable version, but you can find all the different models at Fanatics.
Atlanta Hawks Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
A white jersey with a soft powder blue accent with a hint of cream. The Hawks jerseys aren’t bad, they just aren’t anything to write home about. The white jerseys have a blue stripe running through the middle of them, which does look good, but they are just missing something to take them to the next level.
Boston Celtics Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Black
Blacked-out base with some electric-looking green and forest green. The Celtics rarely take risks with their jerseys, so we applaud them for doing that this season. However, the brighter-than-usual/neon green just doesn’t work great on a Celtics jersey. It’s definitely got a loud vibe, just not as on brand with the teams rich history.
Brooklyn Nets Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Gray
Black with varying shades of gray isn’t that bad, but the varying-colored letters outlining “Brooklyn” kind of ruin it. The Nets’ newest jerseys are ugly, and there is no way around it. The city name looks like children’s letter blocks, and the rest of the jerseys don’t inspire any more sense of maturity. The base of the jerseys is a mix and match of greys and blacks. It not only leaves a lot to be desired, but it is somewhat hard to look at.
Charlotte Hornets Jordan Brand Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Mint
There is mint color, and then there is Charlotte Mint, and they definitely doubled down here. When it comes to color schemes, court designs, and uniform aesthetics, the Hornets are always near the top. They once again hit the mark with their 2024-25 City jerseys. The teal jerseys pop, and varying colored dotted stripes that run up the uniform bring great contrast.
Chicago Bulls Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
Almost solid white with pops of cream and tanish bronze. The Bulls, predominantly known for their red jerseys, have gotten a lot of props when they switch things up. Notably, everyone loves the black jerseys from the late ’90s, and it was even iconic when the team wore green. Chicago took another chance with something new here, and it worked. The base white jerseys are complemented by cream and tan accents which, give the jerseys a smooth vibe.
Cleveland Cavaliers Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Light Blue
Completely abandoning your traditional colors in a City jersey is always risky, but the Cavaliers jerseys look great. The typically wine red, gold, and navy blue team went with a light blue main color for their jerseys this year, and it really stands out. However, the main color is far from the best part of the jersey. Additionally, the multi-layered team nameplate that says “The Land” gives a three-dimensional feel, and the graffiti side stripe is one of the coolest jersey features in recent memory. Then again, for some reason, powder blue always looks good on a basketball jersey.
Dallas Mavericks Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
White with the same silver-ish, tan-ish, bronze looking color. There aren’t any flashy colors on the Mavericks City jerseys, but their 2024 City uniforms are still one of the best in the league. The color scheme is white and silver, which gives the jerseys a crisp look. There is also a floral pattern on the sides of the jersey that adds even more to the aesthetic of the jerseys.
Denver Nuggets Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
The Nuggets skyline colors/theme always allows them to have cool jerseys, and they again hit the spot with their 2024-25 City uniforms. While the base white isn’t as flashy as Denver has gone before, the heat signature color scheme on both the sides and within the “5280” lettering looks awesome. The 5,280 represents Denver being a mile above sea level. Then there’s the colors on the side looking like a topographic map and bright, fun colors.
Detroit Pistons Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
With there being a lot of white jerseys in this collection of City jerseys, we appreciate that the Pistons went with more of an off-white/cream. The off-kilter Pistons name plate is also a pretty-looking feature. Not sure on the orange accents, but overall, a solid jersey.
Golden State Warriors Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Navy
The Warriors jerseys are reminiscent of the “We Believe” Warriors teams that are so nostalgic for so many fans. The dark blue and brown jerseys remind fans of a time before the Warriors organization was a dynasty, but what was an iconic period in franchise history nonetheless.
Houston Rockets Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
Kind of similar to last year. White base color with H-Town in red. H-town is more than emphasized on the Rockets jerseys. While the big and bold lettering does look good, there isn’t much more to these uniforms.
Indiana Pacers Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
Similar to last years, this year they opted for the white base color. The Pacers ran it back with the paint-splatter jerseys, but they went with white as the base color this go around. The jerseys had potential, and we respect their uniqueness, but they are simply on the uglier side.
LA Clippers Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Light Blue
A very unique looking blue color, but it works. Being one of only two base blue 2024-25 City jerseys probably helps the Clippers’ uniforms pop more than they normally would. Still, the light blue always works on Clippers jerseys.
Los Angeles Lakers Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Purple
Black faded into a purple bottom is a very interesting choice, in our opinion. But you can’t even tell that there are two colors there. Instead, these city jerseys look boring, and fans will be more excited when they are wearing their traditional gold jerseys.
Memphis Grizzlies Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Red
Theres bold and then there is this jersey. The Grizzlies also went with colors completely different than their norm. Despite having a bunch of cool jerseys in the last few years, the Grizzlies busted out a red and white color scheme, and it works. I can easily envision Ja Morant zooming down the court in these jerseys that include their city name, Memphis, in big cursive letters. The funky disco-esque 70s looking letters and numbers work, too.
Miami Heat Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Red
The fall off of Miami Heat jerseys has been drastic. From the blue and pink “Vice City” jerseys we once got, fans are now stuck with a plain red uniform that emphasizes the Heat’s culture. Not much else to say here.
Milwaukee Bucks Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Royal
The Bucks have been going with blue/cream for their City Jerseys for a while now, and it still feels a little weird. It doesn’t help that their 2024-25 City jerseys are boring and bland.
Minnesota Timberwolves Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
The Timberwolves went with a blue and white water-vibes jersey last year to celebrate the land of 10,000 lakes. The jersey was polarizing last year, and that is again the case this year. The feel for these jerseys is the same but with an inverse of the colors.
New Orleans Pelicans Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Purple
The Pelicans have taken some big jersey (and court) risks in recent seasons. Notably, their in-season tournament court last season was one of the most polarizing. That court paid homage to the nightlife of the city of New Orleans, as do their City jerseys this year. These jerseys are less extreme, but they have tons of cool features. The main feature worth discussing is the series of bones that run up the jersey. The look is subtle, but it is unlike anything we’ve seen on a jersey before and is a great way to highlight some interesting parts about New Orleans, including their iconic above-ground cemeteries. Let’s not forget the purple base and green accent for some reason screams DC’s ‘Joker.’
New York Knicks Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
The Knicks used the same jersey design as last year, except with white being the main color and blue and orange being the secondary colors, rather than blue being the main color with orange and black serving as the accent colors. The 3D New York logo is as cool as it was last year, though. It does give off a little retro vibe with the subtle pin stripes.
Oklahoma City Thunder Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Black
Kind of similar to last year’s version. The black base of the Thunder’s City jerseys makes the blue, orange, and yellow accents pop. Other than that, these jerseys are pretty average.
Orlando Magic Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Silver
Pinstripes and the “A” in “Magic” being replaced with a star are staples for Orlando uniforms. These jerseys take inspiration from Magic jerseys of old, but they aren’t quite as memorable due to the white base. Still, an above average version.
Philadelphia 76ers Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – White
White base with a retro throwback lettering for these 76ers uniforms are cool and simply work. The lettering catches the eye, but not as much as the multi-colored stripe on the side of the jersey.
Phoenix Suns Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Purple
The Suns stuck with the orange and purple valley theme for their 2024-25 City jerseys. The big orange star in the front of the jersey is a fun touch, but it is the Aztec-like print on the side that most stands out. “The Valley” is also stylized in a western type font, which we dig.
Portland Trail Blazers Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Black
Very similar to last year’s jerseys. Subtle features are the best part of the Trail Blazers jerseys. The circle designs that come together to make square designs are a cool touch on these jerseys, but it will be next to impossible to even see that when players are actually playing. When it comes to actual distinguishable features on the jersey, Portland leaves a little to be desired.
Sacramento Kings Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Blue
Before the Kings were located in Sacramento and rocked the color purple, they played their home games in Kansas City and had a blue and red color scheme. The Kings 2024 City jerseys are simple, but they give a nod to the franchise’s history. The old-school feel didn’t break any barriers, but it does make for a solid jersey. If you love an Americana vibe, this will be right up your alley.
San Antonio Spurs Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Light Blue
Similar stylization as to last years jerseys, this years base color is definitely an upgrade and gives a nice nod to some fiesta inspired colors. For some reason this just looks like the background setting to a Wile E. Coyote scene. When The Coyote dons this one, it will draw comparisons for sure. Not bad overall.
Toronto Raptors Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Black
The old-school Raptors jerseys of the ’90s are among the best in NBA history. Everyone loves the dinosaur logo and the zigzag pinstripes. The 2024-25 City jerseys take inspiration from those, and it hits nearly as hard as the originals. Bonus points for the raptor rocking Vince Carter’s number doing his iconic dunk, too.
Utah Jazz Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Purple
This almost feels like one of those, “sure you can copy me, just change it up a bit,” moments. The 2024-25 City jerseys that the Jazz are using are cool, but they are less impressive than their City jerseys from last season. Even so, the purple, blue, and white color scheme of old and the mountain range on the jerseys still land Utah in the top 10 of these rankings. Historically, the Jazz have some of the best jerseys in league history, and these jerseys are similar to what made the team so iconic in the ’80s and ’90s.
Washington Wizards Nike Unisex 2024/25 Custom Swingman Jersey – City Edition – Powder Blue
For the most part, the Wizards’ City jerseys are bland, but they make the top 20 of this list for two reasons. Firstly, “The District” logo is sharp, and secondly, the paint-splattered look on the seams looks cool, although it likely won’t be noticeable unless you are really focused on the jerseys.
