I expected much better from Nike, once again the same basic template, just different colors. I'm sure the corporate sponsors will be happy, they're front & center, without even the team name on the front of most...MEH

Chicago posted their actual 'icon' jersey on Twitter and it looks better than the pic. Still not impressed with every team having same template, but the fact Chicago is calling their jersey the 'icon' jersey leads me to believe each team might have at least 3 different unis

For Nike, this just doesn't look like they put much effort into it. Is it just me or does the angular design seem like its meant to create the illusion of a more feminine waist? Maybe its just me. These designs do not excite me. And I agree with a lot of the posters about the team name needing to be the most prominent feature on the front of the jersey. I realize its a revenue decision by the league but still...

I would imagine that was exactly the purpose.

Nike’s WNBA Uniforms Are Built Specifically For The Game’s Elite

http://www.wnba.com/news/nike-wnba-uniforms-statement-icon-editions-unveil/

Quote:
In line with the new basketball uniform naming convention announced by Nike and the NBA last year, the WNBA introduces an Icon Edition and Statement Edition silhouette.


For those unfamiliar, Icon are the road unis while Statement are the home.

I would point out that you can get virtually the same thing from the official online store for a max of $80: http://wnbastore.nba.com/Jerseys/pg/1/

Slight differences, but pretty damn close.

Those replica s always have the shoulders so wide. Makes it ugly IMO
