PHOENIX — The Phoenix Suns today unveiled their new Orange Statement Edition uniform that features a bright orange jersey with the iconic sunburst logo on the front along with orange shorts. White lettering and traditional Suns’ Purple trim appear throughout the uniform. The all-orange uniforms will be worn every Friday during the 2019-20 regular season (with the exception of Dec. 27 at Golden State).
Inspired by the team’s affectionate nickname for the home of the Suns, “Planet Orange,” the new Orange Statement Edition pays homage to the innovative “Seven Seconds or Less” era which featured the first Suns team to wear orange uniforms. With an eye towards the future, the new threads are designed to evoke a modern style and are the first uniform in franchise history to feature no wordmark on the front of the jersey.

The new jerseys will be available for purchase on Oct. 20th, and fans can visit Suns.com for more information and to sign up for updates.
In honor of the new Statement Edition uniform, the Suns will celebrate “Orange Friday” during every Friday night game throughout the 2019-20 NBA season. In addition to the team sporting the new orange uniforms on the hardwood, the Suns are encouraging fans to wear their favorite orange gear on Fridays in an effort to galvanize and unify basketball fans across the Valley.
During each of the Suns’ eight Friday home games, Orange Fridays will come to life through a number of fan-friendly in-arena activations accentuated by the team wearing the Orange Statement Edition uniforms.
