In honour of the NBA 75th anniversary, Nike is set to honour three of the original and many influential teams of the organisation’s history with a range of classic uniforms. The Boston Celtics, new York Knicks and the golden state Warriors will each receive historic replicas of some of their many well-known kits.
The Boston Celtics strip arrives with the classic white & green design with a large Celtics logo displayed across the chest. The shorts utilise a similar colour-blocked design with the addition of two contrasting three-leaf clovers. This uniform replicates that of which the team wore all the way back in 1946.

The Knicks uniform also looks to 1946 for inspiration. A large “New York” font is displayed across the chest accentuated by tones of navy and orange found around the kit. The shorts utilise a trendy striped design on both the outer leg and the bottom.

The Warriors uniforms feature a navy base strengthened by bright tones of yellow and red. These uniforms are modelled on the same ones the team wore for the 1961-62 season, the season famed for Wilt Chamberlain scoring over 100+ points in a single game.
