The Los Angeles Lakers unveiled their third uniform alternative this week -- the black Hollywood Nights collection, which will be worn during select games this upcoming season.
ans have been suggesting black uniforms for years, and apparently, the Lakers have been working to make it a reality for years... and now, they're here. The new jerseys join the team's traditional purple and gold and the whites, which were introduced in 2002-03.
"The Lakers have a long history and philosophy of listening to fans, and as a public trust are in the business of serving fan interest, from colors of uniforms up to the ultimate goal of winning championships," the team wrote on Lakers.com. "The purple and gold uniforms will forever be the staple for the Lakers, with the black ones adding what the Lakers hope to be a cool alternative."
The Hollywood Nights theme, in part, acknowledges celebrities like Jack Nicholson that have long supported the team, but also serves as a nod to the people that work behind the scenes to make up one of L.A.'s biggest industries.
Additionally, the Lakers "Hollywood Nights" collection, which includes jerseys, hats and accessories, are currently on pre-order with items shipping November 15th. To order, visit LakersStore.com.
