Ahead of the NBA season opener on Oct. 20, Nike has just released “Standard Issue,” its latest pro basketball collection.
The collaboration is set to introduce a “new look for the league, reimagining how team identity and basketball culture are expressed across players, teams and fans,” according to a statement. The lineup features NBA’s full 30-team roster, with each team represented on a variety of gear. To further fan connection, players will wear pieces of the collection throughout the season, including during warm-ups and team travel days. Nike notes this is the first time fans can purchase the exact gear they see on their favorite pro athletes.
