“When we initially sat down with adidas to discuss the 2008 kit, it was important to both of us that any change in kit color or design should be an evolution, not a revolution,” Wizards Executive Vice President Greg Cotton said. “Our fans embraced Wizards team merchandise like never before last season. In fact, we increased total jersey sales across all markets by over 700 percent last season, the largest increase in team history. This redesign builds on that success, and injects new life and enthusiasm into a powerful Wizards brand.”
The Wizards home kit will feature a cobalt blue background with dark indigo trim and pure yellow piping. Away jerseys will feature a white background with cobalt blue under-sleeve and dark indigo trim. Numbers will be white on the home kid and navy on the away kit.
“Kansas City” will appear in the traditional Wizards font in white on the home kit and in dark indigo on the away kit. The crest has been changed to what was formerly the secondary logo without the rainbow design. The crest is also slightly larger this season. The official game jersey will be 100 percent polyester and features adidas Clima 365 technology.
