NEW YORK —
WNBA uniforms are being upgraded this year due to the alliance\'s new partnership with Nike.
Most of last year, the players were working with clothing companies to design a uniform that focused on the unique sport of women\'s basketball players.
Seattle Storm guard Sue Bird told The Associated Press: \"From this point of view, they are very suitable, and it will feel very good for athletes in the league, too . \".
\"I think all the players met with their Nike reps at some point.
They received feedback that we liked and didn\'t like.
One of the things we really emphasize is the neck line, without our sports bra performance.
In terms of sports bra, this is the best one.
\"The league and Nike tested the jerseys to make sure there was no wardrobe glitch, just as LeBron James\'s jersey ripped his back.
\"This fabric is closed.
So it\'s stronger, \"said Keri Lenker, senior manager of identity, equipment and equipment in the NBA.
We did make some changes.
Nike also from alpha-sizing —
Think small, medium, big
More options are available.
\"Last spring, we went out and were able to measure it according to the size of the athletes and the team could place orders based on that,\" Lenker said . \".
\"This gives players more choices.
\"There will now be two versions of the new uniform, icons and declarations.
There will be more games later this season.
A uniform feature is a small silver patch below the back neck that shows the number of champions a team has won. \"It\'s great.
\"The WNBA is moving towards an era where the team has history and the team is developing legacy,\" Bird said . \".
\"There is no better way than how many champions we won.
\"Fans can start buying jerseys and other new outfits in the WNBA online store from May 13.
