I’m glad everybody hates them! I don’t like the full jersey but I like the shorts and like the jersey top. I’ll probably buy the shorts if that’s what has the “DMV” on it.
Oh okay, boundary stones make way more sense. Thought it was a chode monument. Still a terrible jersey though, what’s with the rusting copper look? None of major monuments, including obviously the boundary stones, are copper.

Some thoughts:
* Narrated by Vernon Davis. Pretty cool.
* I was confused as to why they’re honoring the Boundary Stones, but when they used the phrasing of “Monumental stones” towards the end of the video, I got it. Ted loves his brand cohesion.
* Seeing the entire uniform together… I don’t actually hate these. Maybe it’s just the lighting and post-processing effects, but the gray is actually kind of slick with the accents.
* Kuz is wearing black compression pants to complete the look. This should be the standard way to wear the uniform.
TIL DC has boundary stones lol. Except on Georgia Ave in silver spring which would be the one I I actually drive near.
I actually kinda like the color scheme for an alt. It’s more “wizardy”
The stripe on the jersey doesn’t look as bad when matched up with the shorts but it still is trash if you want to wear the jersey on its own so I still hate it
they look a lot better on an actual person. hopefully they look good with the court.
[Jerseys available tomorrow folks!](https://www.nba.com/wizards/news/wizards-unveil-2023-24-nba-city-edition-uniform) GET EXCITED lol
>Fans will be able to purchase the Boundary Stone jersey at shop.monumentalnetwork.com and at the Capital One Arena Team Store starting on Nov. 2. In addition, fans can also stock up on all their City Edition merchandise needs with new Boundary Stone-inspired hoodies, t-shirts, and hats.
Honestly i don’t hate the kit. it’s probably among the better of this year’s city editions (low bar I know). White Cherry Blossoms would obviously have been a slam dunk though
After seeing it on a player (especially with the sleeves) it doesn’t look that bad. I do like the attempt of trying something new aside from the basic ass red, white, and blue.
Still not my favorite jerseys but the shorts might get got
On the one hand, boundary stones? Especially when a lot of people will just think it’s the Washington monument.
On the other hand as someone who loves basketball and obscure geography facts let’s go!
They’re really growing on me, especially as a DC geography nerd
I don’t like it, but I don’t dislike it either
I’d like it a lot more if not for the red stripe down the middle. Too many clashing colors
It’s not my favorite design, but it is my least favorite.
