Two New York legends come together as KAWS designs the Brooklyn Nets City Edition Jerseys for the 2023-2024 season. KAWS moved to New York City in the 1990’s during the height of the city’s graffiti and street art era, an influence that has remained in integral in his work, and is proudly presented on this fleet of jerseys.

As a proud Brooklyn resident, I was thrilled when the Nets asked me to create a new uniform design. The history, community, and passion of this borough create an energy that inspires my studio practice, the players, and the fans. My design aims to capture the vibrancy that we experience daily when navigating Brooklyn.”
KAWS
KAWS’ signature touch is all over these jerseys as the artist incorporates pop-art colors inspired by his 10-part artwork “TENSION.” The “NETS” lettering expands across the chest and is reimagined with KAWS’ one-of-a-kind font. Of course, the jerseys wouldn’t be complete without KAWS’ iconic “XX” identifier, which is seen above the waistband of the shorts. To finish, KAWS’ signature is woven above the jock tag.
The KAWS x Brooklyn Nets 2023-2024 City Edition Collection will be available to purchase this upcoming Fall online at netsstore.com and at Barclays Center. Take a look at the uniform below and follow @NiceKicks on Twitter.
