While Jazz players only have three variations of uniforms to wear during the season, what the team sports off the floor allows each person the opportunity to display their own individuality and style. And though Utah is one of the youngest teams in the NBA, many of the players dress well beyond their years.

Featured in The Salt Lake Tribune’s Utah Jazz season preview wearing a three-piece suit alongside co-captain Deron Williams, the duo could have shot an ad campaign for JM Clothing in New York City. Owner Jared Margolis makes suits for each player. “Everybody uses him,” said Boozer, who also lists former Knicks guard Allan Houston as another client of JM. Boozer is quick to point out that in the time he has been in the NBA his style has changed. “I came in the league as a 20-year-old in the (throwback) jersey and baggy pants era,” said the Jazz forward. “But as I’ve gotten older, I’ve dressed up more. I’ve matured, I wanted to take (the game) as a business approach. Not that basketball is work but the approach to it is work-like so I’m going to dress like a professional.”

Often seen in a suit entering EnergySolutions Arena or when the Jazz hit the road, Mehmet Okur uses a tailor from New York. “I’ve been working with him for five years,” said Okur. “He does a lot of clothing for different NBA players.” Okur likes the suits so much that he continues to add to his collection each season. “I have about 25 suits and I try to get a few more every year.”

Well remembered for the light blue suit he wore on draft day, Brewer unintentionally color coordinated with the team that selected him. Brewer uses a tailor based in Los Angeles named Darrell Jones. “I probably have around 25 suits from him,” says the second-year guard. “I like different colors, I have a lot of outrageous suits. But I still like to mix it up with something light.”
