Now a perennial playoff team and championship contender, Clipper Nation continues to forge its own distinct identity.

The 2021-22 Los Angeles Clippers Nike NBA City Edition Uniform celebrates the team’s rich past and even brighter future.

The City Edition uniform has a pacific blue base color, a choice inspired by retro looks from the team’s past incarnations as the Buffalo Braves and San Diego Clippers.
That vibe continues with the Braves “B” belt buckle — also a throwback to the Buffalo era
The jersey numbers and neck, arm and short tape are a tribute to the 1984 uniform design, marking the team’s first season in Los Angeles.
The anthem includes a series of maritime signal flags that spell out “Clipper Nation”— a thank you to the fans who have stuck with the team through thick and thin.
