The WNBA announced the release of Nike Rebel Edition uniforms for six teams Thursday. Similar to the NBA’s City Edition uniform concept, the Rebel Editions are designed to tell stories related to the franchise’s history and impact on women’s basketball.
The initiative started ahead of the 2021 season, when Nike partnered with the league as a way to bring stories from franchise “cities and communities to life through the muse of female archetypes in storytelling and film,” according to a company news release.
Notable rookies who just entered the WNBA after Monday’s draft — including Cameron Brink, Kamilla Cardoso and Angel Reese — will wear the association’s new Rebel edition uniforms in their rookie seasons.
The teams wearing the Rebel Edition uniforms will be the Chicago Sky, Las Vegas Aces, Connecticut Sun, Los Angeles Sparks, Seattle Storm and Phoenix Mercury.
