The Golden State Warriors are among eight NBA franchises set to debut new “Specter” jerseys beginning in the 2026-27 season. Designed by Nike, the Warriors’ version features a predominantly black colorway with blue striping along the right side and yellow accents on the numerals. The initiative includes the Boston Celtics, New York Knicks, Philadelphia 76ers, Detroit Pistons, Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Lakers, and Sacramento Kings as part of a special series honoring the league’s oldest and most storied franchises.
The uniform rollout has generated considerable debate among basketball enthusiasts. Public reaction to the Specter jerseys has skewed predominantly negative, though Nike and the NBA designed the collection to celebrate basketball heritage. The exact date when Golden State will first wear the new jerseys in regular-season competition remains unannounced.
The Warriors will shift focus to their upcoming preseason schedule, which commences October 4 against the Los Angeles Clippers in Hawaii. The team will participate in a six-game exhibition slate before transitioning to regular season play with their new Specter uniforms available for select games throughout the season.
