The Warriors have finally released the jerseys they’ll be wearing for this year’s Christmas Day matchup between LeBron James and his Los Angeles Lakers, and boy are they pretty.
Smilar to the previous version of ‘The Town’ jerseys the Warriors have worn in the past, the new threads swap the previous grey and black color scheme for a brighter gold and blue look.

The Warriors will play in the ‘Town Gold’ jerseys for eight select games this year. The new fit is part of the the Nike Earned Edition Program. Each team that made the playoffs last year will be rewarded with an extra jersey, and it’s only fitting that Nike decided to reward the back-to-back champs with a golden jersey.
Recently the NBA has learned the lesson that international club soccer teams learned long ago – if you keep producing new and fresh jerseys, fans will keep shelling out for the newest editions … and we’re here for it.
The Warriors’ Nike Earned Edition Town Gold jersey and additional Nike Earned Edition Town Gold merchandise will be available for purchase beginning Wednesday, December 19 online at the Warriors Team Store starting at 7:00am PT, and in-person at all Warriors Team Store locations beginning at 10:00am PT.
