The Chicago White Sox have revealed brand-new “City Edition” jerseys for the 2025 season. The new uniforms pay tribute to none other than another history-making Chicago sports franchise- the NBA’s Chicago Bulls. 

This one-of-one jersey incorporates both the NBA and MLB’s (the second-best one, go Cubs) teams out of Chicago and allows for both to showcase their dynamic personalities of the teams in one jersey. 

“One of the thoughts that was pushed right away was that no one has ever done a collaboration between a Major League Baseball team and an NBA team. In a market like Chicago with a history of both teams, how great would it be to be able to collaborate with our partners in the Bulls, along with Nike and Fanatics, to do something that is unique and very different.” - Brooks Boyer, White Sox Chief Revenue and Marketing Officer

The Jersey includes the classic black and red color scheme and font work of the Bulls while keeping the new age White Sox logo patched in as well. Placed at the bottom is a “Crossover Tag” combining both aspects of the MLB and NBA together. An ultimate collaboration here and in rare air, as many of the ideas like these never seem to come to fruition and are often fan made. With more independent artists availible than ever, more ideas should be accepted and put together to mesh some creatives together for jerseys like this.

A great concept and something I’d love to see done more often when it comes to sports franchises.
