The Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday unveiled a new Classic Edition uniform that will be worn during the 2023-24 season in celebration of the 35th Anniversary of the franchise’s inaugural 1988-89 season.

With a teal silhouette featuring multi-colored double pinstripes, the 2023-24 Hornets Classic Edition uniform echoes the second-generation Hornets uniforms that were used from 1997-2002.

“We’re pleased to introduce a new Classic Edition uniform to be worn as part of our celebration of the 35th Anniversary of the Charlotte Hornets inaugural season,” Hornets President & Vice Chairman Fred Whitfield said in a team news release. “Throughout our history, the Hornets have been recognized for fashionable uniform designs, and we know our fans will be excited to see the look that our team wore from 1997-2002 back on the court in Charlotte.”

The Hornets will wear the Classic Edition uniforms for eight home games this season, during which the evolution of the franchise from 1988 to the present and on into the future will be celebrated as part of the 35th Anniversary. The schedule of games and a special ticket package will be unveiled in early September.

The new Classic Edition uniform is expected to be available at the Hornets Fan Shop and other retail outlets this fall.
