Spurs uniforms, court get '60s makeover in nod to Hemisfair

The newly designed City Edition court and uniforms for the Spurs highlight Hemisfair and the Tower of the Americas.

Driving the news: The team unveiled the court and uniforms Thursday. A retail collection is on sale at the Spurs Fan Shop and online.

Zoom in: Hemisfair was the site of the 1968 World's Fair in San Antonio. The new uniform design is influenced by the style of the late 1960s, with an Earth-toned palette of brown and orange, accented by pink, yellow and green on the shorts.

• The logo features the Tower of the Americas, which was built for the 1968 World's Fair.
• "Viva Spurs" is emblazoned on the court and above the jock tag on each jersey.

What they're saying: "The World's Fair was the first officially designated international exposition in the Southwest United States and made the late '60s a pivotal time in our city," Becky Kimbro, senior vice president of brand engagement for Spurs Sports & Entertainment, said in a statement.

• "We saw this era as the perfect illustration of the growth and vibrancy embodied by both our community and our team."

What's next: The Spurs will wear the new uniforms for the first time on Nov. 10 at the Frost Bank Center when they take on the Minnesota Timberwolves in the in-season tournament.

• The City Edition court will appear for the first time on Nov. 20 when the Spurs host the Los Angeles Clippers.
• There will be 10 City Night games throughout the season.
