Pelicans reveal new Statement Edition uniforms for 2023-24 season

The Pelicans have unveiled their new Statement Edition uniforms for the 2023-24 season. The new uniforms celebrate the Crescent City, the nickname for New Orleans, and its unique location on the bend of the Mississippi River.

The new uniforms have a different collar, new number style and say “Crescent City” instead of “Pelicans” to match our Crescent City Basketball identity.

“The Pelicans re-designed Statement Edition uniforms bring a vintage feel that represents our young franchise and gives a unique take on the red uniform that continues to complement our navy and white uniforms,” said Pelicans Senior Vice President, Chief Operating Officer Ben Hales. “The Pelicans 2023-24 Statement Edition uniform honors our home, the Crescent City.”

This is the first major change to the red uniforms since they were introduced in the 2014-2015 season.

The new Pelicans Statement Edition jerseys will go on sale online and at the Team Store at the Smoothie King Center on Aug. 1.

Fans can also buy Statement Edition-inspired merchandise like hoodies, shirts, hats, koozies and more at the Pelicans Team Store at the Smoothie King Center.
