[Chicagolander]

L.A. really needs to throw away the black and the white jerseys that they currently have and just make the purples their mains and create gold and white versions of that sweater to create their third and away jerseys.

[walter from LA]

i want the black and silver logos back, the logo now is very early 2000s... it looks shoddy and i don't like the purple without the gold AT ALL

[Ted from Northfield, IL]

Agree with Chicagolander. Bring back the Purple and Gold (White would be nice too). Those unis from 1960s were classy, unique, and stood out. How much more uniform black can anyone stand?

[Pensfan]

I agree with Ted. Maybe LA could get away with gold away jerseys.

Also, has anyone noticed the "KINGS" word mark on the alternates helmet looks like a version of the lakers logo?

[Chris]

PensFan: It's actually the wordmark that the Kings used from 1988 to 1998 on their black and silver uniforms.

[cr8erh8er]

I like the purple, gold and white ideas - they would look like the Ice Lakers.

[Nathan]

I have such an opposite opinion of this than most.

I hate the throwback purple and gold and love their new black and white.

[CHIfanAl]

Purple and gold baby! not this ugly black and silver 2011-2012 home, away jerseys.

[Kris]

IMO, the white jersey looks retarded with that tail stripe and thinner arm stripe. I wouldn't have done those things.

[db123]

i cant decide if the old jerseys (07-11) have a blue trim or a purple trim. Most of the time they seem blue, but other times like on this site theyre purple

[Chase]

I like the black and silver they have now, and would love to see the purple and gold become a full-on alternate. The black and purple is just too much black in the color scheme.

[adevandry]

DB123, it's purple, not blue. TVs have trouble broadcasting that hue for some reason.

[krendelev]

L.A. needs to go back to their original Purple and Yellow, every other uniform they've had has sucked.

[Deebow]

Purple and Gold could be nice if done right. For example, I hate the Lakers home and away jerseys, but their white alternate are really nice and they show how good Purple and Gold can go together. The original Kings jerseys are atrocious. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing one of those jerseys. The 80-88 jerseys were an improvement with the added white stripes, but still weren't that great.

Though, I like the current jerseys the Kings have. The away jerseys are especially nice and it looks good on TV.

[CD]

Whats with the captain's "C" on the uniform? It is different from the other fonts on the uniforms. Is there some historic significance?
