Ahead of their inaugural WNBA season in 2026, the Toronto Tempo are setting the pace with their new uniforms, which were unveiled on Tuesday, December 16.<\/p>\n

The Tempo gave fans the first look at their jerseys on their website and social media early Tuesday morning. Included in the launch are their \u201cTempo Bordeaux\u201d Explorer and white Heroine editions.<\/p>\n

A team to call our own. A jersey that makes it real.<\/p>\n

Both jerseys feature six \u201cspeed lines\u201d down the sides \u2014 in light blue (\u201cBorealis Blue,\u201d as the team calls it) on the Explorer jersey and in bordeaux on the Heroine jersey. The lines are thicker near the arm holes, mirroring the lines trailing from the basketball in the Tempo\u2019s primary logo<\/a>, which was officially unveiled almost exactly one year ago.<\/p>\n

These lines represent the six boroughs that make up the fabric of Toronto and the five players on the court supported by the sixth player in the game: the fans. Their movement and variation in thickness mirror the heartbeat, shifts in pace, and rhythm of both the city and the game \u2014 a nod to basketball\u2019s natural \u201ctempos\u201d and moments of momentum.<\/p>\n

The white jersey has alternating bordeaux and blue stripes around the arm holes and V-neck collar, a pattern that reverses on the bordeaux jersey. It also has \u201cTEMPO\u201d across the chest and an italicized front number, both in bordeaux with white and blue outlines. The bordeaux jersey, meanwhile, has white lettering with bordeaux and blue outlines.<\/p>\n

\u201cToday marks another meaningful milestone on our journey to bringing Canada\u2019s first WNBA team to life. Every detail of these uniforms is intentional. From the colour story to the speed lines, we\u2019ve created a design that brings our brand to life and represents our city, our fans, and our team. We cannot wait for our players \u2013 and our fans \u2013 to wear them with pride.\u201d<\/p>\n

The backs of the jerseys have the player number in the same style as on the front, only larger, and the player\u2019s name underneath. Under that is the logo of leaguewide sponsor AT&T.<\/p>\n

Both jerseys feature the logos of their founding sponsors on the front: makeup retailer Sephora on the left shoulder and bank CIBC under the front number.<\/p>\n

The Tempo will open their inaugural WNBA season in May 2026, though a detailed schedule has not yet been announced. They\u2019ll play their home games at the Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto, but they\u2019re also planning to host games in Montr\u00e9al and Vancouver in the upcoming season.<\/p>\n

The bordeaux Explorer jerseys will be available to purchase in January. Fans can sign up on the Tempo\u2019s website<\/a> to be notified when they go on sale.<\/p>\n
