There’s never a bad time for the Chicago Bulls to go back to the Michael Jordan well.<\/p>\n

The franchise did so Tuesday, revealing a new set of Statement Edition uniforms for the 2025-26 season that feature a black-and-red pinstripe look harkening back to their dominant era of the 1990s. It’s the first time they’ve used the look since the 2012-13 season.<\/p>\n

Per ESPN<\/a>, the Bulls introduced the look in the 1995-96 season and used it again in 1996-97, 2007-08 and 2012-13.<\/p>\n

To honor the occasion, Chicago turned to Dennis Rodman, who won two championships while wearing these uniforms alongside Jordan, for a video reacting to the look with current players Coby White and Matas Buzelis.<\/p>\n

“These are nice,” Rodman said in the Bulls’ video. “I remember when we first introduced this. It was legendary, man, these jerseys right here are legendary. It’s not even a throwback. It’s, like, brand-new for the new generation.<\/p>\n

“This is gonna be really cool for Chicago … this brings back memories.”<\/p>\n

The Bulls aren’t the first Jerry Reinsdorf-owned team to add black-and-red pinstripes this year, as the Chicago White Sox also introduced a City Connect in May as a nod to the Bulls<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But while the 2025-26 Bulls might dress like the Jordan Bulls, next season’s team isn’t expected to be quite as dominant. They currently hold the 22nd-best title odds at BetMGM (+50000) after going 39-43 last season, with former Cleveland Cavaliers wing Isaac Okoro and first-round pick Noa Essengue representing their only major additions in the offseason.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There’s never a bad time for the Chicago Bulls to go back to the Michael Jordan well.
