This evening the Chicago White Sox unveiled their 2025 Nike City Connect uniform, which I feel is destined to become an all-time favorite for fans. This year’s City Connect uniform sees the Sox combining with arguably the most culturally iconic franchise our city has to offer in the Chicago Bulls.
Though I’m a self-admitted Cubs fan, I have always said that the White Sox have a better and more iconic look, and I feel like that chasm will widen even further with these new uniforms. Bulls fans will recognize the red base, the lettering, and the numbers. The White Sox add their signature pinstripes and the winged sock to the sleeves. One of my favorite details in this uniform is the neckline, which lists the franchises’ championship years.
The White Sox will debut the uniform on field when the team takes on Houston at home on Friday, May 2 at 6:40 p.m.
Check out the design details for Chicago Bulls-inspired Chicago White Sox 2025 Nike City Connect uniform below via a press release:
- “CHICAGO” Wordmark: The uniform features the Bulls letters across the chest, echoing the iconic White Sox wordmarks of the 1930s and serving as a powerful declaration of city pride.
- Winged Sock: The newly designed winged sock draws inspiration from the iconic White Sox era of the 1950s.
- *Crossover Tag: *A crossover uniting the NBA and MLB, this co-branded tag symbolizes the convergence of court and field.
- “SOUTHSIDE”: As a nod to the initial White Sox City Connect Jersey, “SOUTHSIDE” is etched around the sleeve and down the pant leg.
- Neckline Detail: The neckline features the teams’ combined nine championships.
- BRED Cap: The BRED Cap showcases the winged Sox logo. Four Chicago stars adorn the eyelets, and inside the hat, classic white with black pinstripes and “Southside” represent the White Sox jersey and bold red pinstripes on a black base recall the Bulls jersey.
- City Pinstripes Cap: As the first MLB team with two City Connect caps, this design proudly showcases the red and black pinstripes from the uniform and includes four stars representing Chicago’s rich heritage.
