"The Cleveland Cavaliers are revisiting an iconic era in their franchise history with their 2025-26 Classic Edition uniforms. Cleveland unveiled the uniform Wednesday, a revamped version of the navy blue alternate threads the team wore from 2005 to '10 -- a period that notably includes the then- LeBron James-led 2006-07 team that made a run to the 2007 NBA Finals. The team is also using the jerseys to celebrate the franchise's 55th anniversary."
"The look, which the Cavaliers described as an "exact replica" in a news release, features a deep navy blue base, with wine and gold retro motifs. "Cleveland" is displayed on the chest of the jersey in the team's early 2000s-themed throwback font with a gold outline. Players' names and numbers are displayed in white lettering with a gold outline on the back."
"Shorts for the look include Cleveland's iconic throwback "C" logo that features a sword piercing. Both the jersey and shorts are trimmed with the wine, navy and gold striped trim. According to the Cavaliers, the original alternate uniforms were a nod to the "Miracle of Richfield" jerseys from the 1970s -- an old-school look with white, yellow and red striped trimming that honored the 1975-76 season. Cleveland will pair the jerseys with a Classic Edition court, which features elements from the 2000s-era Cavaliers' hardwood."
