Every WNBA ‘Rebel’ edition jersey, ranked by how cool they are

No. 4: Indiana Fever

just somethin’ about Indy 😮‍💨

— Indiana Fever (@IndianaFever) May 8, 2026 Really clean uniforms. The simple white and red with some small black accents looks great. A little piping around the neck could have set this off a little more, but the “Indy” logo is just great.

No. 5: Washington Mystics

In D.C., rhythm isn’t background. This is where you find yours on and off the court. pic.twitter.com/yOKTZmgfHw

— Washington Mystics (@WashMystics) May 8, 2026 I really do like the idea of the purple and midnight blue swirling to evoke that mystical, crystal ball vibe. Not sure how I feel about “Of Change” being under the word “District,” I don’t think that addition really does much to the jersey and clutters it up a little too much.

No. 6: Connecticut Sun

Because history deserves to be worn properly.#GetClose | #CTSunpic.twitter.com/gYxHYXfj1f

— Connecticut Sun (@ConnecticutSun) May 8, 2026 The word “Keesusk” means “Sun” in the native Mohegan language, and it’s really neat to see elements of indigenous people integrated into a jersey like this. The design work on the neck, arms, and legs really stands out, making this feel unique.

No. 7: New York Liberty

Cop your Rebel Edition 🧵’s today!

— New York Liberty (@nyliberty) May 8, 2026 It’s … fine. I like the radiating pinstripes being a new way to throw linework on a jersey, but the font feels wrong for the vibe of the uniform overall. Would have like to see something that felt a little more crafted and bespoke.

No. 8: Minnesota Lynx

NEW REBEL THREADS ARE HERE. pic.twitter.com/PHinDweFbb

— Minnesota Lynx (@minnesotalynx) May 8, 2026 The cat print on the sides is great along with the ear tufts being evoked in the letter work. The only downside to this jersey is the goofy lynx on the waistband, which really didn’t need to be on this uniform at all.

No.9: Chicago Sky

from blueprints to blue threads 🧵

— Chicago Sky (@chicagosky) May 8, 2026 I’m okay with a wordmark not being symmetrical, but this one just really irks me. The color and design are both solid overall, but having the peak of “SKYTOWN” happening three letters in to a seven-letter word gets under my skin. I also think the term “Skytown” is a little too on the nose. Yes, we get you’re the Sky and the term for Chicago is Chi-town, but I didn’t need the pun.

No. 10: Seattle Storm

Dom x @nikebasketball Rebel Edition 🪡

Available now at pic.twitter.com/lzQ8BVOm2l

— Seattle Storm (@seattlestorm) May 8, 2026 Really torn on this one. I like the front of the uniform, including the weather-shifted look of the number and the off-kilter wording, but I’m still deciding on the photorealistic storm clouds on the side. I can’t decide if I really like them, or I hate them.

No. 11: Las Vegas Aces

New threads in Sin City red 🎰

Available now on . pic.twitter.com/51tWzeD02f

— Las Vegas Aces (@LVAces) May 8, 2026 Zero inspiration. Yes, you got in the Vegas font … cool. You could ask anyone to design a new jersey for Vegas and get 20 cliched versions of this look.

No. 12: Golden State Valkyries

For everyone who fought for this game. And for everyone carrying it forward.

The new @nikebasketball Rebel Edition Jersey is now available. pic.twitter.com/9uAkYYHbUa

— Golden State Valkyries (@valkyries) May 8, 2026 They took the uniform and put it in black with some geometric work. It’s fine, but doesn’t make me feel anything either good or bad.

No. 13: Phoenix Mercury

Inspired by the city and dedicated to the fans — the X is for the X-Factor. pic.twitter.com/3tqUFkV7ZK

— Phoenix Mercury (@PhoenixMercury) May 8, 2026 This looks like the logo for a crypto company.

No. 14: Toronto Tempo

Borealis Blue, Tempo Bordeaux and our iconic six speed lines headline these uniforms – with our city and country woven in every stitch.

The Toronto Tempo @NikeBasketball Rebel Edition is designed with intention from head to toe.@CIBC | Sephora Canada pic.twitter.com/asjRFJilnX

— Toronto Tempo (@TempoBasketball) May 8, 2026 It’s difficult to branch out in your first year, but I really don’t understand what this evokes about Toronto at all. Basically, this looks like a normal jersey without anything special or unique. Didn’t pass the assignment.

No. 15: Los Angeles Sparks

Inspired by creators, risk-takers, & culture shapers. pic.twitter.com/Zw9u7Omaaj

— Los Angeles Sparks (@LASparks) May 8, 2026 Wut. The design is okay, but there’s nothing about this uniform that even feels like the Sparks anymore. It’s as if everything was stripped out of the franchise and handed over to the old New Orleans Pelicans. This really doesn’t work. If it’s inspired by “risk takers,” they should have played it safe.
