Denver Nuggets Jerseys

Every Denver Nuggets supporter ends up asking the same question first: which cut actually holds up. This page is the answer, laid out build by build.

The team colourway is fixed, the build is not. That is the single decision that matters most on this page.

Short answer: How do you choose between the three Denver Nuggets jerseys, and what size should you order? Work out how often it gets worn first and what size you actually need — that one answer rules out two of the three builds before you compare anything else.

Key facts about Denver Nuggets

Frequently asked questions

7questionsWhat sizes does the Denver Nuggets range come in?

1What sizes does the Denver Nuggets range come in?

S–XXL across men's, women's and youth cuts, with S–XXL Big & Tall on selected builds. The size selector on each product page lists what is actually in stock.

2Which Denver Nuggets build should I buy for regular wear?

The light printed build. It is the most breathable and the easiest to wear for hours, and it survives washing better than the heavier alternatives.

3What does teal on a Denver Nuggets jersey mean?

It marks the 1990s and early-2000s alternate identity. The current designs are navy and gold, so teal is a reliable signal that you are looking at the older alternate rather than a current home design.

4What size Denver Nuggets jersey should I get for a 6 foot player?

A 6 foot player usually lands in a large in the mid-weight build. Measure chest width across the flat garment and double it, then match that number to the size chart on the product page. If the chest measurement sits between two sizes, take the larger one: the mid-weight build has less give than the light printed one.

5Can I wear a Denver Nuggets jersey over a hoodie?

Yes, and the light printed build is the one to pick for it. It sits closer to the body and does not bulk up at the shoulders, so a hoodie still fits underneath. The mid-weight and display builds are cut wider through the chest and read better on their own.

6Is there a Denver Nuggets jersey that works as a gift without knowing the size?

The custom name and number route is the safest one. Choose the size from the chest measurement rather than from height, and leave the name field open if you are buying for someone whose spelling you want to confirm.

7What colourway should I get for a Denver Nuggets game day?

Home colourway is what most people reach for on a game day. The colourway itself is fixed by the team, so the only real choice is the season design, and those rotate year to year.
