Vancouver Grizzlies Jerseys

A Vancouver Grizzlies jersey from a specific season looks different in three places before you notice the logo: the collar, the side panels, and the weight of the number.

Everything on this page is a fixed design. Nothing here will change next season, which is the point.

Short answer: How do you choose between the three Vancouver Grizzlies 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.

Teal and purple. Colourways from different eras are not the same shade, so match against the photo rather than the era name. Applies to Vancouver Grizzlies; each product page carries its own chart.

What actually differs between them

The one thing that actually varies.

Full breakdown

The one thing that actually varies

Six seasons in Canada and a palette that has nothing in common with the current Memphis identity. Teal and purple is the marker, and it is an unusually bright palette for an NBA franchise of that period, which is part of why these designs are still collected. Every design on this page is permanently retired and will not be reissued.

Frequently asked questions

6questionsHow do I know which era a Vancouver Grizzlies jersey is from?

1How do I know which era a Vancouver Grizzlies jersey is from?

Start with the collar, then check for side panels and whether the number has an outline. Two matching details will place it; one detail on its own will not.

2Are vintage Vancouver Grizzlies jerseys more expensive than current ones?

Usually, and the reason is the build. Vintage lines use a heavier mesh and a substantial collar because the period look depends on both.

3What did Vancouver Grizzlies jerseys look like?

Teal and purple, in a light late-1990s cut. The palette is entirely different from the navy and light blue the franchise uses in Memphis, so colour identifies the era immediately.

4Which Vancouver Grizzlies seasons are worth picking?

The 1990s set is the one most people come for, and the 2000s run holds up just as well if you prefer the cleaner graphics of that period. What matters more than any single season is whether you want a design you have not already seen worn on a weekly basis.

5What is the difference between a throwback Vancouver Grizzlies jersey and a current one?

A throwback design stays exactly as it was, season after season, because it is tied to a specific year. A current design changes with the season. If you want a design that looks the same every time you wear it, take the throwback.

6Are older Vancouver Grizzlies jerseys smaller than current ones?

Patterns shift slightly year to year, so an older design can sit differently on the same chest measurement. Check the flat-garment chest width on the product page rather than assuming the current size chart applies.
