The new ‘City Edition’ uniform for the Sixers pays homage to a staple of the Philadelphia community, the Liberty Bell. The uniform is a parchment colorway that features a blue “Philadelphia” cursive script wordmark across the chest. On the sides of the uniform we see the crack in the Liberty Bell displayed predominately. Located on the front hem of the jersey the phrase “Pass and Stow,” is embroidered to mimic that of the inscription on the front of the Liberty Bell, the two names are derived from Philadelphia foundry workers, John Pass and John Stow, who recast the original bell in 1753.
“It’s important to our organization to pay tribute to Philadelphia’s rich history, culture and landmarks as frequently and authentically as we can. In partnership with StubHub, we designed the City Edition jersey to celebrate the Liberty Bell, a Philadelphia icon that transcends time and brings to life a powerful symbol that unites us all. We look forward to enjoying many special moments with our fans wearing these uniforms throughout the remainder of the season.” -76ers President Chris Heck
The new ‘City Edition’ is the fifth option for the Sixers to wear this season and will get its first action Nov. 30th.
