Chicago Bulls Jerseys: Home, Icon& Statement
Chicago BullsSix rings, two three-peats, and the red that changed the sport
The club that made basketball global. Six championships between 1991 and 1998, two separate three-peats, and not one Finals series lost — the only franchise that can say that.
The short version
Thirty seconds on who this club is and what its jersey means to the people who wear them.
The Bulls were founded on 16 January 1966 and played their first game in the 1966-67 season. For the first quarter-century they were a competitive club without a championship, and then everything changed at once: a coach named Phil Jackson, a forward named Scottie Pippen, and a guard from North Carolina who turned the league into a global product.
Six championships in eight years, split into two three-peats with a retirement in between. The Bulls are the only NBA team to have won multiple championships without ever losing a Finals series. That record is the reason this jersey needs no introduction anywhere in the world.

What they have won
The record as it stands. A club's honours are also the reason certain jerseys exist at all — anniversary designs are not random.

Numbers this club has taken out of circulation. Half the throwbacks on the shelf exist because of one of them.
The story so far
Where the club came from, and why the jersey means what it means.
The 1995-96 team won 72 games, a record that stood for two decades until Golden State took it. That figure is part of the folklore now, and it is why the designs from the middle of that decade carry a particular weight among collectors.
The red and black is also one of the most influential colourways in the history of sportswear. It moved out of the arena and into street fashion in a way that almost no other jersey has managed, which means the design gets worn by people who never watched a game — and it still works.
The Chicago Bulls founded in 1966, play out of United Center in Chicago, Illinois, compete in the Central Division of the Eastern Conference and wear red, black, white. The club's championship record reads: 6 NBA championships (1991, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1997, 1998).
Walk into the building and the rafters tell you the rest: #1, #4, #10, #23 and #33 are all retired, hanging above the floor as a reminder of how long this club has mattered to the people who follow it. If your reason for buying a Chicago Bulls jersey is a specific era, one of those numbers is almost certainly why.
On the shelf you will find Hardwood Classics, Icon Edition, Statement Edition, City Edition and Association Edition, pulled from seasons running from 2010/11 through 2023/24. The names people ask for most are Michael Jordan, Zach LaVine, Scottie Pippen and Caleb Wilson — if you have someone specific in mind, that is where to look first.
The colourways, explained
Chicago Bulls has stock across Hardwood Classics, Icon Edition, Statement Edition, City Edition and Association Edition. Before you pick one, it is worth knowing what separates them — the editions are genuinely different pieces of the club's identity, not colour swaps of the same shirt.
Hardwood Classics Throwback line
The throwback lane — older designs, older typefaces, sometimes whole eras brought back for a season. These are the jerseys that get worn by people who remember the run the first time around.
Icon The primary colourway
The one you picture when you close your eyes. Icon takes the club's primary colour as its base and dresses the whole jersey in it, which is why it reads loudest from the top of the upper deck. If you only ever own one, this is usually the one.
Statement The alternate
The third look, and the one the design team gets to have fun with — darker bases, bolder trim, sometimes an entirely new colour introduced for a single season. Statement jerseys are where a club's graphics department says something.
City Redesigned every year
The one that changes annually. City jerseys dig into the city rather than the club — a neighbourhood, a moment in local history, a piece of street art — and they only ever run for a single season. That is exactly why they age well: the year on the label tells a story later. If you like your jerseys to mean something specific, start here.
Whose name to put on the back
Most people arrive knowing the name they want. These are the ones we carry for Chicago Bulls — the ones with a full page are marked.
Swingman, Replica, or Custom?
The build matters as much as the colourway. Here is what actually separates them, in plain terms.
Swingman The standard fan build
The fan jersey most people mean. Light mesh, stitched or heat-pressed lettering and numbers, and a cut that sits properly on the body without being tight. It is the right answer for roughly nine out of ten people, and it holds up to actual wear rather than hanging in a wardrobe.
Replica Lighter on the wallet
A simpler build — printed detailing rather than heavier applied lettering, and a lighter hand overall. If you want the look at the lowest entry point, this is where you start. It is not trying to be the on-court jersey.
Custom Your name, your number
Blank or pick-your-own — a name and a number of your choosing. It is the answer when the exact player is not in stock, when it is a gift for someone whose favourite never got a jersey, or when you simply want your own name across the back.
Player Edition Closest to on-court
Built to the specification the players actually wear. Heavier fabric, deeper detail, and a fit that is intentionally athletic rather than relaxed. Pick this if you care about the details people only notice up close.
Sizes and who they are for
Jerseys are cut to be worn over something else, which is why the tag size never quite matches a t-shirt. Here is how the runs differ.
Adult Standard sizes
The standard adult run. Jerseys are cut to be worn over a t-shirt, so the shoulder sits slightly wide by design — that is the silhouette, not a sizing error. If you want it fitted, size down; if you want the baggy look most people are after, stay true.
Women's Tapered cut
A narrower shoulder, a shorter body and a waist that actually tapers. Same design, drawn for a different frame rather than simply scaled down.
Youth For younger fans
Sized for kids and cut a little more forgivingly, because it is going to be worn hard. Worth checking the size guide against a favourite t-shirt rather than guessing from age.
Big & Tall Extra length
Added length and width for taller or broader frames. Same jersey, more room, without the shoulders drifting halfway down the arm.
