==="City Edition" uniforms===
Nike also provides a fourth uniform known as the "City Edition", which honors the city of Cleveland as well as the state of Ohio:
* For the 2017–18 season, the "City Edition" uniform was gray with dark gray trim and had "The Land" (a popular Cleveland nickname) across the front of the jersey in white letters and trimmed in dark gray and gold (as is the number on the front of the jersey), with the player's name and number in white lettering on the back.<ref>{{cite news|title=The Cavaliers Unveil City Edition Uniform|url=http://www.nba.com/cavaliers/features/city-edition-uniform-171227|publisher=NBA Media Ventures, LLC|website=NBA.com|date=December 27, 2017|access-date=April 29, 2018|archive-date=April 23, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180423021014/http://www.nba.com/cavaliers/features/city-edition-uniform-171227|url-status=live}}</ref>
* For the 2018–19 season, the "City Edition" uniform was orange and blue (a nod to the popular Cavs teams of the 1980s) in a zigzag/slash pattern (reminiscent of the '90s-era uniforms) with white letters and numbers, and featured a script "Cleveland" across the front of the jersey. On the right pant leg, an outline of the [[Great Lakes]] (with [[Lake Erie]] highlighted) is featured with the slogan "1 OUT OF 5 GREATS." For the home games in which these uniforms were worn, the floor at Quicken Loans Arena was modified with an orange and blue design, as well.<ref>{{cite web |last1=Hlavaty |first1=Kaylyn |title=People have very strong opinions about the Cavs' new City Edition uniforms |url=https://www.news5cleveland.com/sports/basketball/cavaliers/cavs-city-edition-uniforms |website=WEWS |access-date=November 29, 2019 |date=November 8, 2018 |archive-date=April 20, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190420033114/https://www.news5cleveland.com/sports/basketball/cavaliers/cavs-city-edition-uniforms |url-status=live }}</ref> The same uniform design of the "City Edition" uniform was used for the team's "Earned Edition" uniform (exclusive to the 2018 NBA playoff teams), except the top part was white, while the bottom was powder blue and featured navy letters and numbers.<ref>{{cite news|title=Cavaliers Unveil Cleveland Earned Edition Uniform|url=https://www.nba.com/cavaliers/releases/2018-earned-jersey|publisher=NBA Media Ventures, LLC|website=NBA.com|date=December 12, 2018|access-date=August 28, 2019|archive-date=August 29, 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190829000139/https://www.nba.com/cavaliers/releases/2018-earned-jersey|url-status=live}}</ref>

* For the 2020–21 season, the "City Edition" uniform was black with wine-and-gold trim around the neck and sleeves and white letters and numbers. "CLEVELAND" was featured on the front of the jersey, with each letter in a different font to represent both the Cavs and various artists and bands that have been inducted in the [[Rock and Roll Hall of Fame]], as well as various patches down the sides of the pant legs. The jersey design is in honor of a partnership between the Cavs and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, who are collaborating on a "Cleveland Amplified" exhibit at the Rock Hall. The letters represent: "C" (Cleveland Cavaliers), "L" ([[Sex Pistols]]), "E" ([[The Who]]), "V" ([[David Bowie]]), "E" ([[Metallica]]), "L" ([[The Beatles]]), "A" ([[Nirvana (band)|Nirvana]]), "N" ([[N.W.A]]) and "D" ([[Pink Floyd]]).<ref>{{cite web |title=Cleveland Cavaliers Unveil 2020-21 City Edition Uniform as an Ode to Cleveland's Rock and Roll Roots |url=https://www.nba.com/cavaliers/releases/city-uniform-201203 |website=NBA.com |access-date=December 4, 2020 |date=December 3, 2020 |archive-date=December 3, 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201203170238/https://www.nba.com/cavaliers/releases/city-uniform-201203 |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |title=There's actually a hidden meaning behind the Cavaliers' ugly City Edition jerseys |url=https://ftw.usatoday.com/2020/11/cavaliers-city-jersey-rock-band-logos-letters-twitter-nba-nike |website=ForTheWin |access-date=January 22, 2021 |date=November 30, 2020 |archive-date=January 17, 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210117070747/https://ftw.usatoday.com/2020/11/cavaliers-city-jersey-rock-band-logos-letters-twitter-nba-nike |url-status=live }}</ref>
